My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Loki: The Sweet Herding Boy in Need of a Loving Home!

Loki is a charming pup who came to us from the Ponca City shelter in late spring 2021. He’s a typical herding breed with a heart full of love and a playful spirit!

On walks, Loki is super sweet and eager to explore, but being a herding breed, he can get a bit excited and nip at times. For this reason, a home without children would be the best fit for him. He thrives with consistent training and responds well to verbal corrections or even a gentle spray from a water bottle. He’s a champ at sitting for treats and loves to shake paws!

Loki will need a structured environment and a strong leader to help bring out his best qualities. While he’s been playful with small dogs, he hasn’t done well with dogs his size or larger. Therefore, a home without other dogs would be ideal for his safety and comfort.

Athletic and energetic, Loki jumps high and loves to climb, so a secure 6-foot fence in his new home is a must! This smart boy would greatly benefit from the love and attention of a foster or adopter who can help him thrive.

If you're ready to provide a structured, loving environment for Loki, he will reward you with endless affection and loyalty. Let’s help Loki find his forever home!

Formal intro with all family members/pets. If you like you can do a 5 day trial then pay and sign contract and enjoy your new family member!

Additional adoption info

For us, the adoption process begins the day we take a dog or cat into our rescue. It’s a huge responsibility, taking in a lost soul and promising them a happy life, but we are pretty proud of the forever families we’ve helped create because our adoption process is so thorough.

The first step in adopting is to fill out the adoption application. This helps our volunteers understand what kind of new friend you are looking for, and allows us to identify any issues that would prevent us being able to place certain animals in certain homes. For example, breed restrictions in your town or apartment complex, etc…

The Beauties will conduct a vet check to make sure the pets you currently have are all up-to-date on vaccinations and spayed or neutered. We will also contact you to set up a home visit, where we can make sure that the home you have meets the needs of the animal you are interested in. Example: fence height for dogs who are jumpers, stairs for dogs who have mobility challenges, etc… We try to troubleshoot any potential problem areas and offer friendly advise so that our ultimate goal, a forever happy match, can be achieved.

After the application process is complete, the real fun begins! It’s time for Meet-N-Greets! We have a professional dog trainer on our board of directors, and we can schedule her assistance in helping you with dog-to-dog introductions while you are searching for your new family member. It’s amazing how often the existing family pet has a little something to say about who they want to spend time with and having a pro help out makes the potential for a successful intro go through the woof! We mean, roof!

Once you have decided on the dog or cat of your dreams, all that is left to do is sign the adoption contract and pay the fee, which includes all vaccinations, microchip and spay/neuter.

Beauties and Beasts is a state-licensed 501(c)(3) death row rescue located in Wichita, Kansas. Since our founding in October 2014, we have been able to save the lives thousands of death row animals, we have also been able to network out thousands more animals to other rescues. We are a completely 100% volunteer run rescue, we also rely on 100% donations from our followers and supporters to carry out our mission to save animals in our community.

Our purpose is to rescue death row animals from the shelter and in our community and place them in foster homes where they can receive the care and training needed to become family pets. Our main mission is to change these animals’ worlds one rescue at a time. Another large part of our mission is to be a voice for animals in need throughout our community and we are proud to say we have been able to make an impact on the streets of our city as well.

We do not discriminate against breed, age, medical needs, or behavior. We love ALL animals and breeds the same.
