Otis (6 yrs, Boxer), Oak Harbor

Otis simply HATES dog doo and starts tippy toeing as soon as he picks up the scent of a pile ahead. It usually starts on the paved walk way to the beach, but gets worse the closer we get to kids playing with buckets and shovels in the sand. I never realized how rude people were with their dogs until I started walking Otis. It is everywhere. Otis thinks you are doing a good job, but the bags could be a bit larger for him.

Sadie (2yr, Lab mix), Oak Harbor

I love to go for walks, my dad will grab the leash and I know it is time for our walk. I keep trying to bring my baby because she needs to get out too but dad won’t let me bring her. I think it’s because he is worried when we get to the park my baby will get messy since not everyone brings bags like we do. It never fails, I start walking and before I know it, I have to go… Dad is pretty patient considering he is the one who has to pickup after me, he brings several cuz he double bags… but normally he doesn’t have to do this more than once. I wish others would do the same, then maybe dad would let me bring my baby

Zeke (6 months, Chihuahua), Langley

Although sitting on the potty, Zeke has yet to learn to use it! He does, however, know how to use the computer. He is a fledgling member of the Happy Hounds dog 4H club and a star pupil of Carol Gannaway’s K9 Potentials. His best friend and dog bed companion is a 7-year old Lab named Maggie.

Keeva (8 yrs, Shetland Sheepdog), Oak Harbor

We call her Keeva the Diva. What a special dog she is, posssessing both beauty and brains. We also call her the Pillow Princess because she must put her head on something to sleep. She definitely enriches our lives. I once heard someone say, "If you can look at a dog and not feel vicarious excitement and affection, you must be a cat!"

Bug (1.5 yrs, Chihuahua/Pug), Oak Harbor

Bug, what is there to say? A true southern gentlemen, Bug enjoys the simpler things in life. Car rides are one of his favorite things. He loves the breeze in his ears! He never tires of his squeaky ball. He has three, but he knows which one is his favorite. A smart one, no doubt, he can pick up simple tricks very quickly. We all swear he understands words. Soon he will be picking up his own poo! If you see us at Cloverdale Dog Park, be sure to say hello!

Knox (6 yrs, Golden Retriever), Oak Harbor

Knox is a 106 lb goofy Golden who absolutely loves people & children. Best known for sneaking licks of any unclad piggy toes as he slyly strolls by the couch, breathing hot breath on our legs while we eat our dinner--hoping of course, that he'll get lucky, and for his gentle, loving demeanor while being surrounded by two cats, two women, and an energetic 5-year old boy. Ahh…

 

Knox loves the outdoors & enjoys going for walks in the neighborhood. Playing catch with a soggy tennis ball, digging holes that lead under the back deck right after they are filled back in, rolling in the grass & dirt immediately after a day at the groomers, and wresting in the backyard are some things Knox can't resist.

Monte (8yrs, Collie mix), Oak Harbor

Monte is a wonderful, sweet, loving and smart dog. He's so smart that he's trained me to feed him water him and clean up after him. That means even scooping his poop! Monte enjoys going to the dog park, walking on Whidbey Island's beaches and hiking. He's an active boy that loves to be out and about meeting new people, but at the end of the day he just wants tu curl up on my lap for a snuggle.

Dan (4 months, German Shorthair Pointer),    Oak Harbor

Dan loves to run and play. He's still exploring his world, and what a big world it is for such a little puppy. Someday he'll be all grown up and able to take care of himself…but I'll still be scooping his poop.

Doogie (4 yr old, ???), Clinton

Doogie has got to be one of the most unique canines that we have had the privilege of owning. We and others have had many a guess as to how many breeds were used, Scotty, Corgi, Lab, who knows. Suffice it to say that when Doogie was created they used all the left over parts. Left overs or not he is a wonderful companion with a real zest for life

Sage (2yr old, German Shorthair Pointer),      Oak Harbor

Sage loves to run and play! Her favorite sport is fetch, she'll play all day if she can find someone to throw the ball for her. When she's not playing fetch she is snuggled up to her human.
