Experienced Home Needed for Loyal 3-Year-Old Rottweiler
QR Code Link to This Post
Gunner is a 3-year-old Rottweiler who is deeply loved, and this is not a decision I’ve made lightly. My goal is not to find the fastest home. My goal is to find the right home.
Gunner is incredibly loyal, intelligent, affectionate with his people, and full of personality. He bonds deeply with the people he trusts and has so much love to give in the right environment. He is extremely playful, loves engagement with his people, and thrives with structure and attention.
I also want to be fully transparent because he deserves the best chance at success.
Gunner has reactivity issues and is not good with other animals, so he must be the only pet in the home. He is also not a good fit for a home with children. Because of this, he would do best with an experienced dog owner who understands reactive dogs and can provide consistency, exercise, patience, and responsible handling.

A $50 rehoming fee will apply to help ensure serious inquiries, and that amount will be put toward Gunner’s neutering. I will personally cover the remaining cost.
This is an emotional decision, but I am committed to doing this responsibly. I will be selective about placement because his safety and long-term success matter deeply to me.
