My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Kila and her friend AJ were left in an overnight drop box at an overcrowded shelter on Jan. 27th.. Kila is a little lap dog and wonderful cuddler. She follows you everywhere and sleeps with you under the covers. She loves to be carried around or taken places with you. No big dogs in her home.

She came with a hand full of health issues. She has a hernia, grade 4 heart murmur, mammary tumors, luxating patella's, bad teeth. Due to her knees, she walks funny, and she has a hunched back. She is 12 years old and a whole 5 lbs and we have been trying to put weight on her for 2 months. Blood work is actually pretty good for Kila. We have scheduled surgery multiple times but had to cancel due to now having mini seizures. Kila is on a very low dose of Enalapril for her heart murmur.

Update: 5/2/24- Kila has a zest for life. We tried surgery again. She had hernia repair surgery, removed a mammary lump and did a dental and pulled some infected teeth.

Kila is a happy girl. She loves to follow you everywhere you go and if you sit, she sits right by your side. She is a master of the pretzel position when she is sleeping.

So if you have a heart for senior dogs. She is house broken but she has to potty often so someone who is home alot to let her out. She uses the doggy door at her foster home and takes herself out to potty. She isn't a huge fan of big dogs, she will pick a fight with them. Dogs 15 lbs and under she is fine with.

More about this rescue

Camp Companion is a 501c3 organization established in 2003.

Based in Rochester MN, the organization is totally driven by volunteers.

Camp Companion is dedicated to providing low-cost spay and neuter services for feral, farm and stray companion animals. The organization is funded solely by donations, fundraisers, grants, and adoption fees. All funds we receive are used for veterinary expenses and the cost of care incurred for the animals waiting for their forever homes.

Through our spay / neuter efforts, we encounter kittens and stray domestic cats that need rescue services and a forever home. We have no shelter, but rely on foster homes to care for these rescued pets. Every animal we offer for adoption is spayed or neutered.
