Lively Loki is living the dream
Loki is an Alaskan malamute/Siberian husky/German shepherd cross who is just over three years old.
His people have discovered that this particular combo is also known as a Utonagan or Northern Inuit Dog, originally bred to resemble wolves but with a gentle temperament.
Loki was adopted from the Toronto Humane Society, and moved to Lions Bay at four months old so he could make the most out of his sled-dog genes. His humans say he is the cuddliest and most loving dog they've ever known, complete with no concept of personal space or any notion of just how large he is.
Loki is a working dog in the sense that he frequents his human's office several times a week, where he is so welcome that on his days off, everyone asks when he'll be back.
He's very snack-motivated, and therefore quick to learn. His favourite place to play is in snow or in water, and his daily hikes keep his tail wagging.
Keep living the dream, Loki!
