Nick Walker shares the saddening news

Back in November 2021, Nick ‘The Mutant’ Walker took to his social media to welcome the newest member of his family. It was a black-and-white XL American Bulldog puppy named Thor. Last night, Walker shared the heartbreaking news that the puppy has passed away in a ‘hit and run’ accident. He wrote, “Nothing prepares you for a sudden loss. Yesterday, we got the most heart breaking and unexpected news. Our little boy Thor passed away due to a hit and run. Our hearts are shattered and sometimes things don’t make sense the more you try to make sense of them.”

Furthermore, he added it’s a hard time for his family, who is grieving the loss of the pup. Moreover, he warned that no negative comments on this post will be entertained. Anyone going down that road will be blocked instantly. Walker reasoned that the only reason he is sharing the news on social media is that many of the fans have been invested in the life of the puppy. Hence, he urged everyone to be respectful.
