RANCHO PALOS VERDES—A dog that spent nearly two years waiting for a new home has been adopted by a family in Rancho Palos Verdes.

Melvin—who has since been renamed Loki—was matched to the Maguires, who were in search of the “perfect pit” to join their two other dogs, according to spcaLA officials.
