GOOD NEWS ❤️ Gunner Stockton, quarterback for the Georgia Bulldogs, is bringing “HomeField for Paws” to life — a more than 5-acre sanctuary valued at $4.8 million, currently under construction in rural Georgia, dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and protecting dogs that have been abused or abandoned.
“This isn’t just a shelter,” Stockton said, resting his hand on the fence as several dogs gathered around him. “We’ve built recovery training areas, water-therapy pools, and round-the-clock veterinary care — but most importantly, a place filled with love. Dogs understand loyalty and family. Those are the same values football has taught me.”

Beyond building the sanctuary, Stockton has quietly donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to animal-rescue organizations across Georgia, covered medical expenses for injured dogs, and funded scholarships to help train future veterinary and animal-care professionals.
His long-term vision is to make HomeField for Paws a national model for animal-welfare programs, while inspiring fellow student-athletes to step up, use their platforms, and create meaningful change in their communities — not just on the field, but far beyond it. ❤️🐾
