Rocky, a 6-year-old Lab/Pit mix who decided that if Woody from Toy Story can be everyone’s favorite cowboy, then he can too. And quite frankly, we think he’s got the personality for it.
Now, Woody might have a snake in his boot, but Rocky? He’s got approximately 47 tennis balls to chase, a whole lot of love to give, and absolutely ZERO plans to slow down anytime soon.
At 6 years old, Rocky is technically supposed to be a mature gentleman. Unfortunately, nobody told him that. This boy wakes up every morning like Andy just walked into the room and yelled, “PLAYTIME!” He’s goofy, energetic, ridiculously affectionate, and so happy to be alive that we’re pretty sure his tail has never stopped wagging.
And just like any good cowboy, Rocky LOVES a good game of fetch. Seriously, throw the ball. He’ll bring it back. Throw it again. He’ll bring it back again. Congratulations, you’re now employed as Rocky’s personal ball launcher, and there are no scheduled breaks.
But don’t let his wild west energy fool you! This sheriff has some pretty good manners under his belt. He knows sit and lay, is housebroken, and can be trusted to roam the house while you’re at work without turning your living room into the Wild West. He’s not kennel trained, but he’s used to having free roam of the house.
Rocky has lived with kids and another dog before and has done well with cats, too! Although, much like an overexcited cowboy riding into town, he sometimes forgets his own strength and can play a little rough. Kids and furry siblings who can handle his enthusiasm would be ideal.
A fenced-in yard would be a HUGE bonus because this cowboy has some serious zoomies to get out.
But here’s the thing about Rocky. Underneath all that energy, goofiness, and enthusiasm is a dog who just wants to be somebody’s best friend.
He doesn’t need a fancy ranch, a horse named Bullseye, or a whole collection of toys that come to life when nobody’s looking. He just needs someone who will love him, play with him, laugh at his ridiculous antics, and give him the kind of forever home every good cowboy deserves.
Because at the end of the day, you’ve got a friend in Rocky. And unlike Woody, you won’t have to pull a string to hear how happy he is to see you.
