Story
Loki is a 2-year-old Border Collie mix and the sweetest boy ever! Weighing 60 pounds, he’s convinced he’s a lap dog, always eager to climb onto his humans for snuggles. One of his favorite ways to show affection is by putting both paws on your shoulders and nuzzling in for a hug. This quirky pup also likes to lay down to eat his food—just like the rest of us who enjoy a good meal on the couch!Loki has come a long way since arriving in his foster home. He is house trained on a regular schedule, and is pretty quiet overall, so he makes for a great roommate. While he loves being close to his humans, he settles well when left alone for a few hours. He now sleeps in the bedroom with the resident dogs at night and does just fine, happily curling up on the bed for snuggles. During the day, he’s left out in the house with both dogs and cats without any issues. He enjoys the company of other dogs and thrives with those that aren’t overly dominant, doing especially well when given a slow introduction. Loki did great at his last adoption event as well, behaving nicely with both people and other dogs. In terms of energy, Loki is a perfect balance—he loves to lounge and relax but is also up for a good play session. Fetch is one of his favorite games, and if you can’t reach a toy, don’t worry—he’ll bring it to you! He’s incredibly smart, playful, and eager to please, making him a wonderful companion. While a fenced yard is recommended for safe outdoor exploration, Loki has also shown great recall and stays close when outside without a leash.If you’re looking for an affectionate, fun-loving, and devoted companion, Loki is ready to bring his hugs into your life!If you are interested in this dog, fill out an application at this link to get the ball rolling - https://pethavenmn.org/adopt/adoptable-dogs/dog-adoption-application/The adoption fee is $450. Adoption fee includes spay/neuter, heartworm/Lyme test, all age-appropriate vaccinations (distemper, rabies, and Bordetella), heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, and microchip implant (including registration). Adoption fees INCLUDE a mandatory sales tax of 7.525%. Age and breed are based on veterinarian and intake professional's recommendation and not guaranteed as a rescue animal's history is often unknown.

However, we will consider up to 250 miles if the foster agrees to travel requirements and staff approval.
