At 89 pounds, he sports a lovely, thick coat with a barely perceptible golden cast. He is likely a Great Pyrenees/Golden Retriever mix, sharing the appearance and characteristics of both breeds equally.
Affectionately called “Jer-Bear” in his foster home, Jerry was found as a stray. He was skinny, caked in mud, and had a fresh through-and-through bullet hole in his leg. Rescuers quickly got him to a veterinarian where he was treated and bathed, then to a foster home for recovery. His wound has healed nicely.
Genetically, Jerry’s hocks (knees on his back legs) are over-extended, and that makes him post-legged (the joints are too straight). Any surgery would likely make his legs worse. The best things for him are to be on Cosequin and fish oil, and to maintain his 89-pound weight.
On the bright side, he has the cutest little booty sashay when he walks.
Jer-Bear loves people. He enjoys their attention, but doesn’t demand it. He is really a good boy, and is easy to have around.
He enjoys being brushed.
Jer-Bear gets along easily with male and female dogs. He plays gently with them. He is having a blast playing with his big furry foster companions, both indoors and outdoors. We believe he would be happiest with a playful doggy companion in his forever home.
He loves stuffy toys and pillows, and he treats them with care. He doesn’t destroy them, and carries them around with a soft mouth. He’ll adorably take his treasures outside or gather them in his collection spot.
Jerry is totally housebroken and has no need for a crate. He does fine on leash. He doesn’t bark a whole lot.
When getting in a car, he needs a little booty boost to get in. He rides very well, laying down the entire time.
