Jerry (PA) handsome - Hound and Black And Tan Coonhound Dog for Adoption in Seymour, Connecticut

Jerry is being fostered in PA. Jerry is blind.

Howdy! Im Jerry, a 4-month-old super smart hound dog. I may be just a little feller, but I am growing and learning pretty darn quick. Im still workin on doing that potty thing outside, but sometimes forget. I know Ill get it, just like I learned how to use a doggie door. I told yall, I am smart as a tack!

I came to BDRA with my brother, but we dont need to be adopted together. I dont need no high falutin family or a fancy ranch, but I would love a family to play with me in a fenced yard, take me for walks, and teach me to be a good boy and mind my manners. Aw shucks, I wouldnt even mind having another dog to play with.

I am blind but that doesnt stop me at all. I love meeting new folks and new dogs. I dont get rattled and just want to play and give kisses. I reckon all I really want is my own family to love and for them to love and care for me too.
BDRA has voted against the use of electrical fencing effective immediately.
