Hi, I’m Rocky

**🐾 Meet Rocky - A Smart & Independent Adventure Buddy 🐾**

Hey there, I'm Rocky, a handsome Border Collie with a sharp mind and a love for sniffing out life's little mysteries! 🐶✨ I can be a bit independent and enjoy doing my own thing, but once I get to know you, I really appreciate **gentle affection and quality time** together.

I'm super **scent-driven**, so I'd thrive with **sniffari walks, scent games, and enrichment activities** to keep my brain busy! New places can feel a little overwhelming at first, so I need a family who will **take things slow** and let me settle into my new home before jumping into big adventures.

I do best in a **calm home** with patient humans who will let me **set the pace** for interaction and handling. If I ever feel nervous, having a **quiet space like a crate** where I can relax would really help. I'd also love someone who is home most of the time, so we can work on building my confidence with being alone gradually.

If you have **older kids or teenagers** who understand that I need my space sometimes, I'd be happy to meet them! I also need to meet any **potential dog siblings**-I can be a little vocal in new situations, but I do settle with time, and I'd likely do best with a **calm canine companion**.

With the right family, I know I'll be a **loyal, loving, and fun adventure buddy**. Are you the one for me? 🏡🐾💙
