HI IM LOKI🦹🏽♂️🐶
Yes, that Loki — whirlwind of paws🐾, prince of zoomies🤴🏽, and official Doggie Grandson of the Woof Pack (very important title, I think😏).
I started daycare recently, which is basically the greatest invention in the history of ever🤩. Imagine a place where every single thing moves, squeaks, bounces, or wags🐭 — and you’re allowed to chase all of it🏃. That’s daycare. I arrive like a small, scruffy hurricane💨, and leave like… well, a slightly more tired hurricane😴.
I love my furry friends😍. All of them. Immediately. Intensely. Sometimes I love them so much that I forget they might not want to be rugby tackled at full speed🏉. Or nibbled😬. Or pounced on from behind like a stealthy (but not very stealthy) jungle predator🐯. I’m learning though. Apparently “gentle” is a thing. Apparently “take a break” is also a thing. I have… questions about both🧐.
There’s also this word humans keep using: “No.”
Now, I’ve heard it a lot. I mean, a lot.
“No, Loki.”
“No biting.”
“No, not like that.”
“No, that’s not a toy.”
I’m starting to think “No” might be my second name🤨.
But here’s the thing — I’m trying. I really am🤓. Sometimes I catch myself mid-pounce and switch to a polite bounce instead. Sometimes I remember that not every ear is for tugging👂. Sometimes I even sit when asked🐒… briefly… before the excitement explodes out of me again like fireworks🧨.
Everything is just so exciting🤪. The smells, the sounds, the friends, the grass🌾, the humans, the toys that may or may not be toys — how is a puppy supposed to stay calm when the world is this brilliant😃!
They say I’m making good progress. I don’t know exactly what “progress” is, but it seems to make the humans smile😊, and I like that. I like making everyone happy almost as much as I like chasing things😎.
Okay, maybe not almost as much. But it’s close🤏.
Anyway, I’ve got important business to get back to — there’s a friend across the room who hasn’t been enthusiastically greeted in the last 12 seconds, and that simply won’t do🤷🏼♂️.
I’m Loki.
I’m learning.
I’m loving.
And I’m definitely not done zooming yet😜!
