Gunner is a two year old, eye-catching catahoula mix who was surrendered because his family circumstances changed. There, he was an indoor only dog who lived happily with kids, cats and even a ferret. He is a little surprised to be in the shelter but he enjoys play group and walks well on a leash. Gunner would be very happy for a lot of physical activity and comfy quarters for rest. If you have any questions about Gunner, or another of the great animals in the Alpine shelter, please email heatherthemule@gmail.com See his picture at https://www.petfinder.com/petdetail/3758027
