Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Gander is a gorgeous, playful and sweet, nine-week-old, 10-pound, male Cattle Dog puppy looking for a loving guardian.
Gander is fabulous with other dogs and is currently living with his siblings and other dogs in his foster home. He has a lot to learn but we’re starting with crate-training and housebreaking.
Gander was relinquished to a shelter in Southern Illinois by a family that had more dogs than they had time for. He adores people of all ages and enjoys the company of children.
He was transferred to Chicago’s Friends of Petraits Rescue to find the home of his dreams.
He’s looking for someone to take him into their home and heart. He is smart and loving and would do great in a training class to help bond with his new family.
Gander is extremely healthy, dewormed, and vaccinated for distemper. He’ll be neutered in the next few weeks.
His adoption fee of $500 benefits the Friends of Petraits Rescue. To meet and possibly adopt Gander, please fill out an adoption application at https://friendsofpetraits.com/dog-adoption-application/ and follow up to meet him by e-mailing friendsofpetraits@gmail.com
He’s currently being fostered in Chicago’s Andersonville neighborhood.
