Meet Gunther, a 3-year-old tricolored dog up for adoption at the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria.
This beautiful boy is looking for a family to shower with love.
Gunther was a bit shy at first, but is growing in confidence, according to AWLA spokesperson Erin Shackelford.
“Gunther loves to go on walks with our staff and volunteers — he loves to sniff, smell and sight see,” said Shackelford. “Gunther also enjoys a good game of fetch — not only will he chase it, he will bring it back to you, too.”
Do you love food? Well, so does Gunther and he is very food motivated.
This sweet dog will make a fantastic companion for any family!
