The Workout

So, as I mentioned on my Aloha welcome page on this blog, I would post activities and fun from my First Officer, Kona Kai Waikoloa (Our Chocolate Lab). Well, as many of you know, Kona Kai luvs the water; she luvs to swim and jump, and most of all, she luvs her tennis ball.

Here she is at Donner Lake diving out for one of her balls.


So, this past weekend Kona Kai anxiously awaited each day with the treat of swimming and jumping in the pool. She has totally free access to the pool, but will not go in at all unless she is given her special command. A secret to everyone, Kona won't even venture into the pool if you throw her ball in or if you're swimming in the pool with her ball. But once she hears her command, she off and running…and jumping.



Here's a video piece on You Tube that I put together with her jumping this past weekend. Titled, The Workout, it depicts Kona's training and workout, while supervised by her training coach, Sharkey. Just click on the link below and enjoy.

Yes, she luvs her ball, doesn't she? Here's a couple of other shots of our keen eyed shortstop.


A funny thing though is that she's not a bird or cat chaser, but is very addicted to chasing lizards, I guess, because they're more challenging.
