Happy 2nd Birthday, Kiska!

How oh how is Miss Kiska two already? It feels like yesterday that we were giving her bath after bath to remove the fleas from her. I still remember my stomach churning when I saw the massive amount of them by her eyes.

I never thought this little fluff nugget would become my service dog. She amazes me every day with her skills. Between gluten detection and blood pressure alerts, she helps me in numerous ways.

So, let’s take a look back at some puppy pictures! You can never go wrong there, right?

---

The first picture I got with this nugget. I fell in love with her instantly. I think a part of me always knew I wasn’t going to let her go.

She adored this Kong toy, but mostly used it as a headrest.

She was seriously one of the cutest nappers, ever.

Always with the blep!

I worked in a dog-friendly office, so she got to go to work with me. Hard to believe she ever fit on the front seat of my car!

She didn’t do the frog pose often, but she did, I couldn’t handle the cuteness.

The best trio photo I got in Kiska’s early days.

Yes, I put her in pajamas. What’s cuter than a puppy in pajamas?

Her favorite place to sleep was in the coffee table.

Sometimes, she forgot to climb all the way in the coffee table though.

She didn’t always nap in the most comfortable positions.

But she did always choose the most comfortable places. My pillow was her favorite place to sleep at night.

Anyone else obsessed with puppy paws?!

She definitely had quite the sass from day one.

Mauja and Atka warmed up to her fairly quickly!

She was always grumpy post-bath. But come on, how cute?

And she gravitated toward the warmest areas when she was little.

Happy 2nd birthday, Kiska!
