Here's what the humans have to say about me:
**Jerry is in foster in Prosser, Washington**
Are you ready to welcome a burst of energy and affection into your life? Look no further than Jerry, a 10-month-old Cattle Dog who's eagerly searching for his forever family. Jerry was transferred to us from Weatherford, Texas with his brother Tommy (Tom).
Jerry’s ideal family is one that can provide him with consistent routines, positive reinforcement, and plenty of playtime. Jerry would thrive in a home with an active lifestyle, perhaps with a yard for him to burn off some of that puppy energy. He is looking for a family who understands his breed's intelligence and is committed to providing mental stimulation through engaging activities and positive training.
Jerry is dog-friendly, and would love a home with some fur-siblings to play with. Jerry has not been exposed to children yet; however, we believe he would do well in a home with older children that can respect his space. Jerry has also not been exposed to cats, but would likely do well with a confident and dog-savvy cat.
While Jerry is friendly and loving, he may need some time to adjust to new people and surroundings. Slow introductions are key to building his trust, and once he feels secure, Jerry is sure to become your loyal companion for life. He is very much a velcro dog once you are in his inner circle!
Jerry is making strides with his training. He’s gaining confidence on leash walks and doing well with his potty training. He is still very much a puppy, so his new home should be ready to continue with his training needs. Jerry is treat-motivated and loves fetch, toys, kongs, and puzzle toys. Jerry is also doing well with crate training! He can be initially antsy in the crate, and may whine for a few minutes but then settles down and is quiet. Overall he does awesome in his car crate and would make a great co-pilot.
Don't miss out on the chance to welcome Jerry into your home and create a lifetime of memories together!
Jerry is neutered and has received age-appropriate core vaccines. He is being fostered in Prosser, WA. If you're interested in meeting Jerry please fill out an adoption application on our website: pnwcdr.org/adopt
Please note: We do not do DNA testing on our foster dogs. The breed description is our best guess based on the dog's appearance, mother's appearance, paperwork, etc.
