Meet Loki, one of the sweetest, snuggliest boys that have come to the shelter. He is 4 years old and 54 pounds, but don't let that fool you, he is a staffie on the smaller side and very timid until he opens up. At first he was very shy when we came into his kennel, but it only took a few minutes for him to warm up! Once he was comfortable, we collared him up and took him on a little walk. He did AMAZING! Did not pull at all, didn't mind seeing other dogs, and was actually really confident outside. He loved to explore! After his walk, he crawled right up into our volunteer's lap and forced his head under their arms so they would hold him and pet him. He was a true angel baby. Someone needs to snatch this cuddle bug up quick, because he would love to be out of that stressful shelter environment and in your arms instead. To come snuggle with Loki and see if he'd be the right fit for your home, stop by the shelter today!
If you're interested in learning more about Loki, please reach out to our volunteer matchmakers at wcac.matchmaker@gmail.com with the subject line "Loki 248476."
Loki is up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick, and heartworm prevention, is microchipped, and will be neutered prior to going home. If you have dogs or cats, we recommend slow introductions over time. If you have children in your home, we recommend supervision between animals and children at all times.
