About Gerald
Meet Gerald, affectionately known as Gerry—a ten-year-old brindle and cream terrier mix with a taste for plush furniture and an absurd devotion to fetch. Gerry is the sort of dog who claims every couch and lap as his territory while graciously sharing space with respectful humans. Despite his chill, pampered air, Gerry lights up at the sight of a tennis ball, showing a single-minded, almost professional commitment to fetch. Give him a sprinkler and you'll witness some of the most determined (if lopsided) water 'combat' you've ever seen. Gerry lives serenely alongside children as young as two—he’s a seasoned snuggler and nightly bedtime companion. He's also proven his adaptability with cats, respecting their domain after a brief phase of overzealous greetings, and he bonds over shared naps with other relaxed dogs. Gerald’s only caution is that new animal friendships should start slow, as his initial excitement can be, well, a bit much. He’s a silly, affectionate guy who thrives in homes looking for a loyal goofball with just enough wisdom to keep things running smoothly. Gerry is already neutered, fully vaccinated, and house trained, making him an easy fit for families or singles alike. He’s waiting in Silver Spring, MD for someone to make him part of their story. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
