Thor von Topen is a gorgeous 2 year old German Shepherd. This sweet boy is still learning his way around the rescue life, and a few minutes spent getting to know him are worth the incredible reward of his trust and affection.  Like every good man, the first path to his heart is his stomach.  Thor will happily sit on command and accept treats, and he’ll come out of his shell once he sees that golden reward in your hand.  While he may be shy at first, you’ll quickly be rewarded with a wagging tail and the biggest smile we’ve ever seen on a dog.  When walking, he’ll settle in after a few minutes and follow your lead – he’s calm and knows to stay by your side along the way. He seems to be housebroken. He is an absolute pro in his playgroup – he loves playing with the other dogs in the yard, and he’s the perfect combination of social and respectful.  He makes new friends like he’s the mayor of Dog Town – all pups are welcome, as far as he’s concerned!   Thor would love to be the mayor of his own family – if you have room in your home and heart for this sweet boy, he would be happy to make your acquaintance.

Rescued from the Desert Hot Springs animal shelter.
