Kiya's Story

Hi, my name is Kiya (formerly Koko), and I was adopted by a fantastic family. We have a great big yard I play in and explore with my sister Sadie.  I love to play with my family outside too.  They throw toys and I run as fast as I can to catch them.  Sometimes, I get in a little trouble outside because I dig.  When it rains, I found out I can have a lot of fun making a mess of the yard and of myself.  My mom doesn’t think I should be digging but isn’t that what dogs do??  Anyway, every now and then I take a dip into the pool to cool my paws off, but as a pretty girl I don’t go all the way in because I am afraid to get my hair all wet.  

My mom takes me to training for obedience.  I’m not sure exactly what that obedience stuff is all about but I act like I am having fun because I get GREAT snacks if I cooperate! Although, I spit out the hot dogs last time because I didn’t like them.

I get to sleep on a great bed and sometimes my mom and dad let me snuggle with them on their bed.  My sister and I compete sometimes for the bed and my dad and mom have to put us in time out! Bummer. 

The youngest human in our house is a blast to play with.  He and I run all over the yard together and play inside too.  Sometimes he laughs so hard while playing with me, he falls down and I get to lick his face all over.  I love my human boy. 

As far as I am concerned, I have the best house and family in the world.  I sure am a happy and well fed dog.
