Thor and Loki's Page

Due North's Loki the Trickster April 1996 - March 2007

~Thor~

Image of Thor This is my purebred Siberian Husky buddy Thor (CKC Reg'd Toriloka's Legend of Thor). Beyond looking like a handsome devil, he's learning how to pull a sled with his buddy Loki, and he is as strong as a horse for a little guy. He is truly a northern breed dog in that he is insanely happy the colder it is outside. In the warmer months, one of his favorite past times is to hunt down bugs, and mangle tennis balls. This image was taken when Thor was 13 months old.
Thor was born on May 6th 1995.

Here's Thor in August 1997 at a little over 2 years old.

~Loki~

Here is Thor's best buddy in the whole world Loki (CKC Reg'd Due North's Loki the Trickster). Loki earns his name by getting himself into trouble all of the time. It seems his whole purpose for being is to nudge his way into mischief at every opportunity. For as much as Thor is laid back, cuddly and a relatively calm sort of fellow, Loki is gregarious and in your face to make sure that you know he's there.
Loki was born on April 12, 1996.
These pictures were taken in August 1997 at 16 months of age.
Loki died of cancer on March 13th, 2007.
I will provide more details on another page with a link from here soon.

You can tell how much Loki has changed since he was a little tyke from his puppy pictures below. His colour has gotten more silver/grey and his mask is almost entirely gone.

These pictures were taken when he was 10 weeks old.

"Hole, what hole? Where did that come from?"

"It was a cat I tell ya, I saw it! It was little, furry
and delicious looking."

"We're innocent....can't you tell?"

The story behind the names.
A lot of people have been asking about the kennel that I built for the boys.
