Turbo, our Black Lab/Healer has arrived in Hawaii. He flew here, with his master Adam, from California - quite an experience as he had to fly in the plane's hold.. He was anxious when he arrived, but he has settled right in. Here he visits a special place for dogs -- an ancient lava rock temple called Kuilioloa Heiau - Temple of a Supernatural Dog. Legend says that the Ku, the God of War and Human Sacrifice, looked down from the heavens and saw a beautiful princess bathing right here in this pretty cove. So, in a sneaky fashion, he came to earth as a little dog and played happily with her. Then he came back as a handsome chief and asked for her hand in marriage. Luckily her father suspected Ku and saw the difficulties in this relationship. He refused. It is said, ghost dogs still play at the beach and Ku appears in clouds over the high Waianae mountains. of West Oahu.

Of course, Turbo only eats organics. His master, Adam, insists on that. Adam says we would never munch away at animal by-products and he doesn't want Turbo to eat that stuff. He also is against Turbo eating the many chemicals and preservatives found in lots of dog food. Well, Turbo looks great, so its working for him. His glossy coat didnt always look that good. As a puppy, he had mange. Years of organics and eco friendly stuff have been good for him. And no one, just no one, can play Fetch as fast and for as long as Turbo.

Organic products are hard to find, especially reasonably priced ones.Turbo likes Lamb and Rice by Nutro - as long as its mixed with something a little juicy.We're still researching the best organic juicy food. Any tips?

What does your dog like? I'd love to include a list soon of the most popular organic dog foods, so your personal tips would be great.

Turbo also likes playing with his Tugzees toy - its on sale at the moment at around $10, excellent value. And its tough. He loves tough tug ropes and, as winter is coming up, he is sending his "cousin" in California a Green Dog hoodie for Christmas.

Any Green and organic tips welcome -- please send them in. Its great to get recommendations.
