'GoT' direwolf dog dies following cancer battle

A Northern Inuit dog from the Game of Thrones cast passed away after a four-month battle with cancer.

Named Odin, the 10-year-old pooch featured in the fantasy show – playing Bran Stark's direwolf, Summer.

Odin's family paid tribute to their beloved pet on social media on Thursday: "It's difficult to put into words how this has impacted us as a family, for Odin led a life like no other dog.

"Odin was a family member first and we got him when he was a pup at seven weeks old. All we wanted were big dogs to take hiking and to sleep at our feet in the evening beside the fire, everything after that was a bonus.

Odin's passing marks the end of a decade and the end of an era as he taught our friends and family a lot of lessons about life, for one dog he has more stories to tell than some people would [sic]."

Before his death, over £12,000 was raised to cover Odin's cancer treatment.
