*Meet Loki: The Senior Boy with a Big Heart and an Even Bigger Love for Breakfast!* ***COURTESY POST****
Loki is a calm, cool, and collected senior husky who knows how to enjoy the finer things in life-like a good cuddle and an uninterrupted nap, even during the loudest thunderstorms or seven straight days of professional-grade fireworks from your neighbors next-door. He's a pro at staying zen.
When it comes to food, Loki is a bit of a foodie! His favorites include chicken, liver, sweet potatoes, peaches, rice, green beans, peas, peanut butter, bone broth, and yogurt. Sometimes he'll humor me with a frozen blueberry. He knows what he likes, and who can blame him?
Around the house, Loki is the definition of a well-mannered gentleman. He's never torn up anything and just needs a little initial guidance on the leash for his bathroom breaks. Inside, he roams freely and enjoys hanging out with my girl, Betty. They get along well both indoors and outdoors. I'm still working on getting them to play at full throttle, but Betty tends to get a bit concerned when Loki gets too bouncy and vocal. Poor guy just wants a buddy who understands his playful energy. If you have a dog around Betty's size (45-55lbs, Staffordshire Terrier mix), and they tolerate playful energy, they'd likely be a good match!
*Loki's Morning Routine:*
Loki may be 10 years old, but when it's breakfast time, he's got the energy of a puppy! His hops, skips, and gentle jumps are a daily highlight. He's very respectful-keeping just enough distance that his little toe taps barely graze you as you walk to the kitchen.
*Walks Are Life:*
The next big event in Loki's day? Walks! Grab a leash, and he knows it's about to go down. He'll circle and pounce with excitement at the door. But he's a gentleman about it-he knows that no walk starts until he comes to me and waits patiently to be hooked up. He might tug a bit during the first 10-15 minutes, but after that, it's smooth sailing by your side.
*A Few Fun Facts:*
Loki has some typical husky traits. If there's an opportunity for escape-a cracked door or an open gate-he's not going to say no to a little adventure. That said, he's never tried to dig, squeeze, or jump out of my backyard. He just does his business and waits to come back inside.
As I type this, Loki is laying next to me on the couch, enjoying some ear, neck, chest, and back scratches-his favorite things! He's a sweet, loving boy who just needs a family that will give him the love and patience he deserves after everything he's been through.
