The Hippest Hound

Loki, Age 13

Loki was born to a pure bred Labrador show dog who got out one night and came home “in a family way”.   The litter was brought into the Yamhill County animal shelter, where Loki met  Leo,  a little boy eager to find his first dog.  Loki waddled over to Leo, sat down in front of him, and licked him on the nose.  They have been the best of friends ever since. 

But that’s not the end of the story . . . Leo had been born with a  debilitating liver condition;  almost from day one Loki became his champion and protector, and over the years Loki was trained to perform a variety of tasks for Leo.  Leo delighted in baking the homemade treats used to train Loki,  and Leo’s mom had experience as a caterer, so Leo let her help.   As Leo’s medical condition worsened, there were times when his faithful dog was the only one who could console him.  Loki rose to the challenge with phenomenal grace, sailing through the process to become Leo’s Service Dog and constant companion, providing comfort at medical appointments, along with his other duties. 
 

The love that the boy poured into his dog came full circle, as it always does.  Leo had rescued Loki from the pound, and Loki rescued Leo from the limitations of chronic illness, and was at his side as Leo recovered from a liver transplant at the tender age of 12.  With Loki’s devotion and support, Leo made a full recovery, and although they are still a dynamic duo,  Loki has been able to retire from his service dog duties, at the ripe old age of 12.  Leo now has his own organic dog biscuit company, and Loki taste tests every batch!
 

Named for the Celtic God of Mischief, he has been nothing but a blessing, and the best dog anyone could hope for, and in the humble opinion of his family, the hippest hound ever!
