Say Hello to Dutchess and Gunther, OBOL’s New Ambassador!

Thank you to dog dad Lou for sharing Dutchess and Gunther’s rescue story. We’re thrilled to have them as our newest OBOL Animal Ambassadors!

Dutchess is an 18-year-old Dachshund, while Gunther is an 11-year-old Mini-Schnauzer mix. They’re total opposites, but they love each other.


Dutchess and Gunther are both super sweet, chilled out, and usually pretty quiet—unless they get hyped up about something! Gunther used to be a service animal, so he’s a people person (or, well, a people dog). He loves making new friends. Dutchess, on the other hand, grew up in an apartment and is mostly blind. But don’t worry, she gets around just fine!


Dutchess can be a bit shy and nervous when meeting new people, but she’s slowly getting better at socializing. We’ve had Gunther with us for three years, and Dutchess joined our family a little over a year ago. They’ve brought so much happiness and warmth into our home, and we just can’t imagine life without them.

Would your fur-ever pal make a great Animal Ambassador like Dutchess & Gunther?
