Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog. Thor is a striking young German Shepherd mix with a heart as big as his name. He was found wandering alone on Hwy 14, and despite efforts to locate his owner, no one came forward to claim him. Now he's looking for a forever home that will give him the love and security he deserves. At around 1–2 years old, Thor is full of energy, curiosity, and intelligence. He’s at that perfect age where he's eager to learn and bond with his people. Whether it’s going on walks, learning new tricks, or just being your loyal companion, Thor is up for it. Thor is working on basic manners and will thrive with structure and positive reinforcement. Thor would love an active home that provides both mental and physical stimulation. Experience with shepherds or working breeds is a plus. Thor has so much potential—and he’s ready to be someone’s hero. Could that be you?

Overview:
The German Shepherd Dog, a truly iconic breed, originated in Germany in the late 19th century, primarily for herding sheep. They are easily recognizable by their athletic, medium-to-large build, typically weighing between 50-90 pounds, with a distinct double coat that can be black and tan, sable, or solid black. Known for their intelligence and loyalty, German Shepherds possess a remarkably trainable and courageous temperament, making them exceptional working dogs in fields like police and service work. While generally good with families when properly socialized, their high energy levels and need for mental stimulation make them unsuitable for apartment living without significant daily exercise. Prospective owners should be aware of common health concerns such as hip and elbow dysplasia, as well as degenerative myelopathy, underscoring the importance of responsible breeding and regular veterinary care.
