My story

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

Meet Loch, the "LOCHness monster of LOVE!" He is a stunning brindle boy with a heart as big as his beautiful coat. Social, friendly, and always happy to make new canine friends, he brings an easygoing charm wherever he goes.

This sweet guy has been through TWO TPLO knee surgeries, and while he's handled them with resilience, his body hasn't bounced back the way we hoped. He'll need ongoing care and future support for his knees, including removal of the hardware, so he's looking for a dedicated family ready to love him through it all ♥

Loch's personality is a delightful mix of cuddly companion and goofy mischief-maker. He adores snuggling up with his people, but don't let that soft side fool you-he is a certified destroyer of plush toys and will absolutely swallow them if given the chance. (Hard toys only for this boy!) Loch gets along wonderfully with other dogs and has lived with kids and cats (though he does enjoy a good game of "chase the kitty" if allowed!).

Currently in foster care, Loch could move into a foster-to-adopt home if his new person or family is ready to help him finish his recovery.

📍 Please note: Loch is not viewable at the shelter. If you'd like to meet him, please fill out an adoption application. Only approved applicants will be contacted for a meet and greet.
