A bit of canine energy for the new year

January 7th, 2012 · No Comments · Dogs, Photographs

We’ve been seeing a lot of our Kaaawa dogs in recent days. This morning, for example, we had just said hello to Mr. Zeno when one of our favorite packs of friendly dogs approached from the rear. There was a moment of uncertainty, but then the dogs took over and all was well. –>See all [...]

A walk on the beach, and greeting the dogs

I’m betting that most of you aren’t interested in the blood pressure boost delivered by political commentary on the day before Christmas, so I’m not even going to consider going there today. Instead, here are a few goodies. First, a few pictures from our walk at dawn here in Kaaawa. Just click on the photo [...]

Bruce, the 1-year old great dane, is sweet and curious. Lani, the blond, is well mannered and doesn’t require a leash. Zen and Coral [...]

A brief moment of silence for two Kaaawa morning dogs

October 21st, 2011 · 3 Comments · Dogs, Photographs, video

It’s a sad week. We’ve lost two of our Kaaawa morning dogs. Here’s the deal. We have eight cats at home. No dog. So we’ve “adopted” many of the dogs we meet along our daily walks to the beach at dawn. Sometimes it takes a dog biscuit to make a close friend. Sometimes just a [...]

Sunday morning dogs

October 16th, 2011 · 2 Comments · Dogs, Photographs

Here come the dogs! Remember…our household doesn’t include a dog, but I have to buy Costco-size boxes of dog biscuits to keep dozens of canine friends across Kaaawa happy. Every morning is a trip to the other side, from our little world of cats into the big world of dogs. Meet Mr. Duck. Quite a [...]

It’s nice to be loved

October 9th, 2011 · 2 Comments · Dogs, video

Here’s another brief 39-second video featuring Ipo and Emma, two of our favorite Kaaawa morning dogs. On this morning, we met them on the beach. As you can see, they are very excited to meet and greet. We used to spice up their morning with a dog biscuit, but we discontinued the biscuits about two [...]
