HARTFORD -- Gunnar is a pointer or Jack Russell Terrier mix.
He is a neutered male, and he is 4-5 yrs old.
He is a happy, friendly dog with a “Lab-like” personality. He loves loves to be loved, and if you stop petting him, he’ll nudge and snuggle you for more!
He gets along well with people, other dogs, and has shown himself to be gentle and safe with kids at recent events.
He was rescued from a local dog pound after he was found roaming and was never claimed. He must have been someone’s family pet, because he seems well socialized and respects the leash.
He’d be great for someone looking for a young, athletic dog, but perhaps needs something smaller. He has the appearance and presence of a bigger dog, but he’s only 32 lbs!
