I think Thor has a better chance of changing back to his old self once he gets over the hurdle of so many changes in his life. Dogs hate change and are creatures of habit.
I wish I could help. All I can suggest is making a schedule and sticking to it. I have a tough Yorkie that was misrepresented to me by his breeder plus 2 other dogs. I have had to protect them from him. I have worked on obediance with him and praise, praise, plus reward when he gets it right, not perfect but right. He's getting better and I let him play with the others with my supervising. I never thought we'd get where we are at now. If you can get Thor to do something to warrent praise and make a big deal over him, it's a start to building up his confidence, after so many changes he must feel so insecure and confused. He doesn't understand what you expect from him.
