My personality

Why I need a new home

Does not get along with other pet

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:


Rocky is a playful, loyal and strong companion. He is great with our 3 elementary/middle school aged kids. He has been professionally trained through Off Leash K9 out of Greensboro,NC and knows commands sit, place/stay, come. He is very food motivated so the sky is the limit on training him new things. He enjoys playing fetch and swimming (which is rare for a boxer). He is a good walker for a handler who commands authority. He has been working through some anxiety around other dogs while on walks but usually putting him in sit until the stimulus passes fixes things. Recently he and his littermate have been fighting over attention and hence the need to re-home. He has not shown aggression toward other dogs he has come in contact with. This is an athletic smart breed and will need regular exercise and structured tasks.
