He survived it just fine - it wasn't too major, and other than having a little difficulty settling down he didn't really seem to be affected by it.
When I was a little girl, my parents frequently dogsat for some friends who had an incredibly friendly, well socialised husky/wolf x. This dog was amazing in every respect, but it was TERRIFIED of thunderstorms. One night, during a storm, he hid underneath my parents' bed. My parents, taking advantage of the romantic atmosphere of the storm, decided to use the opportunity to uh....try to make me a little brother or sister, not knowing the dog was under the bed. In the middle of the act, there was a massive crash of thunder and the dog sat right up....throwing asunder the slats, mattress, and amorous adults above him.
I am haunted by that story, and thus want a dog who just sees thunderstorms as another day in the neighbourhood.
