Thunder
Thunder is a exuberant male mal who is built like a tank! Although he could stand to lose a few pounds he is in great health.
His owner reports that aside from a single bout of dermatitis when he was much younger (she thinks it was from way too much
fertilizer on the lawn), and from what I could see he was in fantastic health and had very high energy for his age. He
is fairly easy to walk on a lead but could quickly put on the power if a squirrel runs out in front of him.
He has seen the vet regularly and is neutered and up to date on all vaccinations. His owner reports that he likes children
as long as they are not hanging off of him, so a family with no children or teenage children would probably be best for this
guy. He does not like other dogs, and cats are a no. The owner said that he will occasionally tolerate the presence of a small
submissive female lab owned by a friend but he never likes the situation and would prefer to remain an only dog. She says he
settles into routines very easily. He is an indoor/outdoor dog- a nice kennel and also a place in the house, so he is
housebroken. His owner is very concerned about making sure that he has a good home. As he is VERY well cared for, and
she is devastated that she has to find a home for him but feels that it's necessary due to recent circumstances.
Overall, Thunder is very nice and very handsome and he maybe a great dog for someone who wants an older dog with a lot of
life left to live. Had the owner not told us his age, we would have guessed he was maybe 6 years old...not 9!
