Hi my name is Gunner!

Boy, do I have a crazy story to tell you....It all starts back in Texas.....I lived in a home in Texas with my owner, who was a young adult, and his mom. One day, my owner took me on a really long car ride to Minnesota. Boy is it cold up here! Sometime after we got here, my owner decided he wanted to go to a movie. This was on one of those super cold days recently. He wasn't too smart, because he left me loose in the back of his uncovered pick up truck! Yep, just left me sitting by myself in the freezing cold! I wasn't even on a leash...so if I weren't a smart dog, I could have ran out on to the highway and gotten hit by a car!

So, some nice people saw me, and called the police. I was really happy to get in to that nice warm police car. They took me to this place they call "the pound". My owner was contacted, but when he found out he'd have to pay to spring me from jail...he said he was going back to Texas and that I could stay there! Can you believe it? Well, the story gets even better.....

So the people at the pound sent a letter to my old address in Texas. My owners mom got the letter, and called the pound. She was very confused by the letter, because my owner told her that I'd been out hunting with him and had been attacked and killed by a wild animal! CRAZY! She was absolutely shocked to find out I was alive and well in Minnesota!

I had to stay at the pound for several days, then moved to a foster home. Unfortunately I didn't get along well with the resident dog, and had to go in to boarding! Thank goodness another nice foster home came along, and I'm settling in there now I'm good at throwing a ball for myself. I could entertain myself for hours with a simple toy!

I hope to meet you soon, and that you have a nice warm bed for me at your house.
Love,
Gunner
