Kaya, a peppy 14-year-old, moved into The Old Mutt Hut just before Thanksgiving. She loves taking walks through the prairie and chasing balls in our fenced-in play area. She doesn’t hear all that well, but she knows the second the dog food bag or the treat jar opens, She was loved deeply from puppyhood on, and then a dramatic medical diagnosis in her family resulted in her coming to The Old Mutt Hut…where she will continue to be loved deeply, just by different people now. She’s teaching us all many lessons about adaptability, keeping upbeat in the face of confusion and focusing mostly on the things that make you happy (which include a brisk walk, monitoring the parade of quail marching single file along the fenceline, and napping in the sunshine).
