Notes from Stone County Humane Society Inc.

Thunder was an owner surrender due to family issues. He is very playful and has the most animated facial expressions. Initially, he was a family pet but most recently he was in a pen by himself with very little attention. He seems to be more fearful with men, but is warming up to our attention and treats. I sat in the yard with him and it took about 5 minutes of him taking treats before he would let me pet him. Once the trust was developed, he just melted into me, leaning all of his weight on me wanting pets. He know gives us hugs and has become protective over us. He would be good dog for a single woman looking for a protector. He might take a little time to get used to you, but will be a loyal companion once y'all get comfortable with each other. We are learning that Thunder is super affectionate, playful and goofy. He tends to chase cats but is good with kids and other dogs.
