Lightning is a 5-year-old neutered male black lab. Lightning weighs 59 pounds and is up to date on shots. Lightning is bonded with Thunder and the two must be adopted together.
Watch out for the adorable Lab storm that’s coming! Thunder and Lightning are bonded brothers who have been together their whole lives. Their rescuer said she could not say enough about these sweet gentlemen. They lived with many other dogs but we have no history of Thunder and Lightning having lived with kids, so they are approved for kids 10 and up. Good with cats.
From foster in OH: Thunder and Lightning are best brothers, together since birth; they are inseparable. Thunder has a longer snout and is a little rounder, Lightning is a little taller and has some white strikes on top of his head. They love to be around people, and they are friendly with other dogs, cats, and children, although they may exuberantly knock down a younger one. They need some work with the leash. They are housetrained. Thunder and Lightning are a pure joy to be with, they are good-natured and so sweet.
UPDATE: Thunder and Lightning are so happy to be out of the kennel. Thunder is currently recovering from left knee surgery and can only go on 5-minute walks several times a day. He cannot jump up on furniture, in and out of cars, or roughhouse. He needs to be crated when he is not supervised, or contained in a safe area where he won't get hurt. These boys are so loving! They met the resident female dog and everyone is getting along great.
