Kohala

My story

Meet Kohala! 8-year-old Kohala was entrusted to our care through the Final Wish Program after her mom was transferred to a hospice facility for her final days. Kohala and her mom were inseparable for the past 8 years. As her mom's condition declined in recent months, Kohala stayed faithfully by her side. Just a few days after becoming a Frosted Face, Kohala went on a two-week Frosted Fling, where she got lots of love and attention in the comfort of a home. Here's what we learned about Kohala from her Fling Mom: "Kohala is a very sweet and loving girl. And smart, too - she knows how to sit and shake on command. Kohala loves to play with her ball and go for walks. Kohala is going through a huge adjustment after losing her mom, and she understandably craves attention and reassurance. For now, she would likely do best in a home where someone is around most of the time. Kohala was accustomed to using potty pads during her mom's illness, but in two weeks, she made great progress with potty training and is learning to go to the door to ask to go out. She has a great appetite and loves mealtime. On car rides, it seems like she was used to riding in the front seat. For Kohala's safety, I think she would benefit from a harness and seatbelt, or a crate to ensure she stays secure while traveling. This will be an adjustment for her. Kohala slept by my bed and sometimes underneath it. She has difficulty jumping up and down from the bed, I recommend lifting her on and off or using pet steps to help her get on and off safely Kohala is a truly loving dog who will make a devoted companion. She’s looking for a home where she can be with her people, where she’ll get plenty of attention. If you’re looking for a sweet and loyal dog who will adore you, Kohala is the one for you!" Sweet Kohala needs a patient family who will give her time to adjust to a new home and routines. In return, you will have her love and loyalty! Please email placement@frostedfacesfoundation.org to meet this precious girl.
