Rocky


I talk about my dog in class sometimes. I thought my students would be interested in having a look at this cute pup! His full name is Rocky Bowser Balboa Benuci, but we just call him Rocky or Rocky Bowser.

Rocky's favorite things:
1. Playing with his rope.
2. Cuddling
3. Thinking he is tough.
4. Eating Nacho Cheese Doritos when he can get his paws on them.
5. Getting bursts of energy and running around like a crazy dog.
6. Watching Beverly Hills Chihuahua.
7. Staying away from cats. (Rocky HATES cats!)
8. Barking at the doorbell.

A Funny "Tail" About Rocky:
When Rocky was a puppy he was very clumsy. He would run into things, get stepped on, you name it. It's a miracle the dog survived. The first time Mr. McNaughton and I played catch with Rocky we were in our kitchen/family room area. We threw his rope in the kitchen thinking he would get it safely and bring it back to us. Instead, Rocky ran at full speed on the slippery kitchen floor to get his rope. By the time he put on his breaks he was sliding across the floor headfirst into the stove. Boom! He hit his head, sat there for a minute, gave himself a shake, and trotted back to us without his rope like nothing a happened. I think his pride was a little damaged that day.

My dog was the clumsiest ever when he was a puppy. He was so fat his belly drug on the ground!
