Funky Cold "Mahina"

Yesterday we had Mahina join us here at Waggin Tails. She is super cute and has all the attention to herself from the other two boys here, Baxter and Sato. I think Sato is sweet on her. Baxter and Sato have warmed up to each other and have short burst of chasing each other around. Baxter found the purple cow Squeaky toy, and is having fun making it squeak. Glad that he is having fun.

Mahina will probably be sad tomorrow, as tomorrow is Sato's day to go home. We will take him to meet up with his owner at the Costco in Kahului.

Baxter and Mahina will be joined by Taj and Kona on Friday morning. They should all get along very well as they seem to all have the same sweet personalities.

Baxter is here!

Baxter joined us yesterday. He is a super cute little fella. He loves to cuddle. He is pretty shy though. Sato and Baxter kinda keep to themselves. They both have similar shy personalities, but Baxter did let down the walls a little bit and try to play with Sata. I know as time goes on they will end up chasing each other around. Sato has made is favorite place on top of the play area platform. He loves to lay in the sun. Baxter likes the red cover thing that we have in the play area.

Tomorrow we will have a girl, Mahina, join Sato and Baxter. She will be here for a week. I am sure she will liven the boys up. Also, on Thursday we will have Kona and Taj back for a few days. It will be fun.

Kona and Taj have left the building.

Kona and Taj left us yesterday, but will be back over the holidays. I didn't really realize how much I missed them until this morning when we got up to feed everyone. They were fun and very well behaved dogs. We had a routine of racing to the play area and racing back to the kennels for feeding time.

Bella, Pepito, and Sato are now the 3 musketeers. Bella and Sato are having fun playing with each other and have the play area all to themselves. Pepito got another bath today, so again, he has been hanging out with us. Here he is dancing for a treat. Isn't he cute. Unfortunately, Bella and Pepito will be leaving us today...but Baxter will be here tomorrow. We may have 2 more guests this week, depending on if their shots are all up to date.

Kona's fun!

Kona has found a new love. The sprinkler. I found a cute little sprinkler at Walmart, and Kona loves to chase the spouts, as you see in this clip. She will be there forever chasing the water if I let her, but the ground gets pretty soggy after a bit. But...it is too cute.

We still have the same group for a few more days. Bella, Pepito, Kona, Taj, and Sato. Good group of dogs.

This weekend we will have a new guest, Baxster, joining us. Hurray!

We are already getting calls for Thanksgiving and Christmas, so make your reservations now.

Now it's time to say good bye....

Today we had to say goodbye to Lola and Cashmere. They were so cute and fun to play with. Unfortunately, Mimi and Koa didn't get along too well with them...so they had limited playtime with the others. We still love them though. They just have to play with each other only. But, today they go home as well. Congratulations to their owner who just had a new baby girl.

We are happy to say that Bella and Pepito have extended their stay with us until the 26th. We decided that a bath was very much needed. Pepito is a little tannish, but will be shiny white soon. Here is a clip of Bella getting her bath. We found that when you scratch her in the right spot during her bath she does the hula.

We still have Sato, Kona and Taj. Those three have bonded well and play very well together. Sato has picked up talking and singing while here. He will hold a conversation with me sometimes. Too funny. Kona and Taj are so sweet. They are quite the lovers.

We want to remind everyone who are looking to board with us, and who have boarded with us. Please let us know if there are any life changing situations. If very much affects your pets and it gives us the heads up too. Dogs are very sensitive to deaths, relocation, new births, and company staying for extended amounts of time.

Aloha

Playtime

Here is a little clip of all our doggy guest playing together. They were having so much fun...and again...I had to watch out so I didn't get tooo run over.

Party of Five!

We still have our group of Taj, Kona, Sato, Bella, and Pepito. Everyone has settled in and are all playing well together. Sato has really loosened up and has gotten to know us and trust much more. He has also warmed up to the other dogs and has been playing well with Bella. Pepito hangs out with the big dogs sometimes, but mostly cruises around with us. The weather has continued to be nice, and the dogs are really enjoying it. I can imagine how hot it is in Kihei and Lahaina. It has been warm, but I put the mist hose on to help keep the dogs cool. They especially like sunset time as it cools down. They get their last "running" around in, before they head in to settle down to Family Guy.

Mr. Sato is here

Sato joined us on Thursday. He is a pretty shy dog. Finally today he loosened up a little and play a big with Taj and Kona. He is warming up to us more too. He is pretty close with his owner, so he definitely misses him. But we are happy that he is starting to get more comfortable with us and the other doggy guests.

Yesterday we took Koa home. We miss him. He just loves to play with any dog, and I loved him paling around with me. We picked up his owners and took them home to Kihei.

Bella and Pepito are still here for a few more days. We noticed Bella put on a little weight coming this time. But, she is such a sweety...and of course so is Pepito. They listen very well and have such a great time here. Their owner is expecting a new baby soon. She just found out it was a boy. So, we can tell that Bella and Pepito knows something new is going on. But congrats to the family.

It was a beautiful day today. Lots of playtime. Barry is working hard on the second play area. We are pretty excited to get that completed.

Koa is back, as well as Bella and Pepito

We said goodbye to Buddy. We miss him, but his owner has emailed and said Buddy is happy and has never looked better. We are happy to hear that. Kanu left us as well. We were hoping to see him again this weekend, but he called in sick. Koa will miss him as they were both together at the last stay here. I think Kanu might have played a little to hard with Palu. Palu is home too. He was such a good boy.

(This picture is of Buddy, Koa, Hana, Kanu, and Hapa)

So our current guests are Kona and Taj (from the same home). Pretty dogs, one collie and a cattle healer mix. We have Bella and Pepito again...HURRAY!! Too bad Bear wasn't here. Bear and Bella are boyfriend and girlfriend. But Pepito mostly hangs out with us too. Koa is having fun with the other dogs. It is nice when everyone plays well. Today we will be getting another guest "Sato".

Bull "Dozer"

We have a fun new guest Dozer. He loves to play with everyone. He fit right in with our guests. OH also Koa is back. I think I mentioned that. So everyone has a friend to play with and every dog plays with each other. Dozer is only here for the weekend, but Koa is back for over a week while his parents are on their honeymoon.

Tomorrow Dozer and Buddy will be leaving. That will be sad. We have been very fortunate with having some fabulous doggy guests.

4-1=3

Koa went home yesterday but only for a couple days as he will be back on Friday for another 10 days. He is missed the little sweetheart. When he wasn't playing he would be my little buddy. Speaking of Buddy...right now we are down to 3 guests, Buddy, Palu, and Kanu. I think this morning was the first time that I saw them slow down a bit from playing. I think they are wearing themselves out finally. These three get along very well. They have manage to take the small orange ball and do a three way tug o war. When I try and get a photo they get distracted and let go. But, I am determined to get it. It is pretty funny.

This weekend we are booked solid. Just realized it is because it is labor day weekend. But, we have a fun group of dogs this weekend. My cousin Kathy is coming from the mainland, so we will get her in there with the doggies during playtime too. LOL, and she thought she was coming for sunshine and Mai Tai's. =0)

Here are a couple fun photos. We have Kanu who was coming up to see what I was doing. Silly boy. Then we have Buddy trying to wink for me, and Palu smiling for the camera.
