“I believe dogs aren’t meant to live out their lives in a backyard or inside a house. I hate to see that. I hope we are inspiring people to get out, explore our world, and make memories with their pups,” says Kelly Lund.

It’s no surprise that Kelly Lund and his best friend, Loki lead an exciting life.

No one else understands adventure better than Lund. Together with his beloved three-year-old Loki, an irresistible Siberian husky, Malamute and Arctic Wolf hybrid, the two have been passionate about exploring the wilderness off-leash and having fun.

“I’ve traveled most of the Western United States with Loki. Our goal is to see as much as we can in his life. We love to find wilderness areas without people. Outside of Colorado, we have seen much of Utah, traveled through Wyoming, South Dakota, Idaho, Oregon, California and Nevada,” says Lund.

A typical day for Lund and Loki means having plenty of outdoor fun. “I’ve always been really into road-tripping, exploring new places, camping, outside activities, etc. When I brought Loki home, I did my best to restructure my life to include him in my activities instead of leaving him behind at the house. Believe it or not, I actually have a full-time job. I am the Outdoor Recreation Coordinator for the City of Denver. My work is diverse, and I don’t exactly have a normal day. Outside of work though, he runs next to me as I ride a bicycle quite a bit.
