Thor's Story

Meet Thor—an 80-pound, 7-year-old black and tan German Shepherd with a strong presence and an even stronger sense of who he is.<br/><br/>Thor is the kind of dog who enjoys companionship on his own terms. He’s a bit independent, but he truly shines when he’s out on walks, taking in the world at his own pace. If you’re someone who enjoys a steady walking partner without the constant need for attention, Thor might be your perfect match.<br/><br/>He already knows “sit” and “focus on me,” and he’s been working on his harness manners, making progress each day. Thor also keeps his kennel clean, which is a great sign that he may transition well into a home routine.<br/><br/>Thor would do best as the only pet in the home—he likes having his space and being your one-and-only. He could do well with older kids who understand how to respect his boundaries and independence.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a loyal, low-key but silly companion who values both his independence and his daily adventures, Thor is ready to walk right into your life<br/><br/>Since many of our adoptable dogs are in foster homes, appointments are highly recommended to ensure the animal you are interested in is currently at the shelter. Please call or e-mail the shelter to set up an appointment to meet and adopt!<br/><br/>Our adoption fees include the following: all of our dogs/puppies are current on vaccinations (DHPP and Rabies if over 3 months of age) at the point of adoption, dewormed, heartworm tested and current on preventative, microchipped, treated for fleas/ticks and are spayed or neutered. Our large dog adoption fee is generally $175 + tax. Our small dog and puppy adoption fee is generally $300+ tax. Adoption fees may vary in special circumstances. Due to space limitations, we do not hold dogs.<br/><br/>Because we are on a busy street, we require that all dogs leaving the shelter be in a carrier or on leash. All pets remain up for adoption until an approved application is processed and their adoption fee paid.
