Meet Kia, Kennel Club Registered Name Kia Keltic Kutie.  She is now 7 years old and enjoys a wonderful life with Nadine, Stuart and her new play pal Fin.

Kia came to stay with Nadine and Stuart when she was 2 years old from the SSPCA shelter in Balerno Edinburgh where she had spent a year of her very sad short life.

Nadine and Stuart instantly fell in love with her and could see past all of her problems and knew she was the dog for them.

Previously to being rescued Kia had enjured a horrific life where her owner had starved, neglected and stabbed her.  Her previous owner was eventually charged with Maltreating her but unfortunately the charges were a mere £500 fine and a 3 year ban on keeping dogs. Even after this start to life Kia is a very happy, confident dog who loves her toys, cuddles, walks and of course her food.

Kia and Nadine joined Fast 'n' Furious when she was 3 years old and nearly didn't start at all as Kia was too scared to come into the training field.  This was one of the many challenges that Kia was to overcome while she learned to tackle each part of equipment which makes an agility course, but despite the difficulty (it took 3 years for Kia to gain the courage and attempt the seesaw by her self) with each success came a little more confidence until the happy dog we all now know at Fast 'n' Furious developed.  Kia now can only be described as an agility addict who is known to go into a "depression" when the training has to be cancelled for more than a couple of weeks.

Quote From Nadine

"Kia is an absolute star and I am very proud of everything she has achieved, but to see her go to agility shows and enjoy herself is an absolute miracle.  The transformation in Kia is remarkable and in no small part due to the dedication and patience of all at Fast 'n' Furious"
