About Loki

Meet Loki, a 10-year-old, 45lbs Husky/Heeler mix searching for her forever home—a place where she can truly feel safe. Rescued at the last moment with her sister Luna, Loki has shown us that her bond with Luna was more about gaining confidence than companionship. Loki is a sensitive soul who tends to feel anxious around new people and unfamiliar settings. She needs patience and time to settle in, but as she learns to trust, her true personality shines through. Once you gain her confidence, Loki transforms; she adores affection and becomes a playful puppy at heart, lightening up with a goofy grin and eager for your company. Other dogs play a crucial role in her comfort. Watching and mirroring them is key to her growth, so a calm, confident canine companion would be ideal for Loki. She possesses a nurturing side, often being quite gentle and patient with younger dogs, making her a great fit for a home with a little buddy who can benefit from her motherly instincts. Loki is generally not destructive when left alone, although her anxiety can show, so a consistent routine and lots of reassurance will help her. While she's been untested with cats, she hasn’t shown any concerning behaviors regarding prey drive, so we believe she could adjust well. This mellow girl would thrive in a calm environment with respectful kids or a relaxed dog to guide her. She won’t walk into your home like she runs the place; instead, she takes her time to understand that this space is hers. If you can give her that time and love, you’ll discover the goofy and affectionate companion she’s meant to be. Once she decides you're her person, don’t be surprised if she sticks close by.
