Thunder is just a really nice dog to live with. And if you already have a dog? Even better. He LOVES his canine friends.<br/><br/>So... WHY ISN’T HE ADOPTED?!<br/><br/>Thunder's past was not always easy. He was surrendered after his owner developed dementia and suddenly found himself terrified and confused in a shelter.
