Meet Gunnar

Hi! I am your future best friend and cuddle buddy! I’m Gunnar, a 6-year-old terrier mix with a good sprinkle of Chihuahua, Lab, and maybe a few other breeds, according to my DNA test. At around 35 pounds, I’m a healthy and athletic little guy, ready to bring a lot of joy and laughter into your life. I’m a friendly fellow who gets along great with other dogs. I might be a bit nippy at times—guess that herder dog instinct in me comes out—but don’t worry, I’m not aggressive and I definitely don’t bite. I’ve been working hard on this and I’m improving every day. I’m super intelligent and eager to please, so if you guide me, I’ll be a model companion. I’m a bit of a chatterbox and love to nibble on your ears—it tickles! My favorite way to show affection is with my funny face: I’ll curl up my lips in a playful growl while wagging my whole body and giving you the sweetest squinty-eyed smile. It’s pretty hard not to laugh around me! When it comes to cuddles, I’m a true velcro dog. I can’t get close enough to you, so be prepared for some serious snuggling. I share my foster home with Bruce (also looking for his forever home) and we have an absolute blast running and playing together. I get along with him and all the other dogs, even the older ones who might growl at me—I’m respectful and back off when needed. I may be a little shy at first, but I warm up quickly to new people. I promise, with a little time, you’ll see my affectionate and playful side shine through. I’m up-to-date on my vetting, crate trained, and housetrained. I know basic commands and am very well-behaved. I prefer to sleep on the bed with you, snuggled close, but I’m also fine with other dogs joining us. I’m great on the leash and in the car, so we can go on all sorts of adventures together. If you’re looking for a loving, playful, and incredibly cuddly companion, I might just be your perfect match. Let’s meet soon—I can’t wait to find my forever home with you! With love and wagging tails, Gunnar If you would like more information on Gunnar or would like to adopt him, please contact Judy at [email protected] or 865-300-8146. Adoption fee is $150.
