My story

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

Thor is a gentle giant with a heart as big as his name suggests. Displaced by the July 4th floods, he’s proven to be incredibly resilient and ready to start his next chapter in a loving home.

Laid-back and mellow, Thor’s favorite pastime is napping—he’s a champion sleeper and happy to snooze the day away while you’re at work. He’s perfectly house-trained, has never had an accident, and can comfortably wait until you get home to take care of business. When you walk through the door, you’ll be greeted by a tail wag and a dog who’s just as happy to chill as he is to snuggle.

Thor loves kids and welcomes everyone he meets. He’s a low-key companion who enjoys simple pleasures: a cozy bed, a gentle cuddle when he feels lonely, and the occasional car ride to sniff out new smells.

With his soulful eyes and steady presence, he’s ready to trade shelter life for a forever home filled with love, naps, and plenty of snuggles.
