Thanks so much for the update on Kota, it brought happy tears to my eyes! You are definitely right, everyday and every second is a true blessing, enjoy it to the absolute fullest and let him live life hard, happy, and on his terms....And I couldn't agree with you more, I DO hope Kota leaves this earth as a super old man, who I KNOW will live a fabulous life right up till the very end, and NOT from the "ugly c".........So very happy for you and Kota !!!!!

Continue to give us updates on your sweet guy!

Love, 

Bonnie & Angel Polly

Sooooo happy for you and Kota!

I try to keep my heart free of hate- but I hate cancer, and melanoma is especially evil.  I hope Kota sets a record for the oldest living dog!

No matter what happens down the road you are doing it right- appreciate everything you have and treasure every moment!

So it's time to rally the all prayers again! Saturday is his 2 month chest xray again. I feel like I'm holding my breath until Saturday afternoon! He's doing well and still being his Kota self. And we're excited to announce he's going to be a big brother:) So he needs to stick around to protect his little brother or sister to be!:)

Hello Kota's pack!  well done up to now.  I know perfectly well what you are feeling about the chest x-ray:  Johnnie's appointment was last Tuesday and I didn't sleep the night before.  

Good luck and keep us posted!

He's STILL in the clear! wahooooooooooooooo! All looks well except for some arthritis in his lower back, so he has to watch his jumping:) Guess we'll just throw the ball directly into his mouth. ahha. He goes for a check up in 1 month, another xray in 2, and his vaccine booster shot in 3. I asked the dr if it ever comes to the time where they say he's "good and in remission" He said usually if all is still good at a 6 month mark the prognosis is very good. Alright one month to go!! Thanks for all the JUJU!!
