Supernatural Abilities Emerging

Hello fellow earth inhabitants! Welcome to another of my Thor's Day posts!

My mastery of human steps has improved since last week. But more importantly, my supernatural abilities are starting to emerge!!

What? You've never seen a dog fly?!?
Here I am taking a test flight in my Caretakers' kitchen. Just testing stability and maneuverability before going full on. Much like Jarvis wanted to have Tony Stark do with his original Iron Man suit - and we all know how that turned out...

I, on the other hand, don't need a suit, my abilities come naturally.

I think I missed a spot over there, dang.

Here I am a few days later helping Food mow the yard. You can see I'm very attentive to detail and am actually going over the yard a second time to ensure every blade is cut evenly. A job not done well is not worth doing - I always say. Well, OK, I've never said that before, but you get the idea.

Take the dam picture! This car's not holding itself up!
My super strength is building as well. Again, Food needed my help (still can't fathom how he got along without me all these years). So, I came to his aid and held his car up while he changed the tires. Where is he? Well, someone had to take the picture!!

Many of you may be saying "I thought Thor's power came from his hammer." That's not entirely true. The hammer enhances and directs the power within. But you have to be worthy of that power to wield the hammer. My hammer is still being forged from the core of a dying star. It has too be custom made just for me - due to my diminutive (yet powerful) size.

I think I need a bigger house...

Well, I see it is getting late once again and I need my beauty sleep. So until next Thor's Day, have a wonderful week, my adoring fans!!

Always here to help

I am the Yin and the Yang
As from the previous post, I do have Yin to my Yang. For one thing I'm incredible cute and adorable. But even more so I am very helpful around the house. Frankly I don't know how my Caretakers survived without me.
Defeated! The Dragon King submits!!
First, there is the occasional invasion of the Dragon King that I must fight off. He is a fearsome opponent and much larger than myself. But I find his weakness in his horns. Once I have them firmly in my mighty jaws, I shake him violently into submission. I promise to will my Caretaker, Food, into video taping my next encounter with the Dragon King - for while he is a fierce opponent, he is not smart enough to know when he has been defeated, and always comes back for a rematch.


Then there is the Loki-Droid. After his humiliating defect in 'Avengers', Loki transferred his essence into a more powerful robot - still not more powerful than I. This week, Loki-Droid dropped in threatening the sanctitude of my humble abode. I fought him long and hard until he was finally driven away! It was a glorious fight, and Food caught some of it on video. Beware, some parts may be too gruesome for younger viewers.


I'm constantly on patrol, though I've not yet mastered steps...


There is work in the yard that needs to be handled as well. While Food does the occasional mowing, it seems to be my responsibility to handle the larger jobs. My Caretaker, Love, has requested a tree be removed from the backyard. I figured a few more weeks and I'll have it felled for her. What giant cottonwood could stand up to the jaws of the mighty Thor?!!

Rest for the weary warrior
Well, its getting past my bedtime, so have a wonderful week and we'll meet again next Thor's Day!!

 P.S. The spot some of you may have noticed on my back in a small sore due to a local infection received during a bout with one of my kin. My caretakers have taken me to specialists and I am receiving excellent care and treatment. It is healing nicely. Thanks for asking.

Everybody's Got a Dark Side...

Do You Love Me? Can You Love Mine?
As with all Superheros, we have our dark sides too. Its the Yin and Yang of life. Great good must be balanced by great evil. I am no exception. I bite fingers and toes, chew on furniture, eat rocks, chew electrical cords, lick power outlets, pee in the house. And after 7pm I get really wild! All rules are thrown out the window and its open season on anyone's toes and fingers. So watch out!!
Why? Well, because I can! Nuf said.


To stay it top form and ensure my teeth are needle sharp, I chew on concrete steps. See the chunks I've already disposed of?

Witness one of my humble abodes. Note that the bars are for your protection...

On a positive side, I have taught my Caretakers to predict when I am going to sit, announce that I am doing so and also give me a treat. So my mind-meld is going well and they are actually trainable.

Power Up!
There are times too when I need to recharge. Not unlike Superman, I get much of my energy from the Earthling's yellow Sun.


Then there are times when I want to play, but understand its my Caretakers who need the exercise more than I. So I let them pull me along. They get great enjoyment out of it. I figure its the least I can do.

Sporting my Superhero cape

And finally, my last Dr's visit went flawlessly. I had gained 1.08 kg (2.4 lbs) and now tips the scales at 4.35 kg (9.6 lbs). And its all pure muscle!! No, really. Hey! No laughing!! I can HEAR YOU!!!

Thor's Day #3 - Pleased to Meet you...

Yes, you may throw flowers...
All style and fashion aside, I've matured enough to accept who I am and what I am....and I'm damn proud of it - ears and all!!

So, do you know now what breed of canine I am? I know before I looked a bit like a Pug, but it should be clear now that is just not the case. Leave your best guess below in the comments if you like. There is no prize for being right - other than the fact that you'll know you're almost as smart as me! :) :) :)

Does this make my butt look big?
 It started getting cooler here this week so my Caretakers, Love and Food, decided that with my diminutive (yet powerful) size, I might need some insulative support this winter.

Get this damn thing off me!
Most of the time, I'm all good with that, but it does tend to put a cramp on my acrobatic abilities.

Once again, the term "Smelling like a Dog" came up and my Caretakers swept into immediate action. I tried to reason, tried to object, tried to bit and scratch, but to no avail. Wait until they here from my attorney...
I have been able to keep them from taking unflattering photos or videos...so far.
BTW: If they are so turned off by "Dog Smell", why didn't they buy a lizard? I mean, really....

Food finally figured out how to get the video option on his phone to work. While its not the best representation of my extensive abilities, it will do for now. Hope you appreciate my beautiful athletic form.
