Kenai is a 3.4 year old Alaskan Malamute in Anacortes, WA, who needs $1,800 for Cluster Seizure Treatment.

My boyfriend and I got Kenai as a puppy around a year after the death of my previous rescue Malakai, he died due to a heart tumor, he was my companion for 10 years. Just shy of a year after getting Kenai, we got him a companion Malamute, his sister, Luna. Both of them are fixed, just to be clear there was no intention of breeding. We love them very much. We don't have children, we have fur babies!

In June 2024 Kenai unexpectedly had a cluster seizure event. He had never had any seizure activity prior. We rushed him to the ER and by the time we got there he had already had upwards of 10 seizures that lasted around a minute. He's had a total of 5 cluster seizure events as of Oct 12. 2024. Each visit we have added meds or adjusted doses and tried to make a game plan to manage his seizures.

Kenai is in many ways a stereotypical Malamute! He is very strongly opinionated and will vocalize his opinions, he LOVES food. He absolutely loves going in water, whether that is a small dog pool, a river, a lake, the ocean, he always wants to dip his paws in the water.
We love Kenai very much and when he isn't having a seizure day he's a happy healthy boy.

Due to us not knowing when Kenai will have a seizure episode I recently stopped working to be available to give him his medication. With one income we are struggling to keep up with the vet bills. Each ER visit is 1600$ minimum plus meds. It's been a once a month ordeal.
