DUN DUN DUN DUNNNNN..... meet Gunner! This handsome fella is full of rottie love and snuggles and was so obviously well taken care of before he came into our care. Gunner is a bit of a quirky fella; most rotties sadly get their tail docked, but this guy has a full tail! It seems like in return, though, the universe took his eyes :(
That's right! He is fully blind in both eyes. But that doesn't stop him from being curious and have so much passion for "seeing" what the world has to offer! Gunner is still learning how to navigate the world fully. He has some issues with walls, but we're working on it. He also hasn't quite figured out stairs yet, which to be fair, who can blame him? Gunner is incredibly social and friendly and absolutely adores every single person he meets. Seriously, this dog does not have a malicious bone in his entire body. He loves to snuggle and get scratches all over. He especially loves cheek scratches! He reacts very well to your voice and is pretty darn good at using that nose of his! If you are looking for a special needs dog with an even more special heart... come give this guy a second change of life today!

When you find the right pet for you and your family, the adoption counselor will assist you in completing the proper paperwork. This process includes signing an adoption contract, reviewing medical history and providing proper pet care information.
What you will need in order to adopt:
A valid photo ID with your current address.
We recommend all members of the household meeting the animal before adopting.
If you are interested in adopting a dog and have other dog(s) living in your household, it is recommended that all dogs meet each other at the shelter.
Certain animals require additional steps or requirements.
Adoption fee is accepted in cash or credit/debit card. Checks, American Express, Discover, Care Credit are not accepted as payment.
PLEASE NOTE: We are not able to place a hold or accept a deposit for animals that are not available for adoption, that you have not done a formal meet and greet with, or over the phone.
