Gunner

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

Gunner is a very handsome, 7 year old, chocolate Spaniel who is looking for an active, experienced and adult-only home with someone who has the time and patience to put in his training. Meantime, he is being cared for by Last Chance Animal Rescue in Edenbridge, Kent. Gunner is a typical Spaniel who loves to play ball and will play for hours. He will always find a ball when on walks. When playing fetch, he is great and returns the ball to your feet. Even though Gunner is a happy chap and is always wagging his tail, he is not keen on being over-fussed and likes his own space. Gunner loves the sound of his own voice and will be vocal for attention, food and even for walks. Sadly, he is not good with other animals, especially cats, so would be looking for a pet-free home. Gunner is a hyper energetic boy who is always on the move; he has bundles of energy and would love an active home. However, in the home Gunner does not have manners and will jump and sleep on the sofa and bed if he wants to. The best way to overcome this is to bribe him with a treat to get him off. Gunner can be stubborn and determined to do what he wants when he is in a certain mood and this is something that would need to be worked on. When Gunner is on a wind down in the evenings, he will happily sit next to you. Gunner is not a fan of the groomers or being groomed. He had a traumatic experience with this in the past so now he is very fearful and suspicious when something is happening to his fur. Everything must be done in stages to work up building the trust to allow him to have a full groom. In summer it's usually best to shave him down so it's all done and stress-free for him, then his fur can grow back nice and fluffy ready for winter. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ If you think you have the ideal home for gorgeous Gunner, please contact Last Chance Animal Rescue as follows: Or pop in to meet them – Wed to Sun, 11am-3pm (closed Mon/Tues) Please mention that you saw Gunner on the Oldies Club website.

About Gunner

What life with Gunner looks like

Gunner is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at The Oldies Club in United Kingdom.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇬🇧Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting Gunner, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Gunner?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. The Oldies Club handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Gunner on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Gunner if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — The Oldies Club will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Gunner already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Gunner isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with The Oldies Club early rather than rehoming privately; they know Gunner and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
