Awwwe f@$k, I hate this

Unfortunately, Kaya lost the battle last night.
This dog………

I’m truly blessed to have experienced such a sweet and special dog. One of a kind. My problem child honestly!
This dog has been in ER more than any dog I’ve known! Just like her daddy!!! Haha
Kaya went into the ER within a few days of us having her due to another dogs discrepancy of her being there and getting attention. She received several stitches and stayed the night in the hospital.
She has been charged and nearly trampled by a moose, caught in a wolf trap, bit by a rattlesnake in the nose, sprayed by a skunk,…..

But let’s talk about the fact that she was the most beautiful creature on the planet! Seriously, hands down.

Her love. Her drive to work, play, and love. She was truly a sweetheart.

She was an inspiration to me. Not only to love, but go that extra step. Go that extra ridge. Go into the horrible death zone of steep slopes and complete dead fallen tree misery just in hopes of finding an antler to bond with her daddy.

Kaya was the one that taught me “we can’t keep all the antlers! We need to do something with these!”
So we decided to make other dogs happy and create our elk antler dog chew side gig.

She was one of the greats. A true legend. Like some legends, gone too early…………..she was only 8

I want to thank everyone so dearly who donated to her medical fund. Seriously, I know people love dogs, but yall did that for me! I seriously am blown away and truly grateful for the love I feel! Like f**k!!! I’ve been crying just because you people care. You are my family and I f**king love all of you!!

On Nov 13th, Kaya was taken to the emergency room at our local veterinary hospital in Big Sky, Montana. She was experiencing loss of balance and consciousness. Upon her arrival, she had a heart rate of 220bpm and high white blood cell count. She was stabilized, had tests performed, and kept there all day. She came home that night heavily sedated to keep her heart rate low but by morning she had to be rushed into the emergency room again. They performed further tests, ultrasounds, bloodwork, and X-rays. The vet was unable to find anything definitive. She was given 2 forms of sedatives, a medication to contract her heart, and several antibiotics to treat for possible infections. She’s stable at the moment but not in the clear just yet. She has some mammary tumors on her left side, and the vet said she has some abnormally thick heart walls. These could or could not be related. We have exhausted all abilities of our local veterinary clinic and will have to go elsewhere for further testing and diagnosis. Our next step is either a cardiologist and/or cancer specialist. Kaya is only 8 years old and one of the most amazing dogs I’ve ever seen, met, or had. The bills are piling up already and I can’t lose this precious girl. I need help! Even if it’s something small, anything helps. I love and appreciate our friends, family, and shed hunting community for helping Kaya get well so she can get back finding those antlers!
