Jethro is the sort of dog who picks his people carefully. He’s become clear—he’s not at ease around men, and the shelter suspects it goes back to rough handling in his past. It’s not a quick fix. Jethro can learn to trust men, but it takes consistent, patient work and he needs an adopter who really gets that. He’s looking for a strong, single woman or a very confident woman ready to put in the time to help him build trust at his own pace. Once Jethro feels comfortable, he’s a total goof. He enjoys playing with other dogs he’s met, and a canine friend in the right home could be a plus—with a meet and greet first, just to be sure. Jethro should go to an adult-only household (18+)—kids aren’t a match for him. For the right adopter, he’ll be a loyal, funny companion. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
