Ke-ola loves to go on walks with Kadante

Ke-ola went for a walk with his foster brother this morning. He loves to get out and about with Kadante. We want Ke-ola to learn about his surroundings and help him get some energy out. It can be challenging at times because we don't want to push him too much but at the same time want to help move his lungs. He seems to be breathing well when he gets back and doesn't pant much so I think we have a good pace for him now.

I tried to do a sun meditation with him but he was not about to sit still today. I decided to roll the tennis ball to him. He seemed to like that much more. Ke-ola is doing very well with his basic commands of sit, wait, off, down. He also is doing very well with his crate training. He is a smart boy. He does need work with socialization and excitement but it is to be expected. This boy had to survive on the streets of Carson so it will take time for him to learn what life is like in suburbia.

Ke-ola is an active boy with a great deal of energy. You'd never know he was still so sick by looking at him. It is difficult for him right now because we still have him separated from the other dogs and he needs more excersise than one morning walk/run. Roland and Kadante are out with him at this moment with a new daily evening walk/run added. We hope that by giving him more activity and mild exercise it will help his health and his energy level.

When I look into his eyes I see a love for life. I see someone that knows he's been given a second chance to live the life he'd only dreamed of and he doesn't want to waist a minute of it. He only stops when you offer him a belly rub, ear rub or affection. He loves affection even more than he loves his food. That speaks volumes about his personality especially with the extreme hunger he has experienced.


Wishing you and your pack Peace, today and everyday. Thank you for visiting.
