Episode 10 of the Snorts, Slobber & K9 Adventures Podcast and is all about @tonkas_journey a truly adorable and amazing adventure dog.
Tonka had a rough start to life. He was born with bilateral elbow luxation, which means he was unable to use his front legs. He was born to an inexperienced backyard breeder who couldn’t afford to pay for his medical needs. Fortunately, that breeder was compassionate enough to surrender him to a rescue so he could get the care he needed.
After several surgeries and lots of physical therapy, Tonka landed with Naja Mueller and is not only living his best life, he has become an adventure dog extraordinaire. Yes, he still has some mobility issues, but Tonka doesn't let that slow him down. For those who think special needs dogs can’t adventure, well, you haven’t met Tonka. He rides ATVs, he swims, he uses a wagon to explore trails, and he makes everyone who meets him smile.
One of Tonka’s favorite adventure spots is the Pattaconk Reservoir Loop Trail in CT, and Naja gives some great insight into why this is a trail you may want to check out.
