New Video

Okay, you should see on the right side bar a cute white face of one of our doggy guests, Reagan. There should be a little play icon on there. I have been working on this video for some time. Not just putting the photos together and editing, and music, but finding the right program that was user friendly and adaptable to many forms of media. Anyhoo, if your pet isn't in there....be patient. I have tons of photos, and will continue to make little videos to share. This is only volume one.
Hope you enjoy it. Let me know.

I will be posting again later today or first thing tomorrow. We are pretty busy. But, today Bear leaves, as does Mimi and Koa. Then tomorrow Reagan goes home as well. I have to post a picture of our two new guests, Pepples and Bamm Bamm. Two cute English Bulldogs. Too bad Gus wasn't here (our other English Bulldog guest, who loves the red chair and swinging from the little tire).

Aloha

Ocean is back

Today Ocean came to stay with us for a little over a week. Good thing, cause Chloe needed a buddy to play with. All the other guests are a little too big. Reagan is her size and they play well too, but Reagan is here for a shorter time. Reagan is already getting her lovely white coat dirty from running around and play with Chloe, but she is having a great time.

We are still full and having fun with all of our doggy guests. We also have Sasha and Titus staying with us here at Waggin Tails. They are definitely full of energy and love to run run run and chase each other. They play best along with each other.

Also, Mimi and Koa are still here. They will be with us until tomorrow. They just love the new little area that we put up. They just cruise and enjoy the shade. Every once in a while Mimi will coax Koa to play. They are good about walking on the leash so we take them on walks around the property.

Sprinkles and Buttons are still with us as well and will be here until November 1st.

And we can't forget Bear. He is my buddy. We found that his favorite place is under the tree on the run leash. He can watch everything and he likes to peak at Tiffany now and then. His sweetheart Nani has left, so he is just cruisin and relaxing.

Kolohe left yesterday. He will be back next month while his owners go to S. Korea. Todd Wong came up and trained with him and it went very well. Hopefully, Todd will get to work with him more in the future.

We should be playing poker.

I say we should be playing poker because this weekend we ended up with another full house. =0P

I am just going to call this the October class of 2009. Nani is still here with us until Sunday. She is having fun. We think she has a huge crush on "Bear". Bear visits us quite a bit from Lahaina. Good thing Bella isn't here, because Bear is her sweetheart. Nani has also been flirting with Kolohe...and so has our Lili too. I think they like Kolohe's big muscles or something. Kolohe is a first time guest. We are working with him on some training and learning to play well with others. He is a very good boy, and is eager to learn.

We have Sprinkles and Buttons back, and they are just cruisin'. Sprinkles can play well with Nani as long as Buttons isn't in the area. I think Buttons gets jealous. But that's okay, cuz Buttons just hangs out with me. She is a very good listener. Hmmm, did I forget someone....oh yes, sweet little Chloe is still here. She mostly likes to watch the others play, and hang out with us too. I think she is enjoying her time on her vacation. She definitely tries hard to escape...but we were prepared as her owner warned us ahead of time. It's okay if she tries in her kennel. She can't really dig to far on the slick cement floor, but I guess it gives her something to do for a minute or two. She does love to watch Family Guy and listen to Mozart. I can't forget to mention that we also have Mimi and Koa back. The groosome twosome. They are testing out the new play area for us. So, we have 8 guests through the weekend. They are all fun and different and keep us busy. So enjoy the photos of the "October class of 2009".

Full House

Well we had a full house this weekend. A couple return guests came to stay with us. We had Roper, who was just a little furball. We nick name him "Humperdink". You can't imagine why. =0P

We also had Limu. She was a very sweet 9 year old black lab. She tolerated Roper. It was pretty funny.

Of couse we have Chloe and Nani is still with us. I know it isn't the greatest picture of Nani, but had to post a rare moment. She is snoozing in the little house in her kennel. She was zonked out from all the playing, running around and excitement. It took several tries to get it, cause I would try and sneak up quietly to get it and she would pop an eye open.

We also have Buttons and Sprinkles back for a couple of weeks. They were pretty excited to be back. All the dogs have been curious about our new additions to Olinda. We have 21 goats that we put in the gulge area to graze. I will have to post a couple pictures later. I think they are really cool to look at and watch.

Nani

We have a new guest Nani. She is having some fun. She loves to run. Definitely full of energy. Here she is laughing at me while I am trying to take her picture.

So Nani is enjoying a lot of one on one time with us as Baxter, Taj, Kona, and Ellie have all left. But we will have many more for Nani to play with as we have Cloe, Limu, and Roper coming. I know we can't wait until they come as Nani needs four legs to chase around. Plus, she like to chase tennis balls...but, like to watch us get them. Silly girl.

Baxter was almost solo!

Taj and Kona left, as well as Mahina yesterday. Baxter really had fun hanging out with all of them. Especially Mahina. He was sweet on her. But, he had a blast chasing after Taj and Kona when they got into their running around modes. I know Baxter didn't mind it too too much as he had more one on one time with us. I found another squeaky toy in our dog toy treasures. I figured since he fell in love with my purple squeaky cow, that he would like the squeaky bone...and I was right. He actually wore me out from throwing it.

I figured I would see how he would be with our Piggy Tiffany...and they got along pretty good. She chased him a little bit, but I think they both liked that they had some company. BUT...then we got a call! Baxters dreams came true. One of our return guests from over the summer, Ellie, needed a last minute stay. She is super super cute and a perfect size and playmate for Baxter. He is so excited. Look at Ellie's cute little face. She also has the longest eye lashes I have ever seen on a dog. They remind me of the eyes on the characters from "Who ville".

4's company

Sorry everyone for the delay for a new entry on the blog. We had a day of power outage due to a fire in the forest below us. A powerline went down and not only did it cause power loss, but it caused a fire. The firefighters and helicopters did a great job, and the fire didn't make it up to the tree tops. Only a couple acres burned.

Anyhoo, the doggies have been having fun. Kona and Taj came for a four day weekend. They will be leaving today. This is their second visit, and they will be coming back for the holidays. During this visit, their owner took some friend hiking into Haleakala Crater all the way to the cabin. That is a 12 mile hike. Sheese!

We also have Mahina. She is having a blast running around and playing. She is here until tomorrow. She is a very sweet girl.

And we have Baxter. He will still be with us for a bit longer. He is going to miss everyone when they leave. He has finally broken out of his shell, and gets in on the chase. I knew he would love playing with Kona and Taj. He also loves to hang out with Mahina. But, when Kona and Taj get in chase mode, Baxter is chasing right behind.

Here is a picture of all four of them. This was the only way I could get them together, by calling them to the gate and teasing them to go out. Tee hee!
