I adopted Kona as an eight week old puppy. She is my first dog and I thought raising a puppy would allow me to avoid major behavioral problems. Kona had other plans for me. Even at ten weeks old, she barked at strangers. I wanted a dog that I could take anywhere, but Kona shook when I took her in the yard.

Because Kona was too afraid of the activity on the streets, I took her into the foothills. Now, she's my trail running partner and we're becoming a team.

She has come a long way, but she still has a long way to go. I'm slowly learning how to help her get there. And as we work to make the world less scary, we take time to relax on our trails.
