It’s nice to know that friends are rooting for us! MoMo is having some health issues as a result of the bad treatment she received in Korea but we are working on it with her Vet. Having you come along with us on our journey gave us the energy we needed to face each day with confidence and hope. MoMo and I want to thank you for your support.
Take a look at this drawing of me and MoMo. It was hard work every day, but this is what I know for sure…I learned way more from MoMo than what she learned from me. Say “Good Girl!” when she does anything good…Never say “Bad Girl!” when she doesn’t mind. Walk, walk, walk, every day and enjoy the fresh air.Ĭook healthy homemade meals to nourish her health.Īlways talk with a soft voice with a smile on my face. Take time to play on the floor with her every night and have fun! Never use force, wait until she wants to do it, even if I have to wait for a long time. Practice empathy, not sympathy (Don’t feel sorry, try to understand). If I want to earn her trust, I need to be patient. Understand that those bad memories cannot be erased and forgotten. Kay: Here are the things I learned from MoMo: It’s fun to run and catch balls in the park with other dogs. Toys are fun to play with, even though the squeaky noise is scary. It’s ok to come into the kitchen to eat dinner, I’m a member of the family. When someone touches my head, it doesn’t mean they’re going to hurt me. Sleeping on a soft blanket feels better than sleeping on a cold cement floor.
Going up the stairs is not as scary as I thought. Going pee on the grass is an ok thing to do. MoMo: Here are the things I learned from Mom Kay. Let me share with you the things MoMo and I learned from each other. The biggest reward is seeing a dog with no confidence in herself into a sweet and happy dog who found a way to trust human beings and regain hope in life. To get to the point, enigma applies to utterance or behavior that is very difficult to interpret.īeing with MoMo for the past year has definitely made me into a more compassionate and understanding human being. Some common synonyms of enigma are mystery, problem, puzzle, and riddle. People would say, “Gosh, how do you find so much patience in working with her?” MoMo was an enigma to me, so I looked deeply behind her actions and reactions which all seemed to start from her FEAR of things in life. I learned to take small, itty-bitty steps in everything we did. Not knowing any specifics about her history made it difficult for me to train and acclimate MoMo to her new life in the U.S. MoMo after arriving from Korea MoMo now MoMo is an enigma. The minute I laid my eyes on her, I felt such compassion for this dog that I promised to give her a life filled with love and care that will make up for the miserable life she lived on the streets of Korea and enslaved in the Korean Dog Meat Market. I remember seeing this shaggy dog, rescued from the Korean Dog Meat Market, traveled for 18 hours on the plane, scared and shivering refusing to come out of her crate. How time flies! It’s been 1 year + 2 months since MoMo arrived from Korea.
