Gunner is basically a shy gym bro trapped in a dog’s body. When you first meet him, he acts like he’s been forced into an awkward middle school dance, avoiding eye contact, hanging back, pretending he totally didn’t notice you. But give him a little time and suddenly he’s your personal hype man, emotional support buddy, and full-time shadow. Once Gunner decides you’re his person, congratulations: you now have a very loyal best friend who will happily follow you from room to room like a slightly clingy security guard. He’s energetic, goofy, and loves being part of the action… as long as the action doesn’t involve another male dog stealing his spotlight. Gunner prefers to be the king of his castle and honestly? He fully believes he deserves that title. Underneath the cautious start is a sweet, sensitive guy who just wants consistency, patience, and someone to tell him he’s handsome at least 14 times a day.
