My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Jerry is a sweet and shy pup who’s looking for a patient and loving forever home! I had the pleasure of taking Jerry out for a walk, and he’s a fantastic little walker. He doesn’t pull on the leash and takes his time to stop and sniff the world around him. He seemed a little unsure when dogs passed us, but he also could have just been shaking from the cold weather.

After our walk, we spent some time together back at his crate, where Jerry started to come out of his shell. With a little help from some treats, he let me pet him all over and gave some cute little snorts!

Jerry might need a bit of time to fully warm up to new people, but he seems to have a sweet and gentle nature. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who just needs a little love and patience to shine, Jerry might be the perfect dog for you!
