THUNDERBOLT - KARELIAN BEAR DOG / MIXED (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Karelian Bear Dog / Mixed (medium coat). Thunderbolt is the total package—a loyal, loving boy who is happiest when he’s right in the middle of family life. With his big heart and devoted personality, it’s no surprise that he forms strong bonds with his people and takes his role as best friend very seriously. This handsome guy is long past the puppy stage and has the manners to prove it! Thunderbolt is potty trained, crate trained, and knows cues like sit, come, and down. He walks nicely on a leash and while he may occasionally pull at the start of an adventure, he settles down quickly once he gets those happy wiggles out. Thunderbolt loves affection and enjoys being included in all the everyday hustle and bustle. Whether it’s tagging along on car rides, joining you for walks, or curling up beside you on the couch, he’s just happy to be with his people. In fact, his previous family described him as a lovable couch potato who enjoys relaxing just as much as he enjoys getting out and about! He even likes baths and grooming—a rare bonus! While Thunderbolt can be a little cautious when meeting new people in a home environment, he simply appreciates proper introductions. Here at the shelter, he’s been nothing but friendly and social, so we suspect his protective instincts shine brightest with his family. Thunderbolt would do best in a home without small animals, as he may chase them if given the chance. He generally ignores other dogs and prefers to do his own thing, though he has lived successfully with canine companions before. He seems to get along best with dogs who match his energy level—and truthfully, he’d be perfectly happy soaking up all the love and attention as your one and only! That said, we’re always happy to arrange a dog meet-and-greet prior to adoption. If you’re looking for a loyal companion with great manners, a goofy smile, and endless love to give, Thunderbolt might just be your perfect match.
