Story
Meet JETHRO! Jethro is a gorgeous, extremely friendly, happy, and sweet, gentle giant at 4.5 years old and 78 pounds. He is a mix of small Great Dane/Cane Corso/Lab with a handsome black and mahogany brindle coat, and white tipped toes and muzzle! His extremely expressive eyes add to his handsome looks. He is very sweet and lovable, understands house training and is crate trained. He has great house manners. Jethro would be fine in an apartment, townhouse, or house!
Jethro LOVES to meet people, leaning in for head pets, butt scratches, and even belly rubs. He already has had some obedience training, including sit with paw for a treat, wait, etc. Jethro likes to go for walks but also settles down nicely to hang out. Jethro is interested in but largely ignores other dogs and was used as a dog tester at the shelter.
Poor Jethro was surrendered by his ill owner to a shelter; his records indicate he was regularly vetted, neutered, microchipped, and overall well cared for. When the North Carolina shelter was beyond capacity and in spite of being a shelter favorite his fate did not look good, the shelter found him a safe place to stay and take care of him. We were asked if we could bring this extremely sweet dog into PetConnect. Jethro is very happy to now be in the DC area to find a forever family that will give him the attention that he deserves.
Jethro would love to curl up with you to hang out on a spring night! He would be an excellent new member of the family and is eager to find a family to love!
