Everyday Drawings

Hi, this is Jing Jing—today I came home from an early morning surf session to find this note taped on the gate. I laughed out loud. Mike knew that I could translate the cryptic message into, "Good Morning Honey, I brought Prudence for a walk." Mike totally captured our dog's wide-eyed anticipation when we utter the words, "Kaloko" (the forest we take walks in), "Walk" or "Truck". To tease her, sometimes we just make the K sound, "kuh, kuh, kuh, kuh, kuh." It drives her crazy!

Chasing Shadows

Prudence is 40 lbs of sometimes uncontrolled enthusiasm—your basic "happy puppy". When I'm walking her, it's hard not to laugh when I see her salivate at the geese crossing the road, lunging at the wild chickens in the forest or eating every single avocado that rolls her way. But the sweetest sight so far was watching her chase a butterfly's shadow. The butterfly itself sailed serenely above her head, completely unaware that part of it was the target of my hyper friend.
