I am so lucky to have kept in contact with most of the pups from Kenai’s 2/2015 litter.
Here’s a follow up what’s happened with all the puppies.
Inka:
Inka was the only bi-color pup in the litter. She was chosen and loved immediately by her owners.

Inka Day 8



Inka – 5 months
Inka’s humans, Kat and Tom, have this to say: “Inka has added so much adventure to our lives! She can play just about all day long and is up to do anything we are doing. We joke that she loves everything in life TOO much. She is overall just a happy dog and is absolutely fearless. The first time we brought her near water, we walked out to the end of the dock and she belly flopped right in! We can’t remember what life was like before we had her.”
This puppy looks like she truly is ready for adventure any time of the night or day, not unlike Kenai! _SF

Rocco has been growing like crazy and loving life on acres and acres in Pepperell, MA.



Rocco – 5 months
Rocco’s mom tells us that Rocco is loving life on their acres in Pepperell. His 6 month visit to the vet clocked him in at 70 pounds already!
This puppy looks like he means business. I can not get over how dark his eyes are and how handsome his face is. _SF
Angus is getting the most out of his puppy-hood living on the Cape for the summer.



Angus – 5 months
From Angus’ mom, Colleen: “He has become Liam’s best friend and has to be with him all the time. Tom used to have this little mutt when I met him and Tom took him everywhere. She used to go to work with him everyday and when she got hit, Tom was devastated. It’s been 13 years and Angus has now filled that void. For me, I’m just so thrilled to have another animal to love. He’s even put a little spring in the step of a very old and tired dog. Everywhere we take him people stop us and comment how beautiful he is. He is now 55 lbs and is taller then Rex! I can’t imagine how big he will be when he’s full grown.”
Lucky dog to grow up with an adventurous human boy. _SF
Gemini has a full life with lots of human and dog family.




Gemini’s mom, Tricia, tells me: “It’s been an amazing 3 months with Gemini! He’s grown so much! He’s really bonded with us and has found his place in our family/pack. When he first came home, he would sleep in the kitchen or hallway, on the cool tiles. Now on really hot days he does that, but if the family is in the family room, he’ll sleep on the floor by the couch. He and Koda love being outside in our yard, digging for bones or seeing just how many burrs can stick to his coat…he’s a magnet for them. 🙂
Marley, our 10 yr old lab, is their elder statesman and keeps them in line. We go walking at Great Brook Farm and he does very well on leash and when greeting other people. We’re working on his manners with other dogs (he barks….loudly at them).
He’s just a happy-go-lucky dog. and we love his sweet, smart, playful disposition”
Gemini was the last pup with me – and I am still completely in love with him. His fur is thick and long, just like Kenai’s. _SF
Cooper has the best family ever. When little Cooper needed surgery, his family stayed beside him and made sure that this pup will have every opportunity to have a long and active life.



Cooper 5 months
This from Cooper’s dad, Bill: “Cooper is doing very well. He is still on a hepatic diet and medication, Rich and I are cautiously optimistic. He’s a very happy puppy who loves to play with all his toys but very much likes to play ball, hours and hours at a time. He has a kind gentle soul and is great with everyone he encounters, may it be others dogs, cats or children. Rich and I continue to work opposite schedules so he always has one of us around. The best part of my day is when I come home and he runs to see me- the unconditional love is amazing. We both love him so much and couldn’t imagine life without him.”
Look at this pup’s ears – I just love them. But his snout is what gets me. Something about it just makes me so happy. I miss this little (not so little anymore) guy. _SF
Kaia lives with her family on Cape Cod. It’s an active life with 3+ kids and summertime.


This from Kaia’s mom, Molly: “Kaia is doing great!! We are absolutely in love with her! She too, like Kenai, is obsessed with her ball! And loves loves playing in the hose water, she would do that for hours probably :)”
Lucky dog – playing in the hose all summer and gets to kiss cute babies! _SF
Everyone is asking me – “Will Kenai have another litter this winter?”
Honestly, if you had asked me in the thick of it all, while I had 6 puppies running, eating, and (well, you know) around my house, (remember the long, cold winter we had – no basement for these pups!) – I would have said “No more!” It is an all-consuming 24/7 job which made it hard to get other work done.
But now, I look back and think how much I really fell in love with these pups, and about the nice people I’ve met. I think about how I know that these pups have good homes with people who love them very much.
So – the answer is not a quick “no” anymore….. The answer is “Probably yes”
I’ll keep you posted.
