GUNNER® Marks 10 Years with Limited-Edition Legacy Series Honoring the Kennel That Started It All

October 29, 2025

Honoring the dog who inspired it all – and the kennel that changed the category

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (October 29, 2025) /OUTSIDE SPORTSWIRE/ – GUNNER®, trusted for building crash-tested kennels proven to save dogs in real wrecks, launches the Legacy Series – a limited-edition collection celebrating 10 years of overbuilt, Made-in-USA gear.

Inspired by time spent in the field with family, friends, and dogs, the Legacy Series pays tribute to the original G1™ Kennel – the first product built for Addison Edmonds’ once-in-a-lifetime dog, Gunner – and the product that redefined safety standards for canine travel.

Since that first production run, the G1™ Kennel has become widely regarded as the safest dog crate on the market. It’s the only crate backed by real-world saves and 5-Star Crash Test certification from the Center for Pet Safety for its Intermediate, Medium, and Small sizes. Today, it’s trusted by trainers, veterinarians, K9 handlers, and thousands of dog owners who expect more than plastic.

“Ten years ago, it was just me and Gunner, heading home from a hunt,” said Addison Edmonds, Founder of GUNNER. “He was riding in a crate from the very first production run we ever made. That moment still sticks with me. And today, even with a growing team and a full product lineup, nothing’s really changed. We’re still building gear that lasts – gear that’s worthy of the dogs who trust us.”

The Legacy Series includes:

• Legacy Series™ Kennels – A special edition of the G1™ Kennel, built in tribute to the dog who started it all — and the 100,000+ dogs protected since. This 10-year anniversary release features two new colorways: Legacy Green and Legacy Tan. Each one is overbuilt to the same standard as the original.
• GUNNER Hunting Log – A heritage-style field journal built to capture the memories that matter most — the hunts, the dogs, the people, and the stories worth passing on. Templated pages created by Addison Edmonds to help you log the important details. Hand-sewn from American cowhide leather. Personalize it with your initials.
• Ten Seasons Deep Hat – A heritage-inspired lifestyle hat inspired by the dog who started it all.

“We don’t have a lot of time with our dogs – God puts them on this earth for a short amount of time,” said Edmonds. “So if you can spend less time frustrated with your products and more time enjoying your experience with your dog – that’s what we’re here for.”

Looking ahead, GUNNER remains committed to problem-solving design – building gear for hunting dogs, working dogs, and everyday companions alike. The Legacy Series is available now, exclusively at GUNNER.com.
