Thor: male dog to adopt

Thor is a large crossbreed aged around six years old. Not yet cat tested. Can live with or without other dogs. Respectful children 12 plus. Thor was on a kill list when he was taken out of Public shelter in Mogosoaia, Romania in March 2022. He has rescued along with several other dogs on that list and taken to a safe private shelter. He has waited all of these years for a chance of a home and has finally obtained his ticket to the UK to find one. Thor, otherwise known as Thor-some, is a brilliant lummox of a dog who is loved by all who meet him. If you like chunky ones that offer a proper bear hug then you’ll love this boy. He is comical, loving and a real charmer. Thor gets on well with other dogs but could also live as the only dog in the home. He could live with respectful children aged twelve plus. Despite his size he walks well on a lead and is a pleasure to walk. He loves to swim and spent most of his summers at the shelter in the pool studying the resident frogs!

Adoption Terms & Conditions

When you adopt a Safe Rescue dog, you MUST use a slip lead. This will keep your dog safe: your new dog will be nervous and will not trust you, and you will not know which situations might upset your dog. If your dog panics, then a slip lead is the only way to prevent your dog from escaping (many dogs can escape from a collar and/or harness). It will take AT LEAST 3-6 months for your dog to settle-in and for you to know your dog fully (longer for nervous dogs). The slip lead must ALWAYS be used during this settling-in period. Even after your dog is settled, it is safest to use the slip lead in situations where your dog may become scared (e.g. visiting new places, around unfamiliar people, at the vet), and it situations where unexpected triggers might happen (e.g. around bonfire night). Nervous dogs may always need to wear a slip-lead as a back-up safety measure. The slip lead is a safety device and must NEVER be used as a training tool. Using the lead to apply pressure to the dog’s neck is damaging. If your dog pulls on the lead, then we can advise you on training methods that avoid harm. Once your dog is settled, you may want to consider using a harness (together with the slip lead) if your dog is comfortable with being handled when it is fitted. Most harnesses are not escape-proof, but harnesses with a strap behind the ribcage (e.g. Ruffwear Webmaster or Perfect Fit Harnesses) are safer. Retractable / extendable leads must never be used on our dogs. Adopted dogs must be collected from the rescue and transported straight home in a secure metal crate. Fences and gates must be 5foot minimum in height and secure.
