About Loki

Loki is a lively 4-year-old Chihuahua and Miniature Pinscher mix who weighs in at just 7 pounds. He has a sparkling personality filled with charm and energy. This little guy is house-trained, though he may mark in new environments, and is also crate-trained. Loki gets along with other dogs he's met and is friendly with children, making him a great family companion. As a mix of Chihuahua and Min Pin, Loki represents the essence of both breeds. He's alert, clever, and full of character, balancing the confidence of a Min Pin with the affectionate nature of a Chihuahua. His ideal home has plenty of activity and companionship to keep him engaged. Loki thrives on interaction and is happiest in an environment that fosters his curiosity and love for exploration. Loki has a playful side, often darting around the house while indulging in his quirky habits — like being a chronic humper of soft toys and his bed.

He is also eager to learn new tricks, especially if treats are involved. Overall, Loki is a unique character who will bring joy, excitement, and affection to a loving home. He deserves an active family who can keep up with his zest for life and shower him with the attention he craves. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
