About Thunder

Meet Thunder! Before arriving at Arctic Rescue, this handsome 5-year-old Siberian Husky spent 2.5 months waiting at a local shelter. With his larger build and fluffy coat, he stands out, especially with his notable eyeliner accentuating his eyes. Thunder is playful, sweet, and embodies a joyful spirit. In his foster home, he has shown remarkable politeness and is fully crate trained, going in and out calmly with minimal whining. Sometimes he calls out when the other dogs head somewhere without him—it's simply because he wants to be part of the fun. His interactions with other dogs have improved, and he has even started playing with them. Thunder thrives on activity, whether it’s engaging in a spirited game of tug or joining his family on walks and adventures. This energetic boy is looking for an active family that will embrace his enthusiastic spirit. Note that he requires an experienced adopter due to the needs typical of northern breeds, so be sure to research before applying. Click apply to start the adoption process.
