Meet Kona

“Having Kona at the house is so comforting. I can isolate and sometimes I don’t like people. She gives me a reason to come out of hiding, and no matter how down I am, she always picks me up. Even when I don’t know how to bond with people, I can always bond with Kona. And she’s teaching me how to be responsible, because we all take care of her together. Together makes responsibility so much easier to learn.”

“Kona was ten weeks old when she came to Riverbank House as a rescue puppy. She teaches me to enjoy the now, the present, and to experience every minute for what it is. She’s also teaching me patience, because she can be a little rascal (so she fits right in). She’s a shoe nibbler….my feet sweat and I think she’s going for the salt residue on the shoe. And she’s a snuggler. No matter what, Kona always lightens the mood, because she’s another life worth caring about.”
