Loki is our therapy dog in training and the most enthusiastic member of the Apex Endodontic Studio team. While “calm” may be a stretch (he is, after all, a dachshund), Loki takes his role as practice protector very seriously and makes sure everyone knows when someone new has arrived. His big personality and loyal nature bring smiles to patients and staff alike. Outside of the office, Loki enjoys cuddling and chasing his best friend, Logan the cat, who tolerates him just enough to remain his favorite companion.
