RIP: Ms. Maka, morning dog

August 28th, 2010 · 3 Comments · Dogs, Kaaawa

It was terrible news on this Saturday morning. Ms. Maka didn’t run out to greet us with the other dogs in her household this morning. Then one of her people came out and, sadly, announced that she was hit by a car and killed early this morning in front of the house. It’s very sad. [...]

Summer’s dogs

August 2nd, 2010 · No Comments · Dogs, Kaaawa, Photographs

[Oops! As originally posted, clicking the photo got you back to...the photo. It's now fixed to properly bring up the day's gallery of dogs!] We live with eight cats. There are no dogs in our household. But we’ve know dozens of friendly dogs all across Kaaawa that we meet and greet on our morning walk [...]

A puppy, a few dogs, and several other critters

July 19th, 2010 · 1 Comment · Dogs, Photographs

A newly adopted puppy is my excuse for going to the dogs this morning. No, we didn’t adopt her. She’s joined a household that’s a regular part of our morning walk. Ms. Ipo becomes dog #5 and seems to be fitting in quite well. Dogs apparently adapt much quicker to a new arrival than cats, [...]

This is Ms. Emma. She’s one of our regular Kaaawa morning dogs. These are the dogs we see on our daily walks down along the beach to the other end of Kaaawa each morning at dawn. Of course, with a bag of dog biscuits at the ready, it’s not hard to get to be good [...]

Starting the summer with two favorite dogs

June 21st, 2010 · 4 Comments · Dogs, video

With all the heat generated in recent days by comments about the Star-Advertiser (a bit out of hand, perhaps, on the comments?), it’s hard to believe summer is just beginning. Seriously, folks, let’s try to get comments back to the substantive, with less of the venting. And I’ll start the day with this light look [...]

A few more Kaaawa dogs

June 2nd, 2010 · 2 Comments · Dogs, Photographs

There is, it seems, no treat as rewarding as chasing a ball. Or so Ms. Inu tells us. When she visits the beach in the early morning, she is totally focused on that ball. We’ve tried offering dog biscuits. Forget it. Anyway, she’s part of the last batch of catch-up photos. Just click on her [...]

Catching up with our Kaaawa morning dogs

May 27th, 2010 · 1 Comment · Dogs, Photographs

I’ve been neglecting the dogs again. Well, not really. But I’ve been neglecting their pictures. So that has left me with a backlog of photos of our morning friends. I’ll try to catch up over the next several days. Here’s the first installment, featuring Mr. Boogie in the lead role. Click on this photo for [...]
