    My new foster THOR


    This is his story so far.........Moving On
    Uhhhh oooooooooo, I think I am in love. This guy is a sweetheart. I know he is happy to be in a home because he has been in boarding since Jan 24 and I don't know how long in animal control. He was a stray, but he sure looks like he had been well taken care of. He acts perfectly in our home, like he's been here forever!! He knows commands and NO works beautifully.

    He is about 4-5 years old. He is a long stock coat blanket back GSD and of normal size (I have always been owned by the large-boned 100+ lb GSDs). He does weigh 80 lbs, but they suggest that he lose a few lbs so he may not get Hip Dysplasia. He is also quite dark in the face than I am used to. He is gorgeous.

    Hmmm, how determined are you to "foster," not adopt him? He sounds perfect! Give him a kiss for me, will you?

    I'm so glad that Thor found you to foster him. He is strikingly beautiful.
    So far, what is his personality like? Or is to soon to tell? Give him a hug
    from me.

    He really is a sweetheart. He is friendly, but not overly friendly. He is calm until he goes into play mode . I can't wait til the weather gets warmer (the wind chill is below zero here) so we can go for longer walks and have more backyard playtime.

    He's a beautiful GSD, I love his darker coloring. He sounds like a real sweatheart.

    He's gorgeous! He looks like he'd be a very good police dog! His ears are so beautiful! I love him! I hope he ends up not only a foster...

    Sounds like the weather here. We are having the coldest
    temperatures of the winter now. My fingers get numb even with gloves.
    Can't wait for some warmer temps.

    Sue, it sounds like Thor knows a good thing when he sees it making you fall in love with him already. I am so happy for him and you to find each other. I'm sure he was guided into your home by Killian and Shiloh.

    Do you think he has found his forever home or is it still too early to tell?
