Moki the Warrior

Most small dogs I work with have big attitude.  If they didn't, their owners wouldn't be sending them off to the dog park.  Moki isn't shy on attitude, but with two much bigger dogs in his household, he often appears to be the quiet third wheel.  This couldn't be further from the truth however.  He is entirely the instigator of most of the mayhem around his house.  Of course if you had two much bigger older brothers covering your back, you'd probably have a little attitude you.

So I take Moki and his brothers for long leash walks.  Twice now Moki has decided to bring along a toy, because just keeping up with the big boys isn't enough work.  Now the toy Moki likes to carry is a "Kong".   And it is actually the same size of his head.  He carries it's smaller end in his mouth...for the entire walk.  Never setting it down, never resting.  This is not some light little toy.  Kongs are designed to be "chew proof" so they are made of really heavy rubber.  Moki is definitely one of the most determined, single minded dogs I have ever worked with.  He is a true warrior.
