My story

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

From Jethro's temporary foster family:

"Jethro is a big, beautiful, young male pit mix. He is neutered, current on his immunizations, and has been vet-checked. He is a little timid and apprehensive due to all the changes in his life but has settled in well.

Jethro is a large dog and a strong puller when excited. He gets supercharged by the smells and sounds of wildlife. I have used a leash wrap harness on him which helps a lot when he does start to pull.

Dog meets have not gone well with the resident dogs so I would say he is dog selective. This may be due to him still settling in but he doesn't appear to appreciate anyone who challenges his space. The shelter was told he participated in playgroups in the southern shelter so a dog friend is not out of the question!

Jethro keeps his kennel space very neat and clean and doesn't seem to have separation anxiety. He does silly little puppy jumps when greeting me and appears to understand his size and not jump with paws up unless I am seated. He loves butt rubs!! We are working on waiting to go through doors since he started trying to rush through. He is doing very well with this! Also with sitting to wait for a treat that he takes gently. He is great at this!!

Jethro would be a very loyal loving companion for someone willing to put in the love and time to work with him. If you are looking for a handsome macho man with a soft sensitive side and some silliness thrown in I think Jethro could be the one for you ❤."
