Rocky Jack Russell Terrier Los Angeles, CA

Meet Rocky!

A spirited two-year-old Jack Russell Terrier mix from Santa Cruz, CA, whose essence is a vibrant burst of joy wrapped in a striking white coat with black patches and faint black spots. This medium-sized, thirty-pound bundle of energy is more than just a pretty face—he's a smart pup eager to learn and love!

Rocky is the epitome of a constant companion! He adores being with his family and thrives on the love and attention they give him. His favorite activities include chewing on his toys, going for invigorating walks, and cuddling up for some snuggle time. Rocky’s love for his chew toys is legendary, and his walk times are moments he looks forward to every day. If you’re looking for a furry friend to join you on your morning and evening walks, Rocky is your guy!

In terms of training, Rocky is a star pupil! He has received formal obedience training and knows commands such as "heel," "place," "no," "sit," "down," "break," and the always-appreciated "good boy." This intelligent pup is eager to learn and responds well to positive reinforcement, making him a joy to train and a pleasure to be around.

Rocky does well with young children and tends to be cautious with other dogs at first. However, once he gets to know his furry friends, he plays well and enjoys their company! He is also friendly towards cats, making him a versatile companion for various types of households.

This charming terrier mix is also crate trained, house-trained, neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. With his health in check and his training well underway, Rocky is ready to bring his joyful spirit into a new loving home!

Rocky’s herding instincts have been honed through training, and he has learned to stay in place until given the "break" command. He is comfortable being left alone for short periods, though he thrives best with a routine that includes two meals a day and regular walks.

The most endearing thing about Rocky is his love for snuggles! After a day of play and learning, he loves nothing more than curling up with his family for some quality cuddle time. He’s a medium-energy dog who will match his pace to yours, whether it’s a lively game of fetch or a lazy afternoon nap.

If you’re looking for a smart, loving, and well-trained companion who will bring endless joy and snuggles into your life, Rocky is waiting to meet you!
