Kyo is a 9-year-old Malamute husky in Queen creek, AZ, who needs $1,680 for Adr protocol k9.

We got our dog kyo about 6 years ago, from a family that was unable to care for him anymore. He was being left outside and not getting the attention needed. We responded to the post and immediately fell in love. He was a handful at first, bringing him home and trying to re train him was no easy task. But since then he has been a great dog for our family.

We have 4 kids and another dog. He doesn't really play with other dogs too much, but he loves tug of war with humans. The kids love kyo because he looks like a mean dog, but he is really a big softie. They feel protected knowing that he will ward off any intruders with his angry looks, then go snuggle in bed on top of them.

We are on an extremely tight budget at this point in our lives. Im unable to pay for any of the tests to determine what is causing issues with kyo. Before covid I might have been able to find a vet that would take payments. I've even looked into shelters as a last resort.

A few months ago we started noticing kyo whining when he went outside to poop. We figured it might be his glands being swollen so we looked up what we could give him to help. We got a few remedies and it seemed to help. He passed a softball sized poop, but eventually kept getting worse. We took him to trilogy veterinary care and they gave us an estimate of the tests needed.

Kyo goes ape sh!t for walks! As soon as I grab the leash he is hoping around the house making all sorts of noises. He is a very vocal dog. He let's me know as soon as he is out of food or water, or if he needs anything. His body language is really easy to read. Kyo probably has the most personality out any dog I've ever had.
