SEX: Male
BIO: Hi, I’m Gunner! I’m crate trained, know basic commands like “sit” “heel” “off” and “down” (although I’ll need consistent reminders about my manners as I forget when I am excited), am in good health, and am up-to-date on all my necessary vaccinations. Also, my current family got a DNA breed test done and my ancestry is predominantly Manchester terrier, Akita and Maltese with a few other breeds sprinkled in there from my distant past.
My currently family loves me dearly but isn’t able to spend the time with me that I need since having new work schedules and adding a baby to the mix, so I’m looking for a home that’s a better fit. I prefer to be the only fur baby and will do best in a stable home with pet parents who are experienced with dogs and without children under the age of 12. When we first meet I’ll be a little apprehensive since I’m skeptical of strangers. Once I know you’re safe, I won’t be able to get enough of you and you can expect to get lots of kisses!
My hobbies, you ask? Well, I know how to relax, but my first love is being with my family. Once I know everything is safe and secure, I love to run freely (if you have a fenced-in yard, you get major bonus points!), chase after any kind of ball, chew on my chew toys or bone, take walks (with a confident pet parent), and just lounge with the family at the end of the day after I’ve run out of energy. Oh, I won’t want to do all that alone… I’m the kind of guy who prefers the company of my pet parents throughout the day.
I’m looking for my new best bud…could it be you?
XOXOXO-Gunner
Start The Adoption Process Today
Begin by filling out an adoption application and we start pairing you with your perfect pooch!
Chicagoland Dog Rescue Dogs
Our trained volunteers will determine which home among all applicants is the best fit for the dog, and the dog will be brought back to complete the adoption paperwork. Our adoption fee is $400-450 for puppies 7 months and up and dogs. The fee covers the cost of all medical care including all legally required inoculations, a fecal test and deworming (if required), spaying or neutering, and a microchip. Lifetime training is also included.
***** All breeds listed are a best guess or based on information from our rescue partners and are not guaranteed*****
All our dogs have all legally required preventative inoculations, are microchipped and are spayed or neutered to control the repetitive birth cycle that produces more unwanted dogs. Most have been rescued from kill shelters in the Midwest, so their exact breed and age is often unknown. All dogs have been medically or emotionally rehabilitated as needed and are temperament tested to assess their fit with other dogs, cats and children.

Chicagoland Dog Rescue reserves the right to restrict adoption of a dog to potential adopters who live within a fifty (50) mile radius of Schaumburg, IL
Weekly socialization and basic obedience training is offered to all adopters FREE OF CHARGE for the lifetime of the dog, something no other group offers! Training is crucial for happy dogs and ensures that our adopted dogs remain in their happy households forever. A minimum of 4 training sessions is required for all adopted dogs.
Details on our training program can be found here.
