He hadn’t spent a night away from his family since he joined them when he was little. But when his family had to leave the country for a short trip, Igor had to stay behind.

Instead of being excited about their trip, the Halvorsens were sad because they would miss Igor and he would have to move into a grey, drab kennel.

Igor’s dad, Kai, wanted Igor to feel like he was staying at a home away from home, so he began preparing a surprise for him.
