HawaiiPetPhotos Celebrates Mr. September

Friday, September 3rd, 2010

“Mr. September” for the Hawaiian Humane Society Calendar is Kyle. Oahu’s own, Deb McGuire, proudly snapped the photo that was chosen by the Humane Society Calendar Committee.

Kyle is a rescue kitty who proudly accompanies his Mother to many local pet events in his cat stroller.  He lives in Honolulu with his adopted brothers and sisters.

Kyle’s family is very proud.  The honor is absolutely well deserved, not just because Kyle is beautiful, but because of the countless hours that his Mother dedicates to the Hawaiian Humane Society Cat House.  She is there every day.  She cuddles, feeds, cleans poop and does her best to find homes for all the homeless felines.  She has such a huge heart.

Deb McGuire and HawaiiPetPhotos.com congratulate Kyle and his family.  September is indeed a special month.

Oahu Pet Photographer loves old puppy dogs

Thursday, August 19th, 2010

One of the many reasons pet parents call and book a session with me(Deb McGuire-Oahu Pet Photographer) is that their puppy dog or kitty cat is getting up there in years and they want a good photo of them. And although this Oahu Pet Photographer(me-Deb McGuire-Hawaii Pet Photos) realizes seniors can be a bit more challenging, I love it. Here’s some shots of Tiffi, a 17 year old mini dachshund .

BOOK’ER, DAN’O! Lindsay Goes to Jail!

Wednesday, July 21st, 2010

We are devastated!

For weeks, like many, we were anticipating the photos of the ridiculously foolish Lindsay Lohan being shackled and hauled away to the “Paris Hilton Celebrity Isolation Cell.”  Today, Judge Marsha Revel inhumanely denied us that satisfaction.  Tabloid journalism built this moment up, and a judge, who had no reason to be nice to the spoiled former Disney starlet, had the cameras turned off to preserve Miss Lohan’s dignity.  WHAT ABOUT US?!

Then, to add to the injury, we learned that Lindsay’s lockup will impact her upcoming projects.  UPCOMING PROJECTS?!  Who was the Hollywood genius who felt that was a brilliant move?

So, for those who have awaited the shots of Lindsay in non-fashion bracelets, Hawaiipetphotos.com offers a Chihuahua substitute.  The deal is the puppy is smarter.

Oahu Pet Photographer Does Extreme Puppy Makeover

Thursday, July 8th, 2010

Oahu Pet Photographer Deb McGuire recently hosted segment of “The Extreme Puppy Makeover” for OC-16‘s Pet Hui.

The show takes a homeless animal, gives it a complete makeover inside and out, and presents the animal in all its grandeur.  The goal is adoption.

This segment’s star is a little girl named Fluffy.  Fluffy had been seen running around a local strip mall for more than two weeks.  Finally, a concerned security guard caught the dirty little dog and took her to “Friends for Life.”  Lanny Moore contacted Ron Darby.  Ron Darby did some intracranial cognifying.  Fluffy became the perfect candidate for an Extreme Puppty Makeover!

Fluffy received her first-ever grooming session from “Tails of Hawaii.”  Wendy Mah of Sirius Puppy Training provided the mental and psychological clean-up.  Animal Care Foundation in Hawaii Kai gave Fluffy a complete check-up.  She had a fun photo session at the park with yours truly, Deb McGuire Photography…HawaiiPetPhotos.com.  Fluffy finished her day by being treated to a huge bundle of goodies from Pets Discount(the bed she received was so comfy I wanted to crawl into it myself) and lunch at the Costco foodcourt…Fluffy ate a healthy meal while we ate the Costco HotDogs.  The entire program is sponsored by Aloha Kia who provided Fluffy and the Extreme Puppy Makeover Crew with a beautiful Sonata to drive around in for the day.

Be sure to check out Fluffy’s Extreme Makeover on The Pet Hui Show(produced by Ron Darby) on OC16. If you wish to adopt Fluffy or another wonderful pet contact “Friends for Life!”Hawaii Pet Photography hosts Extreme Puppy Makeover sponsored by Tails of HawaiiOahu Pet Photographer & Friends for Life team up to help find Fluff a home!Hawaii Pet Photographer at Hawaii Pet Photos is featured in Aloha KIa Extreme Puppy Makeover

Hawaii Pet Photography Released From Purgatory!!!

Wednesday, July 7th, 2010

Three days…three days of stress and confusion caused by the Chinese invasion of our site. Hawaiipetphotos.com’s blog was hit by malware. Unfortunately, the bad code struck on the holiday weekend, and resolution was not fast. Once everyone returned to work, the clean up and restoration of our site’s credibility was restored in a few hours. Kudos to the folks at CMD, WordPress, and Google for their hardwork. We learned so much this weekend.

One of the things that was so awesome was the attention that our part-time competitors paid to our hardship. They actually helped to drive our google ratings even higher. When their identities were revealed as we attempted to clean up the mess, we were so grateful that they cared enough to follow our plight. Hawaiipetphotos was flattered actually. You know who you are in Aiea, Kailua, Honolulu and the North Shore. Who knew that your website icons would ride along with your IP addresses? Hmmm, you might want to work on that.

If we had not been hacked this weekend, this blog would have focused only on our Saturday shoot at Hickam AFB. We love the venue and this weekend’s puppy dog was absolutely a joy to photograph. We have had multiple sessions at Hickam and the venues and furry friends have all been wonderful.

REALITY: Lindsay Lohan’s going to prison… Bethenny Frankel did look like a Disco Ball at her Shower (her quote not mine)… Jillian and Ed are the latest “Bachelorette” disaster (maybe she is ready to take back Jake)… Chris, what’s up with that “we don’t care about the dog” stuff on the Jake and Vienna reunion… Tiger Woods imitated a golfer this past weekend as his divorce details leaked in gossip media.

Hawaiipetphotos.com is thrilled to be out of Purgatory.

HELLO HAWAII!!! FIREWORKS SCARE PETS!

Saturday, July 3rd, 2010

Hawaii Pet photographer Deb McGuire's own Sham-Rock finds the whole Oahu firework thing disturbing!ONE DAY!!!  One Day until the second loudest night on the Hawaii calendar.  After New Years, the 4th of July on Oahu is insane.  PETS ARE NOT FANS!

Hawaii legislators debate legal (and illegal) fireworks as the biennial celebration of noise quickly approaches.

Without jumping on an anti-firework soapbox, I remind only that our pets hear better than we, two-legged humans do…THEY DON’T LIKE THE LOUD BANGS!

So here are some helpful hints:

1.  Keep your pets indoors.  OK, I know.  This is Hawaii…

2.  Create a calming environment.  Talk to your pet.  Let them know that the pets are in charge and that you know, that they know that when the decibel level reaches its highest level, it is time for a puppy or kitty massage.

3.  If you are using blasting caps and dynamite to mark your festive fourth, PLEASE keep your pets away…Put them in your Oahu Pet Bunker.  That way when you and your human family members have been vaporized by your newly invented MOTHER OF ALL BACKYARD BOMBS, your pet will survive to mourn your passing.

OAHU PET PHOTOGRAPHY AND REALITY TV

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010

Hawaiipetphotos.com intentded to resist comment on the latest reality TV noise (Remember, we have the latest and not-so-greatest playing in the background here at Casa Del Pet Photography).  Then, last season’s Bachelor Jake Pavelka broke up with “fiancee,” Vienna.

OK…so, resistance was futile.

Putting Jake and Vienna on the proverbial back burner, the Iceland excursion by the current Bachelorette brought back funny memories.  When my husband was stationed in North Carolina, he was assigned a mission flying from Keflavik in Iceland.  I accompanied him.  Two of our best days on the isalnd involved animals.  We spent one day dog-sledding on the glacier.  On another adventure, like Ali Fedotowsky and her boys, we went horseback riding on the lava fields.  We wore the silly riding hats…just like ABC’s casts.  We were freezing our rears off and we ended our day in the Blue Lagoon.  That is where the similarities end.

Everything started off fine.  The horses were reluctant to leave the barn on such a cold (February) morning.  We headed out at a leisurely pace.  The farther we moved from the paddock area, the more comfortable the horses appeared to be.  My horse disguised her true intentions.  When our guide was distracted and without warning, my horse bolted back toward the barn.  Our guide pursued.  I arrived, then the guide arrived, then my husband’s riderless horse.

“OMG (edited for modernism), where is Tim?”

“He’s in the lava field.”

“OMG, is he OK?”

“I don’t know, but he was laughing.”

Tim’s excuse:  ”When we were in the middle of the lava field, I went down and left, and the horse went up and right.  I landed on my butt.”

We went to the Blue Lagoon to warm our frozen joints and to heal an aching posterior.

JAKE AND VIENNA

Well..SURPRISE…they will not be going to the altar and eternal wedded bliss is not in their future.

From the drama of his return in the previous season’s “Bachelorette” to his appearance on this season’s “Dancing With The Stars,” Jake sends the signals that say, “I want to be a star!”

So, this Oahu Pet Photographer suggests that both Jake and Vienna get a pet.  Something sweet that requires only the amount of attention that career reality stars can give.

As to “The Bachelor” and “The Bachelorette,” fellow Sunny Hills alum (Go Lancers!), Mike Fleiss must be extremely proud of the show’s success…which is fortunately measured in market share and not in successful marriages.
