Grunkle Stan is the “Pet of the Week”

Adult animals adoption fees are “name your price” through May on approved applications

JACKSBORO, TN (WLAF)- Meet Grunkle Stan, a 70 pound certified goofball with a heart just as big as his blocky head.

This five year old Pit Bull Terrier mix is the perfect mix of cuddle bug and backyard comedian. One minute he’s trying to climb directly into your lap like he weighs seven pounds, and the next, he’s bunny hopping through the grass with the biggest smile on his face.

Grunkle Stan is medium energy, happiest hanging out with his people, soaking up attention, and enjoying life’s simple pleasures. He does well with other dogs who are friendly and respectful, and he’d love a home where he can be someone’s loyal sidekick.

If you’re looking for a dog with personality for days, endless affection, and the ability to make you laugh just by existing… Grunkle Stan may be your guy.
