🐕 Jerry needs another dog in his new home.
Jerry is a very sweet, gentle boy who is still learning that the world can be a safe and happy place. He is a little scared of his own shadow and can find too much noise, excitement or unfamiliarity overwhelming, so he is looking for a quiet, calm and patient home where he can take things at his own pace.
He can be nervous when meeting new people, but once he realises he is safe, his lovely personality starts to shine through. He responds really well to gentle encouragement, positive praise and reassurance. He is particularly helped by having a confident, friendly dog around him, and this is something we feel is essential for Jerry in his new home. His canine companion can help show him that there is nothing to be frightened of and give him the confidence to explore the world.
👧 Children: Possibly suitable for older, dog-savvy children who understand that Jerry needs calmness, space and time to settle. He would not be suited to a busy or noisy household.
🐶 Dogs: Jerry is happy living with other dogs and must be rehomed with another confident, friendly dog. He currently sleeps downstairs with the other dogs. He has never been left to sleep alone and we don’t think he would be comfortable doing so. He would happily sleep alongside another loving dog or with his humans.
🐱 Cats: Not cat tested.
🎾 Toys: Jerry hasn’t discovered the joy of toys just yet! He’s still concentrating on learning to feel safe and secure, but we’re hoping that as his confidence grows, he’ll discover that playing and having fun is rather wonderful too. ❤️
🐾 Walkies: Jerry gets excited when his harness and lead come out, but he has very little experience of actually going for walks. His new family will need to continue his lead-walking training gently and patiently, helping him build confidence as he learns about the big wide world.
🏡 Toilet training: Jerry is getting there! He is praised when he toilets outside and is using puppy pads overnight, although there are still occasional accidents. His new family will need to continue his toilet training with patience and positive reinforcement.
🍽️ Food: Jerry can be a little protective around his food and will growl if his foster brother comes too close while he is eating, so he is currently fed separately.
💙 Jerry’s perfect home
Jerry isn’t looking for a busy household or a family who expects him to be confident from day one. He needs time, patience, kindness and lots of reassurance.
We’re looking for a quieter home with a confident and friendly resident dog who can be Jerry’s best friend and help him learn that life is full of lovely things. His humans will need to be around to give him the companionship he craves, lots of cuddles and reassurance, and plenty of gentle encouragement as he learns to enjoy walks, adventures and all the things that other dogs take for granted.
A secure garden where Jerry can potter about with his new canine brother or sister would be wonderful.
Jerry has so much potential. Beneath that nervous exterior is a lovely, affectionate boy who just needs someone to show him that he is finally safe. ❤️
Could you be the patient, loving family who helps Jerry find his confidence?
