Description:

If you are looking for the sweetest goofball to join your family, look no further than Rocky! Rocky is a 7-month-old Labrador Retriever mix and currently weighs about 45 lb, but his gangly legs and large paws prove he is going to be a big boy when fully grown! He has the cutest floppy ears and big smile that melt your heart! Rocky wants nothing more than to be around people and share the love he has to give. He is always ready to cuddle and loves to fall asleep in the middle of a hug with his head on your shoulder and during head scratchies. Rocky is the perfect older puppy because he loves to play and do zoomies around the backyard with his 4-year-old foster brother dog, but he is excellent at understanding when to take a break from the fun and let others have their space. He loves to play a game of tug with his foster brother, but also enjoys a good chew toy and will keep himself occupied for a while. For a puppy, Rocky is very laidback and is often even more mellow than he is energetic. He enjoys the peace of brief naps throughout the day which makes him a great work-from-home companion! Rocky has been very well behaved in his foster home and is quickly learning all of his manners! He does not jump on furniture unless invited and sits politely during mealtimes, never begging for food. Rocky's a great eater when it's time for his own meals, though! He has not had any accidents in the house and is doing very well with crate training, sleeping completely through the night without a peep as long as the crate is in a room with his people. Rocky does very well in the car and doesn't whine or get sick. He is a natural on the leash, though he also loves to stop and smell the roses and check out other humans and dogs passing by. Rocky is a very smart boy and with consistent training, he will be the perfect addition to outings and adventures with his forever family. Rocky is a true gem of a dog and his forever family will be the luckiest people to have him join them. He will provide nothing but joy, fun, and love forever! Apply to adopt Rocky today so you don't waste any more time without this incredible boy in your lives! Rocky is neutered, up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations, and microchipped. **Please note: completing an "adoption inquiry" via Adopt-a-pet/Petfinder does not constitute an HFG Dog Rescue adoption application. All adoption applications must be completed on www.hfgdr.org** HFG Dog Rescue is a 100 percent foster-based rescue located in Berkeley Heights, NJ with a sister location, The Almost Home Wellness Center, in Aiken, SC. All of our dogs are rescued from kill shelters in SC + GA and once ready for adoption live in loving local NJ foster homes until they find forever families of their own. Our fosters begin basic training, housebreaking, and leash-walking skills to help pair you with the perfect pup for life!
