Kai (formerly known as John) is a pittie who was rescued in early May from Devore shelter in San Bernardino, CA.  He was found as a stray and is under a year old.  Kai was so terrified at the shelter.  He wouldn’t let anyone near him.  This resulted in him being put on the URGENT (euthanasia) RESCUE ONLY list within 3 days of being there.  Essentially immediately after his shelter hold (72 hours) was up.  I was able to get him 2 extensions!

Something in him touched my soul so I started networking him on social media.  He had 100s of people rooting for him.  I reached out to dozens of rescues.  But, as many of you know, there is a MAJOR crisis in the shelter/rescue community.  People are dumping their dogs left and right and there are not enough adoptions or fosters.  Plus, breeding is still a problem.  I finally had a rescue agree to take him (Miko’s Rescue Mission) with another Rescue’s help.  He is SAFE!  
While he does have his necessities now, he does have reoccurring costs, just like any pet does!  Luckily, he is currently with a wonderful “foster” who is an in-home boarding.  We were looking for a place for Kai and found an airbnb allowing dogs…and just so happens she is a retired service dog trainer!!  Kai has been doing wonderful with his foster dog siblings AND cat siblings.

Keeping him here does cost $200 every week…and that is discounted.  This is a lot for Miko’s to keep up with.

PLEASE donate to Kai’s care!  

He has also had NO inquiries for foster to adopt.  If he leaves a paw print on your heart, please consider adopting him.

This is just the beginning to his new life!

Kai guy is doing super well with his current (paid) foster.  
In order to keep him there until he gets adoption interest, we need to continue raising funds.

He still needs a full vet check as well.

If you’d like to inquire about adoption, email hello@mikosrescuemission.org

Kai was neutered about a week ago and is doing great!  

He has been in an "in-home boarding" foster in California since his neuter.  He is so so so happy and seems to be getting along great with their big and little dog, plus the cats (he shows little interest).

Kai continues to make new friends and make progress!

He does still need a full vet check with bloodwork and exam.  Stay tuned for that and PLEASE donate towards his care!!!

Kai is doing really well but he still needs a foster home/foster-to-adopt.  

What we (Miko's Rescue Mission) do know:

👩🏻🐶 People and medium/large dog friendly…unsure about small dogs but possibly with the right introduction.
🔢Probably 6-9 months old.
🚽Still working on potty training.
🚭He seems to be scared of smoke.
🧀He loves cheese
🤓Smarty pants
⚡️Very high energy!!

He is currently with his rescue but they are not able to provide the 1:1 time he needs to thrive!! Plus, he still needs to have a FULL vet check-up, bloodwork, and to be neutered. It would be best for him to be in a foster home for a little while to learn more and have a place to heal once he is neutered.  

Please donate to Kai’s care if you can. Rescue is all run on donations and the dogs depend on them!
