Hi, I’m Gunner — a big, lovable boy filled with endless affection and loyalty!
I’m the ultimate cuddle buddy and will happily climb into your lap or snuggle up next to you in bed. My foster mom says I could be trained to sleep on the floor or couch, but honestly… we both love the nighttime snuggles.
I’m very loyal and follow my people everywhere — I’m basically your built-in shadow. I walk beautifully on a leash and get super excited for walks! Other animals don’t bother me at all when I’m out and about. At home, I live with another big dog and we play like crazy, but I know how to settle down and nap when it's time. I really am the best of both worlds.
I do get a little humpy sometimes, but a quick "no" is all I need to stop — and don’t worry, I’ll be neutered before coming home with you!
I have some allergies, but they’ve improved a lot with medication and will be manageable long-term with proper care. I also drink a LOT of water (so my foster family keeps a towel under my bowl!) and I absolutely LOVE ice cubes — if you’re getting some from the fridge, I’ll be right there waiting for my share.
When my foster family leaves, I hang out with the other dogs and don’t need to be crated. I eat separately just to avoid food sharing, but I’m very well-mannered. I’m super gentle when taking treats and love a little extra like cheese or chicken in my food.
I enjoy playing fetch and am great at dropping the ball — then my foster brother steals it and we turn it into a game of chase! Loud noises outside make me a bit nervous, but I’ll stick close and feel better near my people. I even slept through a thunderstorm once!
I may bark when I see someone in the yard — just doing my job to let you know! I’m a little shy with new people, especially men, and may have a little "nervous pee" at first, but once I warm up (especially with my person nearby), I’m just fine.
I haven’t had many car rides lately, but I used to go camping a lot in my previous home and loved it — I think I’d really enjoy more adventures! My foster mom has fostered 15 dogs and says I’m her favorite — a kind, gentle giant who just wants to be your very best friend.
I promise to fill your life with love, laughter, and loyal companionship every single day.
