GUNNAR is the Loyal Pup Who’s Ready to Be Your Family’s Newest Hero
Our pet of the week is equal parts cuddle buddy and home security system. He’s a 2-year-old German Shepherd named GUNNAR, and he’s available for adoption right now at It Takes a Village.
Kid-Friendly and Dog-Approved
Weighing about 70 pounds, GUNNAR is strong, smart, and super sweet. He’s got that classic German Shepherd charm - he’s loyal, protective, and always down for an adventure (or a nap on the couch if that’s more your speed). He’s fantastic with kids and knows how to play nice with other dogs, making him an A+ addition to just about any household.
Built-In Security System with a Fluffy Tail
Whether you're hiking a trail or watching a movie marathon, GUNNAR will be right by your side. So, if you’re ready to meet your new best friend and personal bodyguard, go ahead and fill out an online adoption application, and then schedule a meet and greet with GUNNAR!
Thanks to our Pet of The Week Sponsor: Tri-State Equine & Pet Supply

Tri-State Equine & Pet Supply is located at 3300 Interstate Drive, right off Burkhardt near Lynch.
All the animals at It Takes a Village are examined by a veterinarian, given age-appropriate vaccinations, dewormed, microchipped, spayed or neutered, heartworm tested, and treated if necessary.

If our pet of the week isn’t the right fit for your home, please visit It Takes a Village to see the other rescues that need to get fostered and adopted. And don't forget about their RENT-A-DOG Program. A quick fill form and a copy of your photo ID will allow you to spend time with one of ITV's vetted shelter dogs. These day-dates are great for the rescues - it gets them some exercise and new information to help us get them adopted. It’s been a big hit- so don’t miss out!
