Does Cleo Abram Have Any Pets?

Thor

Breed: Australian Shepherd | Adopted 2014

Cleo Abram and her husband Zach Reitano have a toy Australian Shepherd named Thor. Reitano got Thor a few months after they started dating in 2014. Cleo officially became Thor’s mom in 2016 after Cleo and Zach moved in together. Cleo said Zach named the pup Thor because “he’s a small guy, so he needed a big name.”

I do not literally consider him my son, but I do think that dog parenting is a real and hard thing. I think that people care about their dog’s happiness in the way that they do when they’re caring for another living thing, and that’s a great thing
