Story
The name Thunder Creek seems a touch dramatic for a fluffy little sweetheart who’s gentle with chickens, but we love a plot twist.
This boy is friendly, sweet-natured, curious, and calm. He's got a soft, fluffy coat, the most expressive flopped ears you've ever seen, and eyebrows that do more communicating than most people manage with words. His foster family has been trying to play it cool about just how great he is, mostly because they'd like to keep him around a little longer. We respect this, but…we’re telling you anyway.
Thunder Creek is gentle with kids (a 5-year-old and a 10-year-old can confirm), completely unbothered by cats, small animals, and backyard chickens, and has shown zero interest in the neighborhood bunnies and squirrels. He did great with his bath and nail trim, plays well with other dogs, and is nailing potty training. Sounds too good to be true, we know.
However, like the trail itself, both Thunder Creeks are very much incredible, and very much real.

A Quick but Important Note to All Adopters:
Please remember that none of our dogs arrive fully trained. Most come from tough or uncertain beginnings and may have never lived in a home or known basic routines. That means:
✧ They are not potty trained on arrival. Most dogs regress in potty training when moving to a new environment.
✧ They may lack basic manners (like leash walking or appropriate chewing).
✧ They’re learning, growing, and doing their best—but they will need patience, structure, and compassion to succeed.
The majority of these pups have lived in the confinement of a cage or kennel run for most - if not all - of their lives. Because of this, we strongly discourage the use of crates for anything other than vehicle transport. They deserve the chance to decompress and learn what true freedom and comfort feel like.
Our amazing foster homes work hard to start these dogs on the right path, but they are rescues, not finished products. These dogs need time, consistency, and a loving home willing to meet them where they are.
Also, breed designations are our best guesses based on appearance and behavior. We can't guarantee breed, size, adult weight, or coat type.
