About Gunner

Lab
Age: Puppy
Sex: Male

Gunner is a purebred Chocolate Labrador Retriever. He will be 3 years old in March, 2018. He is purebred, and up-to-date on vaccinations. He is very social, with both adults and especially children. (We have 2 young children.) He is also very social with other dogs. Not aggressive whatsoever. He has never resided with cats. We own a home in an average neighborhood in Colorado Springs, CO. We have two young children (one baby), and another dog. Our home and backyard are fairly small, and Gunner needs room to run. I am looking for him to find a home that has a fenced-in yard, on a lot of land. He loves to be outside and to smell. He has never been hunting, but he would make a great hunting dog. He is very smart. Very energetic and needs exercise regularly. With 2 young children, it is very hard for me to give him this exercise. If he runs away from home (as he has before), I cannot chase after him through the neighborhood. He is a truly a sporting breed! He likes to play fetch, play in water, play with dog toys, and loves to chew on dog bones! He is also food-driven, and has a healthy diet. We have had training in the past, in hopes that he would not run out of the front door. However, I felt that the training wasn't suitable, as he still wants to run. He knows the basic commands, 'sit,' 'lay down.' He is a sweet, loving dog, and needs to go to the best home possible. He has been in our family since he was 8 weeks old and this is not an easy process for us. However, he will be happier if he is in a home with room to run. Thank you for your time. Kara
