Yes, our Kaaawa morning dogs are definitely overdue! I was surprised to see that it’s been almost a month since the last gallery of dogs was posted.

So here’s the solution to that problem–More dogs!

This is Ms. Hina. She’s one of those sentinels along the route of our morning walks. She can somehow see us coming from down the street and around the corner, and starts barking right away, apparently worried that a day might come where we would walk right past her house without offering her a dog biscuit. It hasn’t happened yet, but just in case, she keeps barking. We’re told that it’s a “special” bark. Could be.

She then alerts other dogs farther along that same little back road–Kala, Yeats, Hoku, and then, down at the end, Mr. Maka. The bag of dog treats is substantially lighter after we escape at the other end of the block.
