About this campaign
Thor, so named as he is a Dane, a Viking, and he has a white T on his chest, what else could he be named?
He came from a private breeder in California chosen by us from a litter of 12- mother and grandfather were on the premises so we knew he would grow up to be a handsome boy looking at them! We have had him since he was 12 weeks old and he will be 8 at the end of January 2026.
It was the worst start to New Years Day ever- Thor developed bloat so required immediate attention to untwist his stomach and remove his spleen also- Hearts Alive Village vets in Las Vegas operated on him immediately and thankfully he survived the surgery- we got him back 3 days later and he appears to have made a fine recovery from such a major surgery and we look forward to more years with him.
He is a real character and I take him everywhere that dogs are allowed in restaurants and stores- he will just proudly stand there head held high and let everyone pet him, At home he lives with our 4 lbs rescue gray tabby Samantha who of course rules the roost! He is a typical good natured Dane who thinks he is a lap dog as you can see in some of my attached photos.
I an 72 and retired although I do some part time work at a PetSmart as a dog trainer, a labor of love of course, My wife Diane is also retired so being on fixed incomes a hit for major surgery out the blue is very difficult financially so any help would be so appreciated.
