About Thor

Thor is a sweet and social Akita who loves to hang out with his dad Odin and is SUPER snack motivated! Though he will do his best to convince you all snacks are for him, he does have food allergies and should stick to his special cookies.

About Akita Dogs

Akitas are powerful, noble dogs with a quiet dignity and fierce loyalty that's legendary. Originally from Japan, they're courageous and deeply devoted to their families. Akitas are naturally reserved and discerning, bonding most intensely with their primary caregivers.
