Keys Dogs - Part 2

After the success of finding dog friendly places during the first couple of days in the Florida Keys, I was feeling pretty good about my decision to pursue pictures of dogs we met in the Keys. However, as the week went on, we found we were leaving the condo complex less and less, which meant fewer dog pictures. Toward the end of the week we did make it down to one of our favorite places, The Lorelei, in Islamorada. There were lots of local Keys dogs hanging out with their owners.

There were dogs in boats.

I had to throw that last picture in there, because that's what the Florida Keys are all about - sunsets.

Keys Dogs - Part I

While you were all on the virtual vacation last week with us, we were off soaking up some real sunshine in the Florida Keys. Since we've gone to the same place a number of times before, I decided to focus my photography on dogs we met in the Keys. It started off pretty good. We went to the Pilot House in Key Largo for Happy Hour and ran into these two little guys.

It's nice to see so many pet friendly places

 We headed down to the World Wide Sportsman one morning and was surprised to see this Doggy Cart. I've never, ever seen anything like this. Have you?


I have more Keys Dogs pictures for you later this week.

While we were off in the Keys, Kendall was hanging out with her buddies Jen and Buffy. Kendall had a great time, just as if she were on vacation herself. We're lucky that we have someone who will watch Kendall in her home when we travel. Usually we take Kendall with us, but I don't want her to fly. What do you do with your dogs when you travel?

Kendall's on vacation

Kendall went to stay with one of my co-workers and his dog, Tucker, a Samoyed. Tucker's stayed at our house before, and she and Kendall get along great. We miss her, but I hear she's having fun and charming my co-worker's neighbors. Meanwhile, we're away in Central Oregon staying at a place that doesn't allow pets. Here's a picture I received last night. Look like Kendall's making herself at home.



When we headed out on a bike ride after dinner last night we ran into a lady with four Cavaliers - 3 on lead and one following behind. She had three Blenheims and a Ruby. The one that was following behind had found a dead chimpmunk (or whatever you call them here.) It would not leave it. Sounds familiar. Then, today, out on our bike ride, we ran into a family with their Blenheim Cavalier in a basket on the front of the guy's bike. The dog was a cutie. There are Cavaliers everywhere! I can't wait to bring Kendall here sometime. Here, as in to the resort, not to the wonderful place we are staying.
