I am the sun on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain."

In memory of two bonded brothers, Kekoa and Kainoa,

the two brightest stars in the sky tonight.

Hi folks! I’m Kainoa, and despite what my brother Kekoa says, he isn’t the only “namesake” around here. I’m one, too! My fur-angel and Kekoa’s fur-angel were brothers and pretty much inseparable. Maybe me and lil’ Kekoa will be that way someday, too, but right now mostly I’d like him to get out of my way. Seriously. Fair is fair. That guy is spending waaaaay too much time bellied up to the bar, if you know what I mean. The more he drinks, the more he grows. The more he grows, the harder he is to move. The harder he is to move, the more he is able to drink! C’mon Kekoa! Share the love!

I am now 10.5 pounds!!!

Went to the vet for the 1st shots and wormer, we are now at 6 weeks old. Foster mom had to bring reinforcements to help load all us puppies and unload at the vet. Thanks to Mary T for the extra help. Dr. Heidi says we are all very healthy and that our Dad must of been a big boy, cause our mom is kinda small. We have appointments to have our spay and neuter surgery for 5 of us on 3/19 and for the other 5 on 3/20. Then we will just wait for our new people parents and siblings to come get us. We sure are meeting lots of nice people, who most say "how do we choose, they all are so cute and perfect."

Mom has decided to hold back the milk and now mom is teaching us not to bite so hard and to play nice. We now eat dry Nurtrisource Lg puppy food 3-4 times a day and most of us are doing pretty good about going potty on the pads.

Went outside for the first time, because vet Heidi says we need to get hardened up a bit and go outside and learn to pee and poop on the grass. We all sure loved the KUDOS and praise when we go potty on the grass, we hold our heads high and get so excited.

Kainoa's weight is 5.6 lbs. That is a 3.5lb weight gain since 2/8. Kainoa is now the most verbal and loves to hear himself howl and whine, you can tell which one is him - see photo pups in pen.
