****UPDATE -He's been adopted 🥰**** 🐾🐶 Meet Gunner! 🐶🐾 A charming 7-year-old boy, is on the lookout for a foster-to-adopt home! Despite arriving underweight, Gunner has blossomed with love and care. He adores playing ball 🎾, relishing delicious treats 🍖, and wagging his tail with boundless joy. However, his enthusiastic tail wags sometimes lead to minor injuries – he's just too excited to contain it! Currently in foster care, Gunner is a laid-back and easygoing pup who adores his squeaky toys – maybe a little too much, as he occasionally munches on the squeakers! 🙈 So, a tad of supervision during playtime is necessary. If you're ready to provide Gunner with the love and stability of a foster-to-adopt family, he could be the perfect addition to your home! Reach out today to learn more about this lovable furball. 🐾❤️ #FosterToAdopt #DogLovers #GiveAGunnerAHome
