A4889079 Thor is a gentle, noble 8-year-old black-and-tan male German Shepherd who came to the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center as a stray from Covina on October 19th. Weighing 67 lbs, this handsome gentleman is somewhat tattered, having been, it appears, through some tough times as a stray and as a backyard dog who didn’t get his fair share of care and attention (Thor has fly-strike wounds on his ears, alopecia on his bum, and callouses on his elbows). But despite these better-left-behind days, this big bear is remarkably polite, has a loving nature, and is self-confidently laid-back. He shows signs of being housebroken, is fine with other dogs (he was non-reactive to barking dogs during a kennel pass-through), and is at ease with, friendly with, and attentive to humans. He doesn’t seem to have had formal leash training, but that’s not an issue, because he is easy to handle on leash and needs only the slightest tug to get him to come right back to his handler. We’d love to see Thor get the care and attention he needs and deserves as an inside pet and companion in the home of an individual or family (including kids—we think he’d like kids and kids would like him!) who understands the joys associated with giving “better days ahead” to a big ol’ deserving sweetheart of a dog.

Mission:
United Hope for Animals is dedicated to reducing homelessness among companion animals through spay/neuter, shelter support, photography, video and networking of shelter animals in Southern California. It is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization working to end homelessness among companion animals by supporting shelter adoptions and spay/neuter programs. Through our Shelter Support Program, our volunteers photograph and video shelter pets to increase their chances of adoption significantly. Our volunteer Adoption Coordinators help facilitate adoptions of shelter pets. United Hope for Animals supports rescue, spay/neuter and networking of shelter pets to increase their chances of adoption. UHA is not a shelter, but supports shelters to help increase visibility of animals who might not otherwise be seen.
