(Find information on how to submit your own pet's profile at the bottom of this profile.)
Hermes
Name: Hermes, after the Greek god, not the fancy scarves
Nickname: Hermie, Herman, Hermie-Wormie, Wiggle-Butt
Species/breed: Boxer-lab cross
Age: 10
Fave food: If it is food, or if it touched food once, he will eat it.
Special tricks: Finding the tiniest bit of space to fit on the couch when you tell him there is no more room.
Best quality: Pure love and snuggles
Social media platform or handle, if available: He has a hashtag, #itwasHermes, for his many adventures.
Loki
Name: Loki, after the Norse god, not the Marvel character (she came first!)
Nickname: Loki-Lou, Lou-Lou, Wiggle-Nubbin
Species/breed: we joke she was put together by committee. She’s a super mutt
Age: 12.5
Fave food: Mushrooms. She will do anything for a mushroom.
Special tricks: She can give high five- and ten, shake paws, sit pretty, spin in a circle, and hold a treat on her nose until given permission to eat it.
Best quality: Calm sweetness
Social media platform or handle, if available: Her hashtag is #LokiToo because even though she’s older, Hermes is the bigger goofball and she tags along.
