Name: Thunder
Date of Birth and/or Age: 7YO, neutered
Current Location: Greenwood, South Carolina
Brief Summary of the Situation:
Thunder is a 7 year old, neutered Shiloh Shepherd that is looking for a foster or a new home, ideally before December.
- Thunder loves his people, wants a lot of attention, and loves to be pet. He is on the lazy side and not very playful.
- He is very protective of his home and his people, so care must be taken to introduce him to new people and animals.
- He has lived with a small dog previously and a cat. He does not have any prey drive.
- His reaction to another large dog is unknown.
- He is great on walks and will walk right by your side.
- Due to his protective and territorial nature, introductions to new people and/or animals should be slow and would be best on neutral ground. He will react and fence fight with another dog if he sees one walking by his home.
- He has no reported bite history, but he will lunge.
- He does not like to be handled at the vet and at the groomer's. Because of this, his coat is currently shaved.
- He has no known health issues except perhaps a little arthritis or joint pain. Short walks are best.
- An ideal home would be filled with patience, some experience with this type of temperament, and perhaps the help of a trainer/behaviorist.
