KKBN Pet Of The Week (01/31/12)

A Big KKBN Congrats to Kakao..our KKBN Pet Of The Week! Check out the story behind our winner!

Kakao is a 6 year old Dutch Sheppard who is truly the best dog-friend ever! Not only is she well trained and responsive to voice commands, she is the best companion on long day hikes to the top of Sierra mountain peaks (as pictured on top of the Dardanelle’s in July, 2011). With her doggie-pack on her back, she abounds with excitement at every opportunity to hit the track!

She is obsessed with tennis balls. There isn’t a place she goes without one in her mouth, hoping to awe some sucker into playing fetch. She will run miles and leap off rocks, never tiring to fetch her catch (such as she is pictured here at Cherry Lake in June, 2011.)

Despite she has four legs, she can swim like a fish. If there’s water, combined with a stick, she will be happy for hours. She is one dog that keeps me from being lazy and continues to love me like crazy!

Kakao is certainly one-of-a-kind and in my mind, the best dog-friend one can find!

KKBN Goodie Award Winner (01/25/12)

Karen Moore is my classroom aide and is more like my team teacher. She always goes above and beyond in her job. Since I have taken a leave from work she has stepped up and been a tremendous help to the substitute teachers who have come in. She not only performs her job, but she puts in her own time to grade papers or stay late to talk to teachers. Without her things would be falling apart in the classroom right now. She is a wonderful person and is truly dedicated to a job she loves. I appreciate her very much!

KKBN Pet of The Week (01/24/12)

This is Trey, he is a 25plus quarter horse gelding with a remarkable story.
Trey was a show horse and won many ribbons and such but when he no longer could show he was sold and passed around from owner to owner. He was sent to winton from San Diego by a seller to a lady who bought him sight unseen for a lesson horse. He did not work out for her so she decided to give him away. I was still recovering from a bad riding accident and I was drawn to Treys story of rejection so I went to meet him and took him home. Through the friendship of this horse I was able to overcome my fears of riding and together we have helped heal each other. Come to find out later after many rides that he was a halter horse in shows and was never ridden. I think its a true test of faith and trust that he has kept me safe on our journeys together and I could not ask for a better friend. I hope you agree that he truely is a “miracle” sent to me. And I would like him to be considered for amazing friend of the week!!!!
Sincerely,
Wanda Wolski and Trey
