Rocky, Patterdale x, DOB 11.05



Homing Requirements: Rocky needs a terrier experienced family who can place confidence down his lead to allow him to settle outside and contain his excitement on seeing and meeting other dogs, livestock, etc. He is settling into his training and guided input and needs continuation of this, which his current owners have offered him.

His Story: Rocky's family took Rocky on in early June . They were not aware of Patterdales being livelier working type terriers. He isn't fluent with other dogs. He is attending training classes. He needs a more experienced home. Rocky is recently neutered, vax'd and chipped.

Advert: Rocky is a 4 year old Patterdale who is excitable, but will settle with consistency of approach and management. He has a broad understanding of commands which apply generally in his home, but often aren't heard once he is excited or outside. He is retained on an extender lead and has begun to develop relationships with dogs he has overcome his initial nerves with.

Rocky has been loved and is currently in loving hands. His owners however didn't appreciate what owning a Patterdale can involve. They are looking for a more relaxed and fluent dog. Rocky is bringing it all together, but his basic instincts are still excited and he has yet to learn to bring them under control. Rocky is a great Patterdale with a loyal and loving nature. He needs confident management around other dogs and children. He meets both well when guided, but couldn't live with either unless in experienced hands. Rocky is precious and now needs a terrier family who manages exits and introductions as second nature and then Rocky will begin to relax and become skilled.
