Rocky

Rocky is a Basenji Mix who will be 2 years old on approximately April 1, 2010 and weighs 16 pounds. I adopted him from my local animal shelter when he was just 6 weeks old.

Rocky is full of energy and spunk, and loves to go for walks and be outside! He is crate trained and sleeps in his crate at night. Rocky does have some of the Basenji characteristics such as making crying sounds most of the time instead of barking. He is also very stubborn, although he can sit and stay for a moment. He listens well most of the time when he's told to get off the couch or get in his crate, but he always grumbles while he's doing it.

Rocky needs a new forever home because I have 5 dogs and I have realized that Rocky needs to be in a home where he is the only dog or maybe with only one other dog that he approves of. He is a sweet, loveable dog who needs a lot of attention and love. If you would be interested in adopting Rocky please e-mail me at: <mary1105@aol.com>
