Gunther is a three year old American terrier pitbull that weighs 68 pounds and was brought into the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 9/13 by a concerned citizen. He wasn’t able to tell me what caused the scarring and scabbing on his face and tail. He is very loving and wants a new family that will protect and cherish him. It`s clear he would be a devoted companion. He’s highly motivated by treats and sits for them. He needs practice with taking the treats gently. He loves squeaky toys and can entertain himself with them. He jumps up for attention but does not jump on you. He came from across the yard when I called him. He’s athletic, alert, highly engaged, lively, and playful. He did his business in the yard. He has a strong pull on the leash. He was non-reactive to other dogs. Instead he wanted my attention. He wants to be an inside dog. He wanted you to know he likes most sports on TV. He would gladly sit attentively by you and cheer on your team.
