Rocky - Adopted 7/27/02
Rocky is a beautiful, friendly 2 year old Sable and
White male Collie. He is Neutered and up
to date on all his vaccinations. Rocky rides
well in the car, walks great on a lead, and
absolutely loves people, including children.
He is totally housebroken, can be trusted alone in
the house, and knows some basic obedience, (sit,
down, shake, etc.) but is still a bit rambunctious.
He still has a lot of puppy energy that will need to
be focused and appreciated.
Rocky has a sweet, loving nature and he loves
attention. He will "test the waters" with new
dogs until he finds his place in the pecking order.
Rocky has spent his life either on a leash or
chained up. He would do best with an active
family with a fenced yard where he could burn off
some excess energy. Rocky will need another
obedience class to bond with his new family and to
remind him how to listen. With the right
training he will be a wonderful family addition.
Rocky is an exceptional Collie and instantly loves
everyone he meets!

FROM BOB:
We all made it!
The most traumatic part of the
trip for Rocky was getting into the car at your
house. After that, we made several successful rest
stops and had a very relaxed ride before arriving
home about 6:30 PM.
Rocky and Lady traveled
wonderfully together and behaved like they've been
friends forever. He already understands the "no dogs
in carpeted areas" rule. Rocky & I have already done
our first boundary tour of the yard and he seems to
get that immediately also. He has met our neighbors
and thinks they're fine too.
It has been along day, though.
Rocky is totally sprawled out napping on his new
daybed. More news and pictures soon.
Thanks again to all concerned!
Rocky, Lady and Family
Rocky was fostered in Forest Lake, MN.
