This week volunteers at Adopt A Dog have selected Thumper as the program’s adoptable pet of the week. Thumper is about 5 years old and 80 pounds of pure love and kindness. Despite living in other shelters for more than a year and then getting adopted to a home with another dog who did not like Thumper and constantly beat him up, Thumper still found something to thump that pittie tail about! That thing’s always a-waggin’!
And then he got adopted to a home where he was just plain bored, and when left outside by himself, he found a way to have fun ... by getting under his fence and visiting neighbors. After one too many times, the owners decided he needed someone who could give him more than they were able. So, Thumper is back.
He’s not so happy about that and his thump-thump-thumping tail is a little quieter these days. But he’s such a wonderful dog and deserves a great family where he can get some good exercise in, and drop some weight, and find a lap to cuddle in. Thumper would make a great running partner or hiking buddy. He’s great on a leash, knows lots of commands, adores kids, is fine with other respectful dogs, loves the water, and thinks car rides are da-bomb! He’ll wait patiently at an open door, ready to go when given permission, and he takes treats like a real gentle boy. If you’re looking for a happy, tender, sweet, loving dog, then Thumper is your boy!
He’s housetrained, current on shots, microchipped and neutered. The adoption fee for thumpity-thump-thump Thumper is $150. The fee to adopt is charged to recoup standard veterinary expenses. Since many of our dogs are in foster, please call ahead to meet Thumper in Odell at the Hukari Animal Shelter, 3910 Heron Drive, or call for more information at 541-354-1083.
