THUNDER, who is still looking so hard for his forever human(s) to love, may be a Meerkat at heart!
This big sweetie, who will flop over on his back on top of you in a backwards hug if you lie down on the floor with him, has somehow learned to sit up on his haunches with his front legs suspended in the air like a meerkat!
“Thunder has been a treasure. He’s just so sweet and well behaved. You can often find him in his signature meerkat stance. Not sure if he picked that up after his injury or if he’s done it all along!
“He does great with my other two dogs. My one Chihuahua mix will play with him, but my purebred Chihuahua, Lilly (an Arrow Fund rescue), can be a huge diva so he pretty much leaves her alone and ignores her attitude.
“He’s very much a people dog and loves to cuddle, but the poor guy hasn’t gotten to cuddle all that much because of my new work schedule. He rides in a car like a dream, listens well, and is crate trained, spending the night in there without a peep. Today was his first time crated during the day, and seems to have done fine. I turned the camera on a couple times, and he was just sleeping. I think he’ll be easy to train. He’ll definitely make someone an incredible pet," wrote Ron, his wonderful foster.
Thunder was rescued by The Arrow Fund (TAF) in April when his front legs were broken on impact after he was thrown off a bridge in an act of extreme cruelty.
If that cold-hearted person's intent was to kill him, they failed. This big pup had guardian angels who saved him at the bottom of that ravine, got him to rescuers, and transported him to TAF for emergency medical intervention.
His body continues to heal well, and he is walking better and better with each passing day. He’s now able to go up and down his foster’s outside steps independently.
This boy’s spirit and heart could not be broken on that awful day. Thunder had more love to give and more life to live.
Do you need this big-hearted, goofy love bug in your life? He needs you.
