HI
Kia is OK and the tumor was not cancerous.

We are very happy and I want to thank all of you for your prayers and kind wishes.

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

Thanks again for being our friend
Candy, Tom and of course....Kia.

 

Thank you for your kind thoughts

Hi Everyone,

Kia had her little surgery yesterday and is home with a bandage on her tail. So far she has been really good at not trying to get it off, and when I see her trying to get to it, I tell her NO and she leaves it alone.
When she had the collar on she stood like a statue for over an hour so we took it off.

We should know the results by Saturday hopefully.

Thanks for all of the nice thoughts and well wishes for Kia.

I've adopted dogs before but have never had such a great experience as I have with Kia. Dogster is awesome and Frank & Kim and Kim Z have been wonderful. In a few weeks we must plan to meet at a dog park so we can reunite Kia with your dogs. I hope everyone can come.

Thanks again.
Candy

 

Kia has her 2nd class

Today Kia learned to walk and sit so others could pet her...
She learned to see a treat and not take it and then was rewarded with another treat in our other hand...
She learned to leave the treat on the floor and not get it and she learned to walk past the treat and "leave it".

There was a lady in the store who saw Kia and asked if she was a Rhodesian Ridgeback????

We did some research and agree that she may be mixed with the Ridgeback breed. Her back and tail have the markings of the Ridgeback and her tail looks like it is braided. When we saw the pictures of some of the Ridgeback dogs, it was like looking at Kia.
Look up the breed and let me know what you think.
