Gunner's story is one of love. Gunner had one love in his life - his owner, and his owner had one love in his life, Gunner. They were an amazing duo that was deeply bonded. Unfortunately, Gunner's owner had a stroke that forced him into a rehab facility where he couldn't have a dog. A foster family stepped in to house and care for Gunner until his owner could get back on his feet. Every week for several months, the foster family brought Gunner to visit his dad in the rehab facility. Gunner is a super sweet, laid back boy that quickly won over everyone at the facility and was the star of the show, visiting everyone, full of tail wags. He was sharing the love! Sadly, Gunner's owner recently passed away, leaving him without his beloved owner. Thankfully, he remains with the foster home that cared for him for months, and he will remain there until we find the adopters that can love him as much as his owner loved him.

In Gunner's foster home, there are small dogs, large dogs, cats, and grandkids of all ages. Gunner is fine with everyone. He is crate trained and housebroken. 

 He enjoys his daily walk and is very scent driven. He is a bagle: a beagle/basset mix. Did you see his gorgeous floppy basset ears? Because he is a hound, that means when he catches a smell, he goes after it, no matter what is happening, and who he is dragging with his leash! He is a 47 pound dog so he can pull on the leash if he catches the smell or sight of a rabbit or squirrel. Right now, we are searching for a home that a fenced in yard because he enjoys having the opportunity to sniff without a leash and, because of his breed mix, he is very much into smells so letting him out into a fenced yard is a great way to keep him safe and contained.

Gunner is such a wonderful dog who has done wonderful things in his life, sharing the love, and he absolutely deserves to spend the rest of his days being the center of attention with his adopter.

He is fixed, current on vaccinations, heartworm test and prevention, microchipped, and flea topical. He is a healthy 11 year old boy. If you are interested, please email tysonsplacerescue@gmail.com or fill out an application at tysonsplacerescue.org
