|  Welcome to the True Hearts of Rottweiler Rescue [THORR] home page. THORR is both the name of the rescue, and the name of our founder’s inspiration, a Rottweiler named Thor who could open the refrigerator to help himself to dinner, then turn on the kitchen faucet for a quick drink. Just your typical smart and sassy Rottweiler!
We hope you enjoy the information presented here about the rescue and the breed, and find it in your heart to help however you can—as a foster home, as a driver to transport dogs in need, as an educator at adoption events, as an adoption counselor, and if time is a problem, as a generous financial donor.
Thank you for supporting THORR.

|  THORR is overwhelmed with Rottweiler puppies in need of deserving homes. These adorable scamps range in age from roughly 3 to 10 months old, males and females. Like all puppies, they’re darling, full of energy, curious, playful, getting into things, but have no training whatsoever.
Just a reminder that you’ll be taking on the responsibility for housebreaking, socialization and obedience training along with lots of puppy love and laughter. THORR is rigorous in its screening of all potential adopters, and even more so in the case of potential puppy homes. Still interested? Complete and submit an application at www.thorr.org/adopt |

| Top 10 Reasons to Adopt A Rescue Dog |
|
10) In a Word—Housebroken.
With most family members gone during the workweek for 8 hours or more, house-training a puppy and its small bladder can take awhile. Puppies need a consistent schedule with frequent opportunities to eliminate where you want them to. They can't wait for the boss to finish his meeting or the kids to come home from after school activities. An older dog can "hold it" much more reliably for longer time periods, and usually the Rescue has him housebroken before he is adopted.
9) Intact Underwear.
With a chewy puppy, you can count on at least 10 mismatched pairs of socks and a variety of unmentionables rendered to the "rag bag" before he cuts every tooth. And don't even think about shoes! Also, you can expect holes in your carpet (along with the urine stains), pages missing from books, stuffing exposed from couches, and at least one dead remote control. No matter how well you watch them, it will happen—this is a puppy's job! An older dog can usually have the run of the house without destroying it.
8) A Good Night's Sleep.
Forget the alarm clocks and hot water bottles, a puppy can be very demanding at 2am and 4am and 6am. He misses his littermates, and that stuffed animal will not make a puppy pile with him. If you have children, you've been there and done that. How about a little peace and quiet? How about an older rescue dog?
