GATSBY - Boxer Dog for Adoption in Athens, Alabama

Gatsby is a sweet big 2-4 yo guy that loves his pup friends and our kids. He is looking for his forever indoor home with ample room to play in a fenced in yard. He loves treats, chasing our boxer Minnie, and cuddling on the couch.

HE IS THE BEST PUP EVER! TRUST ME!

Unfortunately, his previous family had him chained up until they found us to take him. Living outdoors resulted in him getting heartworms. He is going through a slow-kill treatment right now.

He was surrender to us for liking the neighbor's chickens a little too much.

For safety, he would be best in a home without chickens, ducks, cats, or small pups.

He is 100% house and crate trained!
