About Jerry

Jerry is one of three lively puppies born to Bella, who was surrendered along with her friend Cookie when the pups were just four days old. Since their arrival on May 4, these curious little ones have flourished in a loving foster home. Jerry is full of energy and will require plenty of time and attention as he grows. He will receive his first vaccine in the DAPP series on July 4, and will be microchipped before adoption. Neutering is scheduled for when he is old enough. If you're interested in adopting him, please apply at 3 Hearts 4 Paws. Keep in mind, they usually do not adopt out of state (NJ).
