Say hello to Thor, our sweet, gentle giant who has captured the hearts of everyone at the shelter — and even stole the spotlight on ABC News! At 7 years old, this senior superstar is 162 pounds of pure cuddle and kindness.
Thor may look mighty, but he's truly a softie at heart. He lives for the simple joys in life: long naps, head-to-toe snuggles, and the quiet comfort of being near someone who loves him. He’s incredibly affectionate with people and thrives on human companionship — the kind of dog who leans in for love and never wants to leave your side.
While Thor prefers to be the only dog in the home (he wants all the attention, and honestly, he deserves it!), he’s okay with cats and wouldn’t mind sharing his space with a feline friend.
Thor is longing to spend his golden years in a calm, loving home where he can trade in his shelter kennel for a cozy couch, and where he can soak up all the love and affection he so freely gives.
If you're looking for a loyal, loving companion who just wants to be your big cuddle buddy, Thor is your guy. Come meet this amazing boy today and give him the forever home he’s been dreaming of.
