More: My husband wanted to give me a special gift for Mothers Day in 2021, a dog. He told me before as he felt I should help with finding one. I immediately searched online and found Gunner. He was in a shelter, diagnosed with Heartworm, and was significantly underweight. I applied and was accepted to be his new mom. He is now 3 years old, Heartworm free, and is maintaining the perfect weight. I love him so much!
