About the dog:
Even though T.H.U.N.D.E.R. is a trained professional, he remains a regular dog at heart. He still needs to chase his tail, scratch an elusive itch behind his ear, and occasionally sniff someone’s behind… even in the heat of battle. Dangerous, and yet undeniably adorable, he’s the perfect mix of agent and man’s best friend.
Apart from fluent acrobatics and lightning-fast movements, T.H.U.N.D.E.R. has a vast combat experience, making him a formidable foe to his enemies.
