Rocket, the Dog of the Day
Name: Rocket
Age: Three months old
Gender: Male Breed: Australian Shepherd, Border Collie
Home: London, Ontario, Canada
 
   This is our puppy Rocket. He's crazy, wild, and nutty. And he eats all our socks so we're going to have to go barefoot all winter! Brrr!

    Rocket's favorite game is biting our ankles and eating our socks, hats, pants and anything we plant in the back yard! We got him from a cement truck driver whose border collie (the mom) had a brief fling with an Australian shepherd (the dad).

    Rocket has one brown eye and one blue eye. When he looks at you with the brown eye, you can expect a lick. When he looks at you with the blue eye, you know mischief is coming. Sort of a Jekyll and Hyde with a warning system!

    Rocket is also very soft, loving and affectionate at times, independent at others. His best trick is that he knew to knock on the back door to go out almost from the day we got him at eight weeks. What a smart dog! Lucky for us.
