Well here we are already getting towards the end of September and heading into October. We already filled up with our Doggy bed and breakfast for the Christmas Holidays, but the good news is that we are almost completed with our luxury kennels. Which means as of December 1st that opens 9 more large dog area spots, and 6 small dog spots. Also, I will be taking appointments now through December 1st for Christmas Pet photography. Look for some posting soon of our current Christmas doggies. I will be doing a Christmas special. $75 for your doggy for current staying guests, $100 for regular guests but not staying, and $125 for guests that have not ever booked with us before. Why the difference in pricing. Well, doggies that are currently boarding are already here and easy to work with, and I can take my time getting the best photo. $100 for previous guests, is because we are already familiar with the doggy and would keep them for the day (4-8) hours, to take our time to get a good shot...just in case dress up isn't their thing. $125 for new guests, as we would include a 2 night stay so that we can get to know your pet and get the best shot possible. Doggies are easier to work with when owners are not around.

What does this include outside of the stay you ask?

It includes:

1-8x10

2-5x7s

and a disc with 10 best shot edited photos for your personal use.

I am willing to come to you as well and do a session with doggy and family anywhere on the island for the following prices:

Previous guests: $125
All others: $150

Includes:
1-8x10
2-5x7's, or 3-4x6
and a disc with 10 best shots, edited photos for your personal use.
Additional location add $50
With two locations I will give a disc with 20 best shots, edited for your personal use.

All photos will also be available on my website for additional purchases and merchandise options.

Please email me for more information, questions and scheduling.

Mahalo for visiting. Please pass on the word.

February 2011

Figured I would go back to posting entries on the Blog.
February is a quieter for us, but pick back up in March. So if you are looking for doggy care for March, now is the time to call for reservations.
Right now we have a few doggy guests, Hoku, Maile, Tanner, and Flo Jo. They get a long real weather. We are looking forward to the completion of the new kennels soon. Thank goodness. This has been a strange winter for us.
Keep checking back for updates.

Change of sites

Aloha everyone,

We will be using Facebook more for updates, photos, videos and postings. It is so much easier to upload and journal on regarding all our doggy guests. It helps us a lot as it takes a bit of time to upload videos and photos on Blog spot. We will keep blogspot, just in case, and write periodically.

Please add us to your friend list on Facebook. We are under "Waggin tails at Maui Kennels".

I just created a new video of our December guests. The link is on Facebook. Look for the You Tube link. You can also search the video on You Tube as Waggin Tails at Maui Kennels 3.

I hope this makes it easier for you.

Aloha

Aloha all. It has been a while since I have been able to post, due to severe computer issues. But, now have a new computer and the right one this time. I got an IMac. Something I should have gotten a while ago, being I do videos and photography.

Anyhoo, I am working on a video to catch up on some missed photos that I wasn't able to post and will be updating soon more recent photos and current guests.

As you can imagine, we are fully booked over the Christmas Holidays. We currently have 11 guests. Choooo weee oooo weee oooo! and the total will be 12 at 830pm tonight.

We currently have Chewy and Roger, who are from the same household and are cuddly poodles. Well Roger is a beautiful black standard poodle, and Chewy is a small rusty colored poodle. They are a lot of fun. Roger is very terrified of thunder and lightning. I think I jinks him, as on their first night we had thunder and lightning. So, we let them have a special place inside for a bit to let them feels secure.

We also have Kaya, who is a sweet Doberman. But she has a hurt leg, and has to have it slinged up when she goes out. We limit her play with others so that she doesn't over do it and hurt herself more. But, she enjoys watching the other and giving kissed through the fence.

Then there is Patches and Jake. They are also from the same house. They are a lot of fun, and very sweet. Patches was a little shy at first, but by the end of the day and giving her a few treats...she warmed up to us pretty good. They love to watch the TV.

Let's see, who did I forget...oh yes Cassidy. She is a return guest, and is on her way up. She is a beautiful sweet Basset Hound. Can't wait to see her again. Kona is also back. If you remember, Kona is the champion air swimmer. Click on the video to the right to see Kona in action. Kona is very happy as we have another fella here that has turned out to be a perfect playmate...and his name is Boddah. He is also a Maltese. They almost look like twins, especially now since they have been play hard together and getting dirty. Boddah came with his two buddies, Birdie and and Bogie. Birdie is a very beautiful Pointer, and Bogie is a Handsome Black Lab. They definitely are enjoying the play area and running around. Bogie has decided that the water trough is his swimming pool. Sometimes even Boddah will jump in the water trough and sit in there. Silly dogs!

I will continue more after Maka comes to stay. Barry is picking Maka up tonight. So, I am hoping to follow up with some fun photos tomorrow.

Hope everyone is enjoying their holiday vacations.

Aloha

..OH yes, I also wanted to add that I will start posting on Facebook as well. So please visit us on Facebook under Waggin Tails on Maui.

Aloha

Aloha all! Hope everyone is surviving the Christmas rushes and enjoy your holiday season.

I wanted to just put a note in and again apologize for not being able to keep updated with the photos and on goings with our Doggy guests. I was hoping that I was able to solve the issues with my desktop, and it just doesn't seem be working out.

But our doggy guests are having a great time. Right now we have Buddy back, and Chloe is still here for a couple more weeks. We also have Grizzly, Kona, Bella and Pepito. Tomorrow, Palu is coming back to join the crew. Kona has found some comfort in sitting in the water trough. I put the turtle pool in the play area, and he'll check it out now and then, but he likes the water tough...silly boy. Grizzly and Buddy get along very well. It's nice to see Grizzly playing. He also hangs out with Chloe too. Buddy loves to chase Chloe around too, and she really enjoys herself too. Pepito just likes to sit back and watch everyone else chase each other around. Him and Bella are here for a few more days. Pepito in serious need of a bath. He is so not white anymore. Kona is definitely not white anymore. I think Bella would be happy if her sweetheart, "Bear" was here too. But, she is enjoying relaxing and taking it easy.

As soon as I am able I will get some more photos up. But all you doggy parents who are away right now, don't worry cuz we are having fun with all of your pets...and I know they are having a blast as well.

Aloha!

Catching up

Aloha Everyone!

Just catching up with the blog, between power outage and my desk top catching a horrible virus...has prohibited me from posting photos.

I am hoping this laptop can do the trick until I get my computer fixed or get a new one....

Anyhoo........

Maile and Hula have since left and we miss them. They were very fun girls, well behaved and played very well. Kolohe has also left, but we know we will see him again soon.Chloe was happy to meet Pepito. But, she also got to play with a puppy, named "Puppy", who came here for Doggy day care. The puppy definitely gave her some excersize.

We also have a couple very fun and very cool dogs, Grizzly and Kona. Grizzly will be here for a while. Kona is a white lab who just moved here from Georgia. He loves loves loves to play ball...or play anything. Him and Grizzly are starting to hang out together. They both have mellow personalities. Chloe and Pepito just cruise around with them, when we are not playing ball or chase. Bella, has some sore hips...so she loves her special place under the tree to lay in the sun and relax. We want to make sure the others don't cause her any discomfort as she likes to try and play.
