Description:

Meet Thorton!

Thorton came from a very abusive home where he was tied outside and beat with a pipe. Given his history, Thorton is slower to warm up to new people and would do best in a home willing to work with him and understanding his need to come to people on his own terms. This includes letting him sniff a new person and letting him walk away until he is ready to interact with them.

Thorton is house and crate trained. He loves his foster fur sister and is very eager to learn new things.

Thor has been through enough in a 1yr and a half and deserves to have the best life moving forward. We are looking for a home that will continue with the training and socialization methods set in place by his amazing foster dad. He needs patience, structure and most of all a soft hand and voice.

He would do best in a home without small children or cats. Another confident dog in the home will make all the difference in Thor’s world and allow him to continue to shine.

Check out his video! Not to worry - he doesn't howl all the time, only when his foster dad plays a video of wolves doing it. Love the way he actually tips his head back and really gets into it!.

If you are looking for a giant loving soul who will give you his full devotion in exchange for continuing to help him gain his confidence Please apply below!

*The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. Sometimes the pets appear to be a particular breed(s) in the pictures we receive from our rescue partners and when they arrive we are surprised to see an entirely different breed(s) in person! If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess. It is with deep longing that we wish there was a breed called "cute" as we believe all of our dogs would fall under this new breed classification!

Completion of an Adoption Application via our website www.midwestanimalrescue.org is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in our adoption process.

*Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption.

When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.
