Jerry

My story

Meet Jerry! Jerry may be the smaller of the two brothers, but don’t let his size fool you — he’s got a big personality! He’s playful, spunky, and holds his own in every wrestling match with his brother, Ben. Jerry is currently going through the teething stage, so he does nip and loves to chew — totally normal for a growing pup. With consistent training, this will fade as he matures. Ideal Home: Jerry needs an active, attentive household with someone home most of the time. He’d do great with another young dog (1–5 years) to play with but should not live with senior dogs due to his high energy. A fenced yard is preferred, as he’s tiny and quick. Apartments or condos could be a challenge since he barks loudly when excited or seeking attention. He’s fine with kids — both small and older — as long as play is supervised. Training: Puppy pad trained: In progress Crate trained: Yes Leash trained: Not yet Commands: Starting to learn “No,” “Come here,” and “No biting” House trained: Not yet Personality: Jerry is a fun-loving, high-energy pup who loves stuffed animal toys, chasing his brother, and exploring everything. He enjoys being petted but doesn’t sit still for long. His favorite pastime? Getting into whatever Ben is playing with, just to stir things up! He’s very inquisitive and needs supervision around the house, as he’ll chew whatever he can get his little paws on. Needs to Know: Jerry barks loudly when excited He’s very curious and needs to be monitored indoors Still teething, so nipping is expected A home that can offer lots of playtime, patience, and continued training would be ideal. Jerry is up to date on age appropriate vaccines. A neuter deposit is required for adoption. He is available for adoption in NJ and surrounding areas. https://peytonsplaceanimalrescue.org/adoption-application ##2455154##
