Happy Gotcha Day Gunner!

Meet Gunner

This handsome, 5 year old boy is looking for a second chance. His story is a sad one. You see, poor Gunner’s owner passed away a couple months ago, and since then, his life has been turned upside down. Now Gunner has been surrendered to LFS so that we can help find him a forever home where he can find love again. Gunner is understandably confused right now and seems to be searching for his person when he sees cars go by. In time he will adjust, but it breaks our heart to see him sad. We have been trying to give Gunner all the attention, cuddles, and games of fetch we can manage, and we can see Gunner starting to cheer up. He doesn’t quite understand that he has to bring back the ball when we play fetch, but he’ll learn in time. Gunner is a super sweet boy who enjoys pets and gives kisses, even when he’s getting a bath! We found out that Gunner likes water and will wade into the shallow part of a pool after a toy, but he really does NOT know how to swim yet. A life jacket may be in his future (hehe). He has a good amount of energy and loves to run around outside. Gunner knows some commands but could use a refresher course on basic obedience and walking on the leash. 
 
While Gunner is a large dog generally, he is currently very overweight at 120lbs. He should be closer to 90-100lbs. We have started him on a diet and hope to update you all with his progress as we start to get him to a healthier weight. 
 
Stay tuned as we get to know Gunner more and help him shed some extra pounds! 

Update: Mr Gunner is a huge jumper. But he had an amazingly fun day!! Daycare really seems to help clear his mind.  His foster parents should be picking him up soon.
