Meet Rocket Dog Truckee! Truckee is a sweet 7 month old puppy with a heart of gold. He loves to be pet and is affectionate and friendly, especially with those he knows and trusts. He has a lot of energy, and loves to run and play. He likes to stay close to his owner and is getting pretty well recall trained. He is being crate trained—he sleeps in his crate at night, and is quite happy going for drives while sitting in the back of the car in his crate. He chases the ball but he is still learning to bring it back all the way. He belongs in an active family who will take him on regular walks, hikes or runs outdoors. When given the choice he will go to the bathroom outside, but he needs to be given regular bathroom breaks, especially when he is in a new home or a friend’s home.
Truckee is a smart dog and will be easy to train—he would love to find a forever home that will help to train him in the basics and he eventually may enjoy agility training. He is eager to please and loves to do things for treats and affection. Truckee loves to chew on bones, raw hide, and the beef braids, chase kongs, and tug on his rope toy. At first he is shy with new people. He gets on well with other dogs but can be intimidated by larger dogs who come at him quickly (he usually runs over to us when this happens). This boy gets lots of complements on his pretty color and athletic build. He is going to make a loyal, devoted pet for life. For puppies we require them to go to doggie school, so they can be the best dog for your home.
