Meet Rocky
Rocky has an engine. He's a young, athletic dog who genuinely needs a job and a workout — a couple of real walks or a run, plus some training to channel all that drive. He's smart and food-motivated, which makes him a joy to train, but a bored Rocky will find his own entertainment. For the right active person, he's an incredible adventure partner.

What they're like at home
No aggression. High drive — channels well with training.
What they need
An adopter who can provide daily activity and structure.
Why you'll love Rocky
