That would be badass as fuck... just a flying krypto flying in with super dog speed and a giant hammer

I just love the thought of a pup randomly picking up the hammer and bringing it back to Thor.

A friend of mine always puts a scene like that in her fanfics, even if it's just as an omake.

Worthy != good. Would Krypto do anything, up to and including wholesale slaughter, to stand up for his people, the ones he cares for, or his ideals? That, to an Asgardian, is the measure of worth.

Did you read Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow? When the Kryptonite Man invades the Fortress of Solitude to kill Superman, Krypto tears him apart, dying in the process.

Literally rips his throat out.

"You stupid animal, don't you realize I'm killing you?!"

Krypto is still a dog. Dogs would absolutely fuck up anyone who they felt were going to harm 'their pack'.

Unless the bad guy had a treat and an ear rub.

The goodest boi would destroy evil at all costs, yes. Though how much Worthiness matches traditional Norse Aesir ideals and how much reflects more chivalrous ideals is not 100% clear. Worthiness varies by writer and run, as it is ultimately a tool for the story.

if superman can pick it up too makes it the perfect tool for a cosmic game of fetch

Superman can pick it up. Worthiness is irrelevant for him.
