Mixed Breed
🇺🇸
Fairfax, Virginia
April 14th
male, large, adult
DESCRIPTION
Do you have lots of scritches to give? Jerry (55lbs) is in search of a loving home with allll the attention, which he will reciprocate by offering kisses to your face! Jerry seems intrigued by toys with squeakers and may enjoy playing more in a home setting than he does here. Otherwise, Jerry is happy to show off his tricks – he knows "sit," "shake," and "down," and despite being older, he can surely learn more. Jerry plays well with other dogs and has lived with young children in the past, whom he was "great with." Do you have a Jerry-sized hole in your family? Come by and meet this guy!

ABOUT: MIXED BREED DOG BREED
The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
