Gentle giant who helped owner with grief after mum's death wins dog show
Briefly

Tracey Tallintire, owner of Loki, expressed her pride in her German Shepherd, emphasizing her desire to dispel misconceptions about larger dog breeds, stating, 'So many people are scared of big dogs, and I just want to show that they're not necessarily scary.' Her heartfelt perspective highlights the animal's friendly nature, challenging the prevailing stereotype.
Loki not only won the 'best in show' award but also secured the titles of 'golden oldie' and 'handsome prince.' Tracey articulately shared her experience of people crossing the street to avoid her dog, lamenting, 'I have left the park before in tears after seeing groups of people with their Cockapoos and their Labradors, and then everyone seems to cross the road when it comes to big dogs.'
Tracey shared that Loki has been instrumental not just in her life, helping her cope with the grief of her mother’s passing, but also in assisting her daughter Scarlett, who previously feared dogs. She stated, 'Loki has helped her daughter Scarlett get over her fear of dogs,' emphasizing the bond they share and the emotional impact Loki has had on their lives.
