Consistent training and structure will help him continue to grow into an amazing adult dog.<br/><br/>Because he is still a puppy, he occasionally shows some crate anxiety and separation anxiety tendencies. His foster family is working hard to create positive experiences and help him learn that being alone is safe.<br/><br/>Gunner's Ideal Home<br/><br/>Gunner would thrive in:<br/><br/>An active family<br/>A home that enjoys outdoor adventures<br/>A family committed to ongoing training<br/>A home with another playful dog<br/>A family that can provide plenty of exercise and enrichment<br/><br/>He loves children but can get excited during play and may accidentally knock over smaller kids. Families with young children should be prepared for normal puppy exuberance.<br/><br/>Gunner currently plays a little too rough with cats and would likely do best in a home with dog-savvy cats or no cats at all.<br/><br/>Why You'll Love Gunner<br/><br/>Gunner is the kind of dog who makes every day more fun. He greets life with excitement, loves with his whole heart, and never misses an opportunity to make people smile.<br/><br/>Whether he's racing around the yard, cuddling on the couch after a busy day, or enthusiastically introducing himself to everyone he meets, Gunner brings joy wherever he goes.<br/><br/>He's energetic, loving, playful, and full of potential. All he needs now is a family willing to guide him through puppyhood and give him the love he's been waiting for.<br/><br/>If you're ready for adventures, laughter, and a best friend who will adore you endlessly, Gunner is ready to meet you.<br/><br/> Located in: Iola, WI.
