Hi there! Rocky - M here.
I'm a German Shepherd who knows what I want—a confident handler, a secure yard, and someone ready to invest in training so I can show you my best self.
Word is I'm a championship snuggler. I don't like to brag, but the notes don't lie.
I'm still young and full of beans, with a whole lot of love (and the occasional zoomie) saved up for the right person.
I'm on the bigger side — which, if you ask me, is just more of me to hug.
I've been holding down the fort in Tampa, hoping someone like you would wander by.
Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.
With a little luck, Labor Day could be my first one in a real home — possibly with you, or with someone you send my way.
Anyway, thank you for reading all the way to the end. Not everyone does, and I noticed. — Rocky - M

About Rocky - M
Spay/Neuter of dog is scheduled at a vet of our choosing and is part of the adoption fee - date will be on the adoption contract - this is if not already sterilized. We take the dogs that are adopted down...so if a dog is on the website they are available. Obedience training and fully fenced in yard is required for all our pups. Completion certificate for training needs to be emailed once complete. When applying pictures/videos of your fully enclosed yard is needed. Please only send inquiries to the email in this bio all others will not be answered. Please read the bio before sending questions - we answer all we know about the dog here. If the question is not answered in the bio please send emails to info@HeidisLegacyDogRescue.com Meet Rocky! He is a spirited, affectionate boy with a big personality. He loves cuddling, plays as hard as he sleeps, and will happily share his space. He is highly treat-motivated and sleeps quietly through the night. He's currently looking for a patient family who can help him continue his training. Why You'll Love Rocky: Total Cuddle Bug: He is incredibly affectionate and loves nothing more than snuggling up with his humans once he's all tuckered out. Sleeps Hard, Plays Hard: He has a zest for play but is excellent at settling down and knows how to sleep soundly through the night in his own bed. Social & Sharing: He loves wrestling and playing with his big foster sister and doesn't mind sharing his toys. The Way to His Heart: He is highly treat-motivated, which will make teaching him new tricks an absolute breeze. His Quirks (The Fun Stuff!): No Leashes, Yet: He is still learning the ropes of leash walking and is looking for a patient family to help him build his confidence outdoors. Squeaky Toy Phobia: For some reason, he is a bit scared of squeaky toys, so he prefers them silent! If you are looking for a loyal, energetic, and loving companion, Rocky is your guy! Rocky absolutely loves the companionship and will do best when he has a canine friend or two to follow. Because of this, he will only be placed in a home that already has another dog. Rocky's adoption fee is $500 - Obedience training and fully fenced in yard is required for all our pups.
