My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Thor ⚡🐾
A study in contradictions and honestly… a whole vibe.

Thor is sweet as sugar 🍯, affectionate, and loyal to the core. He loves other dogs… on his terms. He’s the kind of guy who wants to say hello, but appreciates good manners and personal space. Respect the vibe and you’re golden. ✨

This handsome cuddle bug is house trained, fully vetted, and absolutely smitten with people, car rides 🚗, and pup cups ☕. Around Castoff Pet Rescue, Thor is known as the “office dog” because of his calm presence, polite manners, and love of just hanging out with his people. He’s also our go-to dog tester because when it comes to friendly, well mannered dogs, Thor really shines 🐕🤝.

But let’s keep it real. Thor is not just sunshine and kisses 💋. He’s got layers. Like an onion. Or a parfait. And those layers need an experienced human to understand and manage them.

Here’s what Thor needs support with ⬇️
🍖 Food guarding – meals must be handled thoughtfully and in a controlled environment
🏠 Kennel reactivity – he can be reactive toward some dogs and people when kenneled
💙 Strong attachments – when Thor bonds, he bonds hard. Slow, intentional introductions matter

🛑 Thor needs an experienced dog owner who understands canine body language, resource guarding, and reactivity. He’s not a first time dog, but for the right person, he’s an incredibly rewarding companion.

With slow introductions, Thor could potentially live with another calm, well matched dog. He has done beautifully with the right furry and human friends.

Thor is ready for a fresh start with someone who sees past his rough edges and straight into his golden heart 💛. If you’re patient, experienced, and ready to offer structure, leadership, and love, Thor just might be your soulmate in dog form.

More about this rescue

The mission of Castoff Pet Rescue is to save and nurture homeless dogs; to match companion animals with loving, life-long homes; to foster responsible pet care; to control overpopulation in our community through spay/neuter programs; and to assist other shelters and rescue groups in any endeavor to benefit the animals. We believe that the same kindness, compassion, and generosity we extend to our two-legged neighbors should be given to our four-legged friends because they are not able to speak for themselves.
