A Puppy Who Picks His People
When Betty and Chris came to Frisky Goat Ranch, they were searching for a dog to join their active outdoor lifestyle in Colorado. While most of our puppies are best suited for livestock guardian work, Rocky made it clear that he had other plans. In true Colorado Mountain Dog fashion, Rocky picked his people, choosing Betty and Chris as his perfect match.
A Life Full of Adventure and Love
Since joining his new family, Rocky has embraced an exciting and fulfilling life. His days are a mix of adventure and relaxation—whether he’s lounging on his fluffy bed surrounded by chew toys, accompanying Betty and Chris on camping trips, or enjoying playful romps at the dog park.
One of Rocky’s most remarkable moments came during a visit to the dog park, where he encountered a disabled dog. Demonstrating natural sensitivity and care, Rocky instinctively adjusted his behavior, showing a level of compassion that speaks to the intelligence and emotional depth of the breed.
Celebrating Rocky’s Unique Role
While being a companion isn’t the primary goal of our breeding program, Rocky’s story highlights the adaptability and loving nature of Colorado Mountain Dogs. His bond with Betty and Chris is heartwarming, and seeing him flourish in his role is a joy for us at Frisky Goat Ranch.
Looking to the Future
As our first litter, Litter #FGR024LIT1G4 has been a journey of learning and growth, and Rocky’s success as a companion reflects the incredible potential of these dogs. While our focus remains on breeding for livestock guardian work, Rocky’s story is a beautiful reminder of how deeply these dogs can connect with their families when given the chance.
Here’s to Rocky and the many adventures ahead with Betty and Chris! 🐾
