Marty - April 2022 - Dog of the Month

Congratulations to Marty, our April 2022 Dog of the Month!

Like many furry friends these days, Marty joined his human family in April 2020, just after the Coronavirus pandemic took hold. He is an Alaskan Klee Kai, from Washington State. Although Klee Kai is an officially registered dog breed, it is a pretty recently registered one (a mix of Siberian Husky and Schipperke), so his mom tells everyone who asks that he is a mini-husky. He attracts a lot of attention on walks because he looks just like a little fox. Luckily, Marty loves attention. He thinks he is "a people" - and loves pets and attention from everyone. He has the lungs of a husky though - he howls and sings and barks and whines and talks all day long, as his buddies at No Bonz will attest. He likes to sing along to songs on the radio and squeals when he is excited. Marty loves to play with other dogs, and always gives 100% - as such, daycare days are his favorite. When his mom tells him in the morning that they are going to play with the doggies, his bushy tail starts wagging like crazy. It doesn't hurt that he also loves to go for drives in the car. Daycare = attention from humans + drive in the car + dogs to play with, so it's truly his dream. He has traveled all over the country in his short life - his favorite destinations have been Sonoma, CA, and Montana. His least favorite destination was Maryland, where he got in a fight with a snake who hurt Marty's eye - but you should have seen the snake when Marty got through with him :)

We love having Marty with us at No Bonz!
