About this campaign
Kenai came into our life at 7 weeks old. We had lost one of our dogs a few months prior to cancer, and as devastating as it was, Kenai brightened up our world. My husband and I live full time in an RV and were unsure about puppy training, but he's a natural "road dog" he fit right in & loves having a new yard, new smells, and new friends ever few weeks.
Kenai gave us reason to smile again.
Kenai started limping this past weekend, and after watching it for a few days we realized it was getting worse so we took him to his vet (who we love). We got devastating news that at just 8 months he has severe hip dysplasia and will require Total Hip Replacement to give him a good quality of life. We are going to Kinetic Veterinary Specialists for surgery as our vet only does the FHO surgery.
To tell you how Kenai is special would take forever. First, he is the goofiest, fun-loving pup ever! When you see him at 103 pounds it's hard to imagine he's still a baby! He loves squeak toys, especially when I'm on a work call! He wants to sit wherever his older sister (4yr old mix) is.. Much to her dismay! He pulls his "blankie" out of his crate when he needs a nap. He is our world for sure.
My husband took a 30 ft fall at work 4 years ago and can not work. We lost our 4 year old male in May. Trying to save my pup means everything to me as I can't see losing him so young. We barely get by financially as it is so we really need some help
