From REACH Rescue, Inc

At 11 years young, Rocky has officially earned his title as a professional couch companion, expert snuggler, and certified Good Boy! Rocky is a neutered, potty-trained, crate-trained Rat Terrier who is sweet, laid-back, and simply wants to love his person and be loved in return. He has a wonderfully calm nature and thrives in a peaceful environment with a person who enjoys having a loyal little shadow by their side.Rocky is very well house-trained and has never had an accident in the house. He has a great routine and will come to you when he needs to go outside. He LOVES going out and enjoys taking his time to investigate all those important neighborhood smells. His ideal walks aren't about rushing, they're about stopping to smell EVERYTHING!He's still working on his leash manners, but he responds beautifully to a calm voice and positive reinforcement. In fact, Rocky absolutely soaks up a good "Good Boy!" after a walk or when he does something right. Rocky loves most people and other dogs and has shown that he can handle unexpected situations calmly. When he encountered an aggressive dog while out walking, he simply redirected and did wonderfully. His foster has found that…

In the rescue's own words, as they published it.
