Thor:A tough pup! He thought that he was bad anyway!!
I encountered Thor on a hot sunny day. He was ready to kill when he saw my Canon 300 so I shot him and took off fast!

Thanks everyone. Yes he was a cutie but very vicious!
I'm a cat person and don't like being taken avantage of by a pooch. He would have torn me apart if he wasn't leashed .LOL.. #1756597

See that little mouth.
He was growling right then.
.. and when he barked his mouth was huge with a lot of razor sharp teeth.
He was smaller than my cat too.. #1757177
