About Jerry

Jerry is a handsome, medium-sized yellow Labrador Retriever mix around three years old. His days are happiest when spent outdoors, running and playing, and he makes quick friends with other dogs. Jerry is fully house-trained and crate-trained, so he’s ready for a home that appreciates a dog with established routines. He tends to warm up most quickly to women and does best when new introductions happen slowly, on his terms. Jerry forms deep bonds with his main caregiver but needs a quiet home with no children, and an owner who is patient and committed to helping him settle in. If that sounds like the household you can provide, Jerry will return your trust with affectionate loyalty and playfulness. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
