In the shelter’s words

Meet Thorne: A Little Survivor with a Whole Lot of Brilliance! Thorne’s story didn’t start the way any puppy’s should. This 1 1/2 year old boy was found locked in a closet with his two siblings as part of a Georgia cruelty case. But that heartbreaking beginning is just one chapter of his story, and his future is looking SO much brighter! Now in foster care, Thorne is absolutely excelling in every way, and his foster mom can’t say enough wonderful things about him! She describes him as wicked smart, gorgeous, and pretty much perfect… and honestly, who are we to argue?! He settled in extremely quickly and made himself at home, integrating in with her current dogs. This handsome boy is already showing off his brains and adventurous spirit! He’s been hiking, enjoying trips to the beach , and learning all kinds of new things. He’s mastered “sit” and is currently working on “down” — because being brilliant is a full-time job!Thorne has a medium energy level, making him a great balance of fun and chill. He’s ready for adventures, new experiences, and then some quality time with his people. Whether it’s exploring a trail, feeling the sand between his paws, or learning his next trick, this boy is making the most of his second chance. He’s come so far from the dark place where his story began, and now he just needs someone to help him write the happiest chapters yet. Could Thorne be your perfect match? He’s smart, stunning, adventurous, and apparently pretty perfect according to his foster mom.
