My Name is Hoku. I'm a 4-year-old Chocolate Labrador with a nose for adventure and a tail that won't stop wagging. When my family planned an off-island trip without me, they made sure I'd have my own fun by arranging a meet n' greet at Da Dog Wash. The staff member who came to see me was full of questions for my mom—do I play well with others, any special needs—but it was her gentle pat and the way she let me sniff her out that won my furry heart.
A few days later, we had a playdate at my favorite place ever—the Dog Park! I romped and played with my canine buddies until I was panting, my heart happy and my legs ready to buckle from fun. Back home, I sprawled on my mat and dreamed of chasing endless tennis balls.
The big day came soon after. My toys and treats were packed, and mom explained I was headed for a 'Staycation.' Oh, the car ride! We drove out to Haiku, and the sweet, earthy smells of our island made my nose twitch and twirl in delight.
At Da Dog Wash, they had a cozy spot just for me. My mat was there, in a sunny corner that smelled just like fresh air and freedom. The property tour was a blast—goats saying 'Baah,' and a parade of new scents made my day.
Though I missed my family, the kind folks at Da Dog Wash filled my days with walks, beach trips, and I even got a bath. When mom came to pick me up, I was wagging and wearing a cool new bandana. I can't wait to come back. It really felt like a second home.
My experience as Hoku's mom, Preparing for my three-week trip was hectic, with countless details to manage. Foremost on my mind was ensuring that Hoku would be comfortable and well-cared for. Discovering Da Dog Wash and their seamless process was a relief.
They first reached out with a simple email, asking for basic details about Hoku—his name, age, breed, specific needs, and the duration of his stay. The response was swift, and we soon arranged a meet-and-greet at a location of my choice, to ensure Hoku would be a good fit for their inclusive boarding service.
The staff member from Da Dog Wash was thorough during our meeting. They observed Hoku's temperament and asked insightful questions about his habits and preferences, giving me a chance to see how Hoku interacted with them. His wagging tail and eager paw shake were all the approval I needed.
Following the successful introduction, I scheduled a playdate in the park for Hoku, which allowed me some precious time to tackle last-minute tasks. Delightfully, he returned exhausted and happy, allowing me to pack without interruption.
When the day came to drop Hoku off, the process was straightforward. The property was serene, nestled among swaying trees with the distant sounds of goats. As I settled Hoku’s belongings into a quaint cottage, a staff member took him for a leisurely walk. I took a moment to greet the goats, smiling as I watched Hoku explore his new surroundings. Leaving him there felt like leaving him with family. After giving my best friend a round of kisses, I drove away with a heart full of peace, knowing he was in loving hands.
