Thor Royal is a 12-year-old Pitbull in Lincoln Park, MI, who needs $750 for Remove Mass on Ear- Possibly Surrounding Foreign Object.

I found Thor 12 years ago,he was a rescue from a backyard breeder. When I was healthy I volunteered as the Lincoln Park and Taylor animal shelters. I had information that they were going to round up the location. I found homes for the puppies. My husband picked out a cute black one but I was drawn to Thor. He was special. He is the only survivor of his pack.

Thor is a protector. When I passed out last time he woke Joey then came n licked my face till I awoke. He loves to play his n seek with his toys. He loves tug of war. He leads his little brother around the house and yard. When I have to do a medical treatment every night for an hour he remains by my side an nuzzles my head n arm to make sure I'm ok.he guards the cat also. Very kind and caring

When Thor hears certain beats or song he does these cute head movements to the beat like he's dancing. Sometimes at night he pushes between my husband and I and cuddles up to me with his nose to nose relaxing his head on the pillow. He also has the perfect stance. He sits up straight puffs out his chest and looks straight ahead. There are tons of things he does that makes his family smile.

5 months ago we had the neighbors little dog get in the yard. Thor was sniffing snowball and he bite his ear. Just a little puncture. We used antibiotic cream n kept it clean. Then about two months ago it swelled up horrible. We called the humane society everyday but was told maybe we can fit him in tomorrow. Finally when we called we told them we were afraid of him going. Septic then said it's a mass

I have numerous medical issues. We survive on SSI. We also take care of our son who has mild mental health issues. We have two pitbulls was three but my 16 year old passed. Without Thor around there would be a big hole in our family. He is not a dog he's my son
