What's with the Krazy title thing...

Our family grew last Dec 23rd, that's when we adopted an 11 month old stray dog from the LowCountry Animal Rescue center. The following day I named him Kaipo, which in Hawaiian means sweetheart. I've also read that the name means kind soul. And that certainly fits him.
Kaipo joined Toby (on the left), our 5 year old Tibetan Spaniel, and they have become very good buds.

Both of the boys have very unique personalities, so much so we could easily bore you to tears or at least to the point of screaming uncle while we talked about them.

But I just have to say a few things about Kaipo. First thing, he is a kisser. Big time. He's also a jumper. From a sitting position he can easily jump to on top of the dryer (where we keep Cassie the cat's food). At times I think he's crazy, but in a very good way. A short time after he came home with us, he & I were playing on the floor, just having a good ol' time and he kinda pinned me down and started licking my face. I tried to push him away, but it was no use. I blurted out, channeling Kaipo and giving him a voice; "You can't stop me, you can only hope to contain me!" (a line former espn'er Dan Patrick used to proclaim during highlights) and Kaipo's soon to be famous declaration: "I'm Krazy! Krazy with a K!"
