About Loki

Meet Loki, a playful herding mix with a sharp mind and a lot of heart. He landed in Wichita, KS after coming from the Ponca City shelter in spring 2021 and has been waiting for the right person ever since. Loki brings the classic fun and energy you’d expect from a Labrador Retriever and Border Collie blend—eager to explore on walks, always chasing adventure. He loves training, sits neatly for treats, and can shake a paw with the best of them. His herding side pops out when he gets wound up, so nipping is a thing; that makes him better suited to a home without children. He’ll need a structured environment and an adopter who understands strong leadership and consistency. A secure, tall (at least 6-foot) fence is nonnegotiable—this guy is athletic and can clear some serious height when excited. Loki plays well with small dogs but finds dogs his size or larger too much, so he should be your only canine companion. Ready to give a smart, loyal dog a second chance? Loki’s set to pay you back with devotion and enthusiasm if you can provide the direction and calm he thrives on. Every Sagittarius like Loki is known for having a bold, adventurous spirit—making him a memorable companion. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
