Speaker 3:I will ask Penny From TNC Canals, hawaii Raised some French Bulldogs and some Shorty Bulls.

Speaker 1:Kaleo Teixeira Kaneohe, born and raised, and Frenchies and bullies, whatever. We just love dogs around here. So you bring me two hours this book. So I don't really love all dogs.
Speaker 2:Right on. Well, thank you guys for taking time out of your evening to come on my show. I appreciate it. The big project show you guys are putting on the battle of the bullies going to be at the Kroc center March 8th, can you guys tell me a little bit about this show? It seems like, from what I was researching, it's kind of a big deal.
Speaker 4:Yeah, so we got about 50 plus channels that have been locked in already for the show. So it's pretty much we're going to have category shows. We're going to have all types of bully breeds, so English exotics, bullies, big bulls, shorty bulls and all that and then on top of that we're going to have one extreme tournament in between the category shows and that's going to have a pretty big cash prize and a nice trophy at the end for the winner. Oh man, it's going to for the winner, oh man, pretty big show man.
Speaker 1:Pretty big cash prize. He's talking about a couple thousand dollars, a couple thousand.
Speaker 2:Yeah, how do you win the show? What is the criteria for the judging? They're not going to battle each other for real, kind of Come on bring it on the extreme side, because that's probably going to be the easiest.
Speaker 4:Yeah, sorry, other, like for real kind of extreme side cano, because that's probably be the easiest. Yeah, so it'll be. Yeah, it'll be like a confirmation kind of show, but it's not with someone sanctioned show where, um, you get like one big registrar, so it's pretty much like one. Oh, why are you sure? Okay, that's that we're going to be just judging, like conformation and the chest, the front, the side. They're going to be looking at the dogs all the way around and then choose the best that is fit to the standard of the breeder.
Speaker 2:Okay, but they don't got to run through the obstacles and all that kind of stuff. Oh no, Nothing like that. They're going to be stacking yeah yeah, stuff like that.
Speaker 4:Walking back and forth stacking the dog. They're just going to be looking, yeah, yeah, and stuff like that. Walking back and forth stacking the dog and the project, somebody looking at the dog, and stuff like that and who judging him um the confirmation show we get um Stacia O'Hara pretty one, pretty um knowledgeable judge.
Speaker 4:She go all over the world. She's an AKC um handler too as well, so she know she pretty much getting all that knowledge on how full of her dog I mean what for look for I'm on dog yeah she's the number one handler out here in akc.
Speaker 2:That's yeah and that's for like the, um, the, the. What is it? What was the uh name of that contest?
Speaker 4:on the, on the category shows. You mean yeah, yeah, yeah, so it's all different. Um, like one breed category, like English Bulldogs will be one category, exotic will be one category, and so forth, and so on yeah, okay, how many categories you said had um total, we're gonna have 20, so we're gonna have one mixture of fun categories and um breed categories and breed categories, and then we get the tournament as well, the Extreme Tournament.
Speaker 2:Okay, so when you do the tournament, how does that one work?
Speaker 4:This one will be. They will go one on one. It will be like one lose elimination kind type tournament, so it will go all the way to to the end, like they don't have to battle each other to the last dog standing. Oh they go. Bracket kind of a bracket kind. Yeah, pretty much like March Madness, thanks yeah.
Speaker 1:When pulls down, like one. Like I said, two guys go up in the ring and Two guys with their dogs pulls down. Their dogs difference different front angle, side angle, rear angle and they're calling them stacking. So we stack our dogs to the best potential and see who comes up, like how you said. Then the judge picks the winner and we go down to the next dog.
Speaker 2:Oh, that's kind of cool. Oh, it's a winner advance.
Speaker 4:So for sign-up, anybody can sign up, or they had to like win couple stuff first, or Anybody can sign up as long as their dog is extreme, which is exaggerated features on one breed type dog. So they don't have to the dog won't have to just be more. The features will be exaggerated more than what the standard is for that breed.
Speaker 2:Oh, so like the dog got to be like yoked out yoked yeah yoked all kind
Speaker 1:of nice, kai green is exaggerated features so he's an extreme man, which is an extreme dog, like, and you see a huge difference between like, how kono saying so. What he's saying is like the confirmation show. You get the, you get the standard of the dog. Basically, you take all the dogs that enter that part and you take the standard breed. You say, okay, this is the standard dog, how the dog's supposed to look, and all the dogs get judged against that dog and whoever comes out with the closest to that dog is going to be the winner. It's all. Just, you come out, you just flex and see who's got the biggest, baddest bone muscle, head, legs, rear. So you look at all of those kind of stuff, you put them all together and one dog will be like hey wait, that's not how it's supposed to be. Yeah, yeah, that's an extreme. So that's what I'm hearing is what he's kind of going to be looking for. Is that Okay, that wow factor, that soul effect in the?
Speaker 2:dog yeah, oh he's only 5'7".
Speaker 1:But the bugger, he's 260, full of bone and muscle. You know what?
Speaker 2:I mean, okay, now I kind of get the understanding. Okay, brother, he's a dog, so how you build him up for being that big, like just working him out, are you giving them? Like genetics okay, so you and then you can play off that with their nutrition and and and their workout regimen kind just walk home, you know, exercise them a little bit.
Speaker 3:You know, yeah, but when I first got into it, I used to always tell people, wow, what you giving your dogs, what you doing to your dogs? And they used to tell me genetics. And then one day I believed it. It was genetics, just it just came out, came out the way it was bred. You see muscles, some dogs no more neck, some dogs get shoulders, rear the rump. Everything is just like wow, there's just a wow, wow factor in a dog.
Speaker 2:Kind of like horses, or like fighting chickens too, once you got good blood. Like horses no, but exactly like horses.
Speaker 1:You take the. I call them phenotypes. You take the phenotype to what you like. Put it this way Like I tell, tell everybody if I wanted one volleyball player, I would have go marry one five foot eleven woman.
Speaker 1:You know me, I try to unlock that phenotype, that I need to find one nice solid foundation for that, for that kind of like. With the breeding, I try to unlock certain things in both dogs to where you're like okay, like it's either the hump neck is, is it a bone? What am I looking for in that dog? I'm not going to put two dogs with two big heads together with no chest. They don't have on big headed puppies with no, with no, no spread like that. So as long as you stack in your dogs and and I believe in line breeding, line breeding is on, is on big thing I'm putting the right, the right dogs together.
Speaker 1:But again, at the end of the day it's whoo and get lucky. You know what I mean. We all get lucky. It's consistency. We try to look for is if all the whole litter looks the same, then we know we're on the next level, we know we made it to that level. If we get seven looking different dogs and seven puppies, then to me I'm kind of far off. You know what I mean. I need to work towards what I need to work towards. We all look at them different.
Speaker 2:You guys all Tria's professional breeders. You guys have your own kennel.
Speaker 1:Professional.
Speaker 4:I don't know.
Speaker 1:I don't know about professional but, we have our own kennel Ethical and trying to do them the right way and being out in the crowd and speaking about it, yes, but when, when it comes with when you're out there doing your thing, you know what I mean. You get that. You get that other side of it. So I'm professional as best as we can be. Yeah, present ourselves a certain way. You know, profession is only presenting yourself and presenting the product in a certain way too. So I'm pretty sure we all professional in that, in that realm.
Speaker 2:um, I always try to be professional or at least play it, play it, play it off that way. Yeah, bro, I seen like when you guys are breeding it's kind of more scientific than just putting two dogs together. I seen you had like shit that I use at work for my medical company. Um, you have centrifuges. You guys do like hormone, kind of knowing the dog on.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's called progesterone, yeah, yeah, progesterone testing. Um, they basically draw the blood. We find the ovulation um, we just find that um, find the ovulation numbers and, like mine, I have a number, I have a machine that finds those numbers for me. Um, so basically we try to find those numbers and um, because everything is ai now we don't do a lot of, there's rarely there's um live readings, meaning um male on female, um actually having a um reading.
Speaker 1:There's a lot of lot to do with, believe it or not, there's a lot of um stds out there in the dog world too. So not only that, yeah, yeah, not only that, um, it's just not as it's. The dogs are not the same, built so, like the old school 45 pound pit bulls can jump on each other and mount a lot. These dogs are built a little bit more front heavy so they get a little more tired. So a lot of them cannot mount. You know what I mean. So when he's talking about extreme, the extreme dogs, they cannot mount um. And again, when you mount it, it's a locking mechanism and their arms so short, like I'll show you a couple of my dogs, my arms so short, they can't even lock around. They jump on her, they fall right off. So it's kind of like it's a circus act. So we gotta we're. We're the um, the liaison for that, we're the ones with ais, so I do the ai, and then we also do ultrasounds. We do all kind of reproduction services oh, wow, that's super cool, that, bro.
Speaker 2:That's that's science. That's science at its best, you know. I mean like, yeah, oh, so you. So you guys can figure out from breeding to start producing dogs a certain look, a certain way you want it to be. And once you get like that champion, then you can kind of use that bloodline, just like chickens or like, like you said, on horse, to sell to other people or to develop dogs through that litter. You could use him as a stud. Huh, no.
Speaker 1:Yeah. There's a big market for studying. So like where now you can send semen, like I can take my, like I've sent semen mainland you can send semen. I brought in semen from UK, so we bring in nitrogen or like dry ice Well yeah, well, just ice.
Speaker 1:So what we do is there's an actual thing called extender and you can extend. The semen actually extends it up to 10 days. So, um, it's basically on byproduct of it, it's protein. You put it in, you put it in with the semen, you mix them in, you put them in one box. I got a box around here somewhere. I mean, put them in a box, in a little styrofoam box with ice pack, send them off, and that's a. My friend then just brought one in for $8,000. So I said $8,000 box, is this big bro?
Speaker 3:Oh.
Speaker 2:It's a dog urn inside.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I just did a reading today.
Speaker 1:I've got it in, yeah, so they bought the box for $8,000. It came with 10 cc's in there, so two tubes of 5cc each and we inseminate the girl.
Speaker 2:So we did one yesterday and then one today, and how guaranteed a ting gone.
Speaker 3:Work, though, like you, get refund if the ting not catch in this dog business, I, I like to tell people nothing, even in life. Nothing is guaranteed, nothing is guaranteed. I stick with life. Nothing is guaranteed. Yeah, nothing is guaranteed. I, I, I, I stick with that. Nothing is guaranteed. We would like it to work, but nothing is guaranteed yeah, yeah, that's true.
Speaker 2:The best thing you can do is create the best odds for it to work.
Speaker 1:You know what I mean yes, yes, especially when we facilitating the whole, the whole thing. You know, I mean before we used to breed, back in the day you put them in the kennel 9, 11, 13 days usually is right around there. You put them in nine days oh, she's not reacting, she's not flagging. You take them back out. 11 day, oh she's flagging. You put, leave them in.
Speaker 1:You, man, hope for the best, uh mama takes care of puppies, but now it's we whelping, so there's a not only you're help facilitating the breed. Um, the only thing us guys don't do is basically don't take the puppies out, because everything is c-section. So, yeah, because again, a lot of these dogs. Now what we're trying to do is we're trying to get the heads very extreme, and when you have an extreme head you don't have an extreme canal. The thing you cannot change is, is the reproductive part of any dog right? You can change the features, but you can't change that. So a lot of them get C-sectioned. For the pups and for mama it's to me a little bit more better off for them in the long run. But with that we got to take care of the puppies a little bit more, because these puppies are smaller with bigger heads, less mobility at the first week or two. So we are the facilitators.
Speaker 1:Like Tenny is Frenchies is a little bit different. Me and Tenny, we're well up our own Frenchies, so it's a whole other animal. Every two hours you're feeding them up. Every two hours feeding. You don't get sleep for like the first at four weeks you probably get a couple hours sleep on top of that, but other than that we're up all day, every day. So that's why the prices become a little bit at where they at. You know, I mean it's because not only what we put into it but the um amount of time and effort that we do, oh, yeah, time is money bro.
Speaker 2:They look tired today bruh that's you probably freaking. Take care of dogs. If you guys do that for those dogs, like how, how long does it take for the puppies to be able to develop enough where they can be given or sold to another home or away from the mom and you guys?
Speaker 4:Six to eight weeks oh okay, so you're running litters.
Speaker 2:for how many times a year?
Speaker 4:Depends on how much females you get and how much time they're gonna need, you know. So all depends on what, if you like breed or not, you know, yeah, right yeah, it all depends on who and what you know.
Speaker 1:All of that, like right now I'm I got, I've made some, some dogs to where I just wait a little bit, I get about one more year to where I probably gonna start putting the my new generation dogs into the mix. So so, like, like, um, it all depends where you at what you're trying to do. Um, right now the market is is not the same, and not only in a market, but, um, there's a lot of saturation out there with different dogs.
Speaker 1:So, um, but, 2025 should be on turnaround, where it's going to be a lot better. The dog show is coming back. A lot of beach parks is opening up for dogs. They're going to open up bars, restaurants, 2025. So it's going to be a different year. Ala Moana Beach Park is going to open up to dogs. They just opened up one new dog park in Kaneohe, one huge one down by Pohala School. So it's a year of the dog. It's a year of the dog. Maybe it's the year of the snake or the crocodile, I don't know what it is for the chinese side, but for for hawaii, it's going to be the year of the dog. Um, all these high rises going up in makiki and all these people with dogs, they're going to have to help. Yeah, where you gotta go, all these places you cannot take dogs. So it's. You try to do that with kakaako and hopefully it changes with waikiki now oh, that's super good.
Speaker 2:I know plenty people using that. Um, it's like saying that that's one. One support animals to get them, like, bypass all those loopholes. But I didn't realize you couldn't take dogs to alamana. Now that I think of it, yeah, I never see dogs there.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, and that was a big one when they was talking about changing that where Ala Moana Beach Party. That's a big one Because, again, nine out of 10 people that go to Ala Moana get one dog. You know what I mean. Yeah, guaranteed, and they got to leave them at home, which sucks. Yeah, but the hard part is with these little terriers Terriers out there, you know what I mean, and these Mercedes cars they're going to be, they're going to get into some little action so hopefully they can keep it on the wraps. You know what I mean.
Speaker 2:But no, it should be on good year in 2025 for dogs. So you guys treat all breed the same kind dogs, or?
Speaker 4:different kind, All different, different breeds, but the same breed. I mean same booty breed, but different types of those.
Speaker 2:So, right now the Frenchies is kind of the most popular, huh yeah no, well, the Frenchies are popular because they've been popular.
Speaker 1:But what's been happening is there's an evolution of Frenchies. There's four or five different type of Frenchies. Now that's becoming so. They had the regular Frenchie, then they came out with a fluffy Frenchie, then now they get like hairless Frenchies, they get big rope Frenchies, they have coy Frenchies. So they're coming out with all these different variations of Frenchies. So that's kind of what's not keeping it. I don't know if it's keeping it popular or messing it up in so many ways. So it's keeping it. I guess the talks of people's tongues, but it's going in different directions, kind of in an exotic way. They call it exotics, but it's going in different directions, that's all.
Speaker 2:That's kind of cool and what the those, those dogs like you guys all have paperwork for it, like you guys have to be certified or or stuff like that yeah, those dogs are paper yeah yeah, you don't have to, but it's, it's more how should I say makes the dog more valuable as having the people right people to the right dog.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, plus can show lineage too, huh yeah.
Speaker 1:It's like having a title to a car, kind of.
Speaker 3:I mean, you can have the registration, but the title is just a little bit more of like it's where the dog come from like on dog facts that's why these shows that Kanoa putting on and stuff it's good for people to come to the shows and look at the dogs on what they want or have an idea of what they want.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Speaker 3:And that's why the shows is like I say. It plays a big part. If you're looking for a dog, come to the show, not just go to a pet store and look at this. Every puppy looks cute in a window. You know what I mean. You can see the different ages, the different sizes, the different types. We even at Battle of the Boos, we Kanoa and I we stress kids, kids to come into the ring with the dog. If you get a new family looking for a dog for your kid, you're going to see the junior handlers which we call them looking at this one dog, be like wow, look at that. Oh, I want that dog for my kid, or I want that dog for my kid, or maybe we should get this dog for our house. You know what I mean. Like that kind of thing.
Speaker 2:That's why this show is kind of important for all these dog breeders and dog lovers oh, that's super cool and during the show, like you guys gonna have a lot of people who have kennels set up around, kind of showcasing their like litters or or their, their dogs that they have, that they're trying to sell or breed, or show what kind of dogs that they have yeah, um, not every show allow you to do that, but kanoa um, as the hothead productions and battle of the boos, he allows it.
Speaker 3:He allows that to happen for the people. Kanoa's battle of the booze is for the people, so he allows that. I'm not saying any other show don't allow it or not for the people, but that's what kanoa wants to do for the people is to let them advertise what they got, show what they got.
Speaker 4:You know oh, that's super cool only because other like, um, like, this show is more like on I don't say a fun show, but it's more like on the expo where people can show off their stuff, because in like sanctioned shows, you're more concentrating on competition, right, so you know you don't really mingle with other people, but this show at least you can, you know, relax a little bit, talk to your peers, market or not market, but interact with people and get connections.
Speaker 3:You said it's something that's a good place for all.
Speaker 2:You guys that do this can network and throw ideas at each other.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's exactly what it's like. Like he's saying what they're kind of saying is when you go to one other show they're sanctioned by uh uh, like say akc, akc is the biggest, so say you're going to one, say canola, say okay, this is gonna be a sanctioned show. That means he has akc coming in and akc basically dictating who the dogs, the judging and all of that, how the dogs get judged and all of that, where this, this one, it's kind of under his regime and kind of his judges. So it's like he said, a little more laid back. It's not like he gets a couple pink job. Pink job meaning the color of the dog. You can get rewarded for that. So there's much more laid back, rewards and family-oriented. We get junior handlers going to ring, we encourage the kids going in there. Like you say, showcase the dog.
Speaker 1:Um, but like 10, you will say I want to touch a little bit on what 10 you were saying um, you know what's happening right now.
Speaker 1:There's a lot of people just buying dogs right off the internet oh, cute dog.
Speaker 1:And they don't understand behind that dog there's somebody that's handling that dog and that there's a lot of mishandled dogs out there and now a lot of these dogs becoming, um, shelter dogs is because they're treating them like they, kind of what came from the shelter as puppies. You know, if you don't treat the dogs right in the first eight weeks of their life, that's the most, that's the most crucial time and a lot of, a lot of times these dogs are not being treated well. So you come to the shows, you see how they're being treated in in the ring, see that I've been with us, see that with us, and then you can see the differences. I think, with all of that um but yeah, it's wonderful, touch on that because that's to me that's big even going to the, to the pet shops the pet shops, a lot of them just taking in the dogs don't even know where the dog's coming from um, and I think that's where a lot of the issues come from right.
Speaker 1:If you buy a dog from me, you're with me for life, I you with me for life. Any issue or anytime, get something with the dog. You give me a call, um I'll go facilitate whatever needs to be facilitated oh, that makes sense.
Speaker 2:I didn't even think of that. You're right, because if your actual kennels and people that are there handling the dogs as babies and stuff that puts a face to the dog, people can talk to you. Brad, that sounds like a good situation. It seems like it's kind of a family kind of thing, right. It seems like a show for you bringing your families and all that, oh yeah, big time.
Speaker 4:Yeah, we encourage that, yeah, Let me know. Yeah, All these dogs, I mean you get family, you get little kids like you know. Call them pet dogs and stuff like that. So yeah, we encourage everybody to call them, especially the kids.
Speaker 1:Under my tent you get me, my five daughters and my wife. That's what's under my tent. So, tandy, the same thing, him, his wife and his daughters, and then his team, but that's 100%. What it's all about is Ohana, ohana, ohana.
Speaker 2:Oh, that's, super cool.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that's right, like I was saying, that's what Kanoa with his shows. He goes strong with Family, fun for the kids and a great time. We even get food vendors, snacks, come out, enjoy, enjoy, you know, and and and and. Just just have a great time. No more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no shame Say. How's it my name? My name, rob? Hey, how's it my name? Kaleo? You know, like that.
Speaker 1:Just like that. But, they're the part of the family. So they're the part of the family, right.
Speaker 2:Just tense up, enjoying ourselves. You guys notice, like plenty of people that are in the market for dogs come to this, or people who already have the dogs, both bro People that are new, like, yeah, plenty of people, even from like the public, like that.
Speaker 4:When they come out, sometimes they just, you know, they just see the ad, they just come out to see dogs right, they don't know nothing about the breed. But when they come see the show and they get to actually mingle and interact with the dogs, that's when you know they change their minds about the bully breed. That's part of the reason why we get these shows too, because we get plenty of stereotypes about the dogs. They think they're pit bulls and they're rough and all that kind of stuff. But when you come and you see the dogs in action, mingling with everybody, they can get along in the ring. You get a better perspective on how the breed is put together.
Speaker 2:Oh, that makes sense. How did you come up with this concept and when did you start putting on shows like this?
Speaker 4:The shows was. I mean, I had shows before we even started putting on shows, so it's just one piggyback on that. But most of the shows that we had in Hawaii was sanctioned shows like ABKC, usbr or whatever you know IBKC. So we just kind of went with just one little one fun. We actually we started off with one barbecue, like in a park or something you know. It's all free, everybody just come out and we just have small kind of sack offs, yeah, and it eventually turned into like one, you know, an actual show. That's pretty much how, and we just ran with it after that because we've seen so much people come out. The turnout was good, was always positive, right, and they get people like Kaleo and brother Teni, always supporting, always helping me out, everything from the beginning. So with all these brothers you're putting a lot of people involved as well. Brother Alan, um, kaleo I mean um, um, what do you call that? Travis, and brother ola from from maui. They're all helping with the show behind the scenes.
Speaker 3:So it's just bottles like that.
Speaker 4:That's what keep. Keep the show going. It's not me. It's not me at all. You know what I mean? I just, I just don't freaking vehicle that driving oh, I just a driver somebody got a driver yeah, everybody else is supporting the car, bro, the cars. So without, without brothers like that, your show wouldn't be possible. Yeah, that's cool solid team always bro. Yeah, because without them no way, no way we can pull this off takes a lot more for this kind of stuff too oh yeah, bro, just from hearing you guys talk, no way, no way we can pull this off.
Speaker 2:Takes a lot for this kind of stuff too. Oh yeah, bro, just from hearing you guys talk about it, it seemed like on something big bro, like on project. When did you do the first one? Like the?
Speaker 4:first actual Our first actual show was in 2023. Was at the Tech Park Center, yeah, and was on hit. We had two people, so we had to just tell ourselves that we got to keep running this out here we fill up the, we fill up the whole parking lot and the inside. Yeah so we kind of have to change our plans of the um the layout yeah, yeah a couple thousand people would run to that place that night.
Speaker 1:I guarantee you that, because I was right in the front. You know I got everybody else, so it was a good night. Brad, it's a very good night.
Speaker 2:We're getting different vibes. Oh, that's super cool, brad. How do you get sponsorship, like if somebody wanted to be a sponsor and stuff?
Speaker 4:We'll just advertise it.
Speaker 4:I'll just advertise it on my IG. And the amount of people that like sponsors is pretty crazy, bro, because I mean it is, and left and right, we take all kinds of sponsorships. Probably sponsorships the main sponsors, you know. They like donate, get like, for example, like Pet Depot and stuff like that 604, all those guys all donating stuff, you know, tents or doll, food or gift certificates, whatever it is, bro, we take whatever and everything goes to the show, bro. So whatever money I make, I try to, you know, put it to the show, even for the sponsors, try to advertise them with like social media, like influencers or whatever. Like we just made one video with Jess Coppano, with Jess, yeah, so yeah, with Jess yeah.
Speaker 1:So yeah, I know I was a guru, but Jess, I am.
Speaker 4:Yeah, I was a guru, jess, I am, yeah, so it's pura.
Speaker 2:Oh, that's cool, and are you?
Speaker 1:like. I like being the front row, so I always sponsor because I don't like being the back speaking of your sponsor.
Speaker 2:What company, using a sponsor, the show with?
Speaker 4:we get plenty sponsors, so we get Kennell sponsors. This is High Block Bullies, five Old Bulls. We got KRK Trucking Brother Khalil Colorful.
Speaker 2:Frenchies. It seems like there's a lot of people that are super down to support this thing and I think, from what you guys are explaining to me, the family vibe is probably the biggest draw, because brah people like take their family to do stuff and get them off their ipads and get them away from television and stuff like that and, like you guys were explaining earlier, everybody loves dogs. How many people have dogs? It's, um, it's, it's a culture that no one ever tries to unite as much and put a family vibe to it and fuck, I mean, they do it for portage horseshoes, brother, big fucking party like why?
Speaker 2:not do it yeah, why not do it with something that all people care and love about? That's actual members of your family. A lot of people think their dogs is part of their family. And brad, that's such a super awesome way to bring everybody together. Brad, that's super innovative. That's adam.
Speaker 1:I'm surprised nobody thought of doing it that big before well, it's different perspective hearing the frame from the outside, from you. So it's that's the way I feel inside. But you know, I try to explain that every day but it's hard because everybody like, oh, this guy's talking about dogs again.
Speaker 1:You know I mean it's like oh he's talking about dogs again. It's like I, it's kind of like that guy that your friend that went to a divorce. Every time you see him, oh, this guy, he would talk about dogs again. So everywhere I go, like and I'm not trying to sell them, you know, I, I mean, I'm number one is like what's your feeding your dogs? How you? They're like whoa, why, why, why. And again, there's, there's so much knowledge that, like you saying that, not tapped into um yeah, but people like oh, it's my dog, yeah, he barks, no so.
Speaker 1:But nowadays, these, these exotics or these, um, what do you call them these? Um, yeah, I guess designer dogs, it's. It's, it's made for a reason, kind of right, nowadays you breed them for a reason. We play with the temperament a lot with these dogs because of the terrier, like the old school pit bull. So basically the bullies came from and people can say I'm wrong or I'm right, I don't know.
Speaker 1:But they took the pit bull to the English bulldog, kind of got the thicker bone, but what it did with all of that, it made the temperament a lot different. But with the temperament comes with a little bit of the bulldog issues and all that. So they took them to a Frenchie and they took them to some other dogs. But what they're doing is they're playing with different breeds and kind of making them to like I said a designer dog that fits like Tenny was talking about. They're playing with different breeds and kind of making them to like I said a designer dog that fits like 10. He was talking about fits, the family. So you get all these shorty bulls, now that's.
Speaker 1:You look at the dog. Oh, that's an English bulldog, like nope. Then you look at them. If you're a dog man, you look at them like, okay, there's probably like two or three dogs within that. The dog is calm, the dog can sit with you, the dog is not going to be hyper running around like on Jack Russell Terry, running around your house and acting like that. So the designer dogs I guess is more of the exotic dogs nowadays, where it's made to fit a certain person.
Speaker 2:Okay, and this show is going to showcase all the different kinds, then All the different types of breeds within the woody breed, bro yeah.
Speaker 1:And everybody get their own vision of what that is right. I get one right here. Miss Piggy is my rendition of what I think is a Frenchie. But some people will say, oh, she's not because of this and that. But again, this is my rendition of what I think is what I'm looking for in my vision, Because it's a vision. It's like fixing cars right we all can get one brand new Camaro and us three can go build our Camaro. We're all going to bring back one different Camaro, yeah.
Speaker 1:It's because our vision is different. One's going to have a different stance. One's going. Our vision is different. One would have a different stance. One's going to be have a different motor. One's going to have a better paint job. So it's all about what you're looking for, but at the end of the day, make sure that the builder of that car or of that dog is doing them right and breeding for the right things and not just putting the wrong hood on the wrong car. You know what I mean'm calling them one one, one, one classic. That's not the way it works.
Speaker 2:Like you said earlier, it's a lot of scientific stuff going through it that's cool and like with this show, how you guys said individuals can actually talk to the people like you guys who breed them, get their backstory, kind of learn how they're taking care of them, how they came up with the concept of the dogs that they're breeding and fuck that's. That's to me is, like you said, is way better than buying one dog from a pet store or at the puppy swap meet or whatever. It's like you know, now you putting some some kind of tangible lineage with the owners as well as the dogs. That's kind of cool.
Speaker 1:Right, exactly, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 4:And you can see the different types of dogs like at different levels. Yeah, you know what I mean. Somebody can say they get bullied, but if you see somebody who is bullied, you know different, from the pet shop bully to a breeder bully. So you can see the difference. You can see different types of dogs to unbreed or bully. You're going to see the difference. You're going to see different types of dogs. From there you can pick what you like. You're going to see them in action live.
Speaker 2:That's true.
Speaker 1:Everybody thinks they're pokey. I can make my puppy look the best puppy, but once they grow up it's like hey, I thought I was getting this. That's where it comes back to when you got that dog from. I can tell you where you got the dogs we got it from. Oh yeah, how do you know? It's because nobody would have stood behind that dog and say this is what it is. I'm standing behind my dog. I'm like that would turn out to be like this you can come to my yard and see, supposedly, how it's going to turn out. Like grandma, I get grandma, I get great grandmas in my yard over here. That and I get great grandkids in my yard. That kind of you can see the resemblance and so how much dogs you get bro.
Speaker 1:Um, if you ask my wife too much, but um, I get the state limit.
Speaker 2:Oh, I didn't even know, I had limits. No, I get, I get.
Speaker 1:I get the better of 10 dogs Um okay, okay. But yeah, it's, and it's as you know. It's like having 10 kids. It's a task every day.
Speaker 2:Oh, yeah, yeah, oh. 10 kids I couldn't handle bro, that's nuts, yeah, bro.
Speaker 1:I get five daughters already, so what's in 10 dogs?
Speaker 2:I know it, bro. I know why you get daughters too, bro. Just like me, I only get daughters, only your daughter. Yeah, I know I do, bruh. This show is kind of set for families. What kind of entertainment you guys have is just kind of the dogs doing their thing.
Speaker 4:That's what everybody's there to see yeah, pretty much just a dog, because I mean pretty much they're going to be running all the time. So we took different categories, so we're going to have breaks here and there, but mainly it's about the dogs, bro, everybody's just we're watching the dogs do their thing and that's. That's pretty much entertainment.
Speaker 2:Because if we get into yeah, I mean if we get other entertainment, not gonna have time bro yeah, yeah, I'm gonna take take away from what, yeah every 15 minutes.
Speaker 1:There's something going on every 15 minutes getting called into the ring. So basically, what happens is if I go in the ring right now, I can come out the ring and I'm over here listening to waiting for the next category, like Kano said. But we set up, boom, it happens and we're breaking down.
Speaker 1:So it's a good time, but it's if you want to participate in the ring, which we encourage because we want you to go in the ring. But some guys sit back and just watch it, which is a good way to do it. If you're in the crowd, you can kind of sit back and watch a good five hours of straight different dogs coming in the ring, and then it's narrowed down to the best in the show. So, like Alcon was saying, there's a best female for every category, there's a best male in every category and then there's a best in breed. So they'll go male, female and then they'll put the male and female against each other and then that male or female goes against all the other breeds, that top of that breed for the best in show.
Speaker 3:Oh, wow.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so it narrows down to one of the best dogs of all. Basically, so you can walk away with the best dog saying the best in show dog, which is the prestigious prize of the bunch.
Speaker 2:So who won them last time?
Speaker 4:Our first winner was Mike with Pet Ross Cattles. He won with one exotic bulldog. I mean not bulldog, but exotic bully. Oh, wow, yeah.
Speaker 2:What a day only want exotic um, I mean not exotic bully.
Speaker 4:Oh wow, yeah, what is my short feet?
Speaker 2:what I hope. They seems like a lot of shit going on.
Speaker 3:What who's hosting like who's on the mic, kind of right now about 10 years are there oh, so you don't want running the whole circus, then just just hey, just MC, just wing it, just go, just have fun, just enjoy that day, man, it'll be crazy so you're going to create the vibe, you're going to create the experience and you're going to be the one wrangling all this going on. Yeah.
Speaker 4:Man. He beat him the first show, so we'll stick with him, brother well, you get nervous or what, or it's kind of easy it ain't easy.
Speaker 3:But again, this is just, uh, um, I look at it, is there's no right, no wrong. This is fun. Yeah, if somebody gets something for, say, hey, come grab the mic, you know, yeah, what I mean. Oh, yeah, yeah, that's all Just, that's how I. So that's how I look at it. To to, to get myself going and like, hey, just do it, have fun. You know what I mean. Let's go Just call, just call the dogs up, joke with the people.
Speaker 1:Hey, don't be modest. But this guy gigs all the time, Don't even familiar. He gigs all the time with his family, bro, oh no, Sorry, Teddy bro, Sorry Teddy, hey, bro it just happened in Vegas. Yeah, get your own phone For real, hey.
Speaker 3:For real, for real.
Speaker 2:You should wear a polaca shirt. Play them off.
Speaker 3:I was in Vegas. We just came back and had this auntie and uncle next to me, Old, I mean, they got to be in the 80s. I hear the uncle whisper to the wife hey, the guy look familiar. She didn't even look at me. She said yeah, that's Kelly boy. She look at me. Yeah, you, Kelly boy. Yeah, I go, oh.
Speaker 1:See, yeah, really bro. My mother said yeah, what you need, uncle, what you need bro.
Speaker 2:Probably make their day too, and they're going to tell all the fans. Oh yeah, I see Kelly Boy on the plane.
Speaker 3:What is with that? I'm not even talking to you, baby bro. That's so funny.
Speaker 2:Would be Khalil for bringing that up.
Speaker 3:That's funny bro.
Speaker 2:So how long is the show? It seems like it's going to take a long time.
Speaker 4:We found 5 to 10.
Speaker 2:Oh, at night, At night, so you have lights and everything over there.
Speaker 3:We try to keep it at night time Because it's cooler for the dog.
Speaker 2:Oh, that makes sense.
Speaker 3:And the handlers, because the handlers got to stand up, bend down, stand up, bend down, oh yeah, it's a whole action.
Speaker 2:How do you guys make the ring bro?
Speaker 3:We rent barriers oh okay, the metal.
Speaker 2:Oh, yeah, yeah yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:So I'm big. What is that about? Probably 50 by 50.
Speaker 3:I don't know what size they're doing, but pretty good size one that's where all our all, our all our sponsors come in and stuff oh, that's super cool.
Speaker 2:That's um, wow, it seems like you guys have a lot of support, brah, and yeah, it seems. It seems like the uh communities that that's involved is all about it down with you guys I'm gonna share.
Speaker 3:I'm gonna share one story with you guys about, uh, on this um with one bully that I was walking at the pet expo. I had this nice bully, the thing looked super mean. So everybody, walk around me, walk around me, walk around me. And I tell him come, auntie, pet my dog, come pet my dog. No, I scared, no, I scared. By the end of the day we were ready for leave. This elderly auntie and uncle wanted one dog for them from being scared and we always say educate yourself before you know. Being afraid or thinking bad of the dog yeah, or thinking bad of the dog yeah, because they're only going to show what the bad do, but they don't know the good the dog do. And that's what we try to show people at the shows. Like Kaleo, he always have his dogs on the table just playing people petting the dogs and what not. So it's one thing good about this show that the shows is we can try and help educate the people About these breeds that coming out.
Speaker 2:Oh, that's super cool. I mean, like you guys said, some of the pitbulls got a bad rep or whatever. It kind of takes away. That's that the way people look at them. And, like you said, education is important and that's kind of goes with everything in life, bro. Like people are afraid of what they don't know, so it's like fuck, if you know, then you don't need to be afraid anymore and we're different.
Speaker 1:Growing up with the people, we was different as kids. We we was a little bit more on that, on that rougher side, yeah a little raw so we could kind of handle these dogs like how, supposed to? Now it's not the same. There's a lot more of us, you know what I mean. A lot more people, and when there's more people they're more crowded, and when you do that, not everybody can handle the same dogs.
Speaker 2:Yeah. Well this younger generation, in my opinion, is a little softer too. I don't think they could handle the dogs that you had when you were kids. You know what I mean. Those dogs was more rough, just like. Just like how people was more rough back then, you know I mean exactly, exactly cracks for these reps, yeah, but shoot.
Speaker 2:The way you guys are educating and bringing families together is what's the most impressive to me personally. Like people, the can win and all that and you have some champions. But for families to take part in that and get to know and educate it on, brad, that's only going to build that community bigger Because it's going to. You guys seem like you guys are growing every year. Huh, it's getting bigger.
Speaker 3:It's getting bigger. It's getting bigger again. What would hurt the bully community was the COVID. It had COVID because parks were shut down, halls were shut down, you know everything. You couldn't have more than 10 in one gathering, more than 10 in one gathering. So now that we get to do these shows, it's getting there again. We got to rebuild everything. I'm going to use Kaleo as an example, with his pet, his food, his raw food business. If we never open up how we are opening up now, it would be hard, I think, for something like that. So, with these shows and he's coming to advertise, it's going to be really awesome for somebody like him yeah, well, yeah, I wanted to ask you about that.
Speaker 2:Like your raw food, like how does that's your company now? How does that work? Because it just makes a lot more sense to me with what you're doing just feeding your animals than buying those big things of like, well, you don't even know what's in it, it's mostly fillers, and that just like humans, right, you cannot just feed yourself any kind of crap and think you can get good results right, right.
Speaker 1:So for me, I was feeding raw for a long time and I used to buy them from the stores or get them from farms, um, but again, even the store is not making the, the food is not the same. So I found that my dog wasn't doing well on the store bought foods, um, raw chicken or beef, um. Then I went to some of the farms out here, but some of them couldn't sustain. I was trying to look for a big market, so I went around and I found this guy in louisiana. He's another breeder, um, and this is what he does he gets farm to the table, basically meat, um, and it's a blend that has organs. You got bone in there. So it's a, it's a nutrient blend that is basically if, if, kind of like we would be eating fruits and the nutrients that we need. That's basically what they need in that chub um to help with their, with. I mean, get from tripe in there to to fish, to bone and all that has. You know, omega, omega trees. You get, um, you get calcium that the dogs need. So you get all these stuff that dogs need to be balanced. That we never looked into. We just fed them, but now we're kind of balancing them out and learning the science behind it of what an actual dog needs. A dog needs fat, fiber and protein three things they need for their diet to strive in.
Speaker 1:What I always portray is what you feed them now is going to be longevity in the long run. So when your dog is older and you're taking them to the vet and having all these problems, it's like, oh, my dog is young. Yeah, when you're a 10-year-old kid, he's going to have the common cold. He can eat hamburgers all day. He's not going gonna feel those hamburgers until he becomes 40, 50 years old. That's when the hamburger that he ate at 10, 15 years old every day comes into play. So that's kind of what the whole how I try to portray what's happening in the world. Um, your dog's getting a lot older, a lot quicker and, yeah, I'm dying a lot faster and having a lot of more issues because of the food. No nutrition, nutrition value. There's no nutritional value.
Speaker 2:And it goes the same way with humans. So if you eat McDonald's every single day, then bruh as you get to be our age you're going to be detrimental. I got to ask you so what? You cook the raw food and feed them to your dogs?
Speaker 1:Nope, Once you cook the stuff. So, like us, we're not supposed to eat raw, but a lot of the nutrients gets lost when you cook them. All that gets gets burnt off and lost in the in the it's. When you say you're going fry hamburger, right, all that, right, there's a lot of nutrients leaving the leaving. So we're gonna get some of the nutrients in there. So no straight raw. Um, the raw is, it's good and they don't. They're, they cannot get some salmonella and all that. So their, their, their bodies are very, very immune to a lot of the issues when it comes along with that.
Speaker 1:Um, you're getting to tell you get a little bit higher bacteria, but we all get back here. If you eat hamburger, we all get about two pounds of hamburger on our colon, unless you're, you're really flushing out your system with fiber. So what I do is with that. I feed them fiber. I there's a. I feed my dogs once a day. A lot of people feed them twice. So I do a lot of different things. I fast my dogs, so a lot of different things that I do. That, um, try to help them. Gut health is number one, and number one to me is you got to get all that stuff out before you replenish the stomach.
Speaker 2:So how did you learn all this stuff?
Speaker 1:first was trial by fire, learned by experience. Like I said, I get one dog out there, 15 by 14, 14 and a half right now. She'd be eating raw from the beginning. Um, like I said, I used to prepare myself, so just learning and growing from it and learning what, what's in the food, how the food reacts to the dog, what, what makes the food, um, what the dogs need and is reading books. My wife is a librarian so I just read a lot of books and try to figure out what's what's best oh, that's super cool, and then internet probably helps too, uh well now nowadays, the internet, yeah, but I'm a picture guy, so the books give me a lot of pictures.
Speaker 1:I mean, the books will get you straight to the, to the like. Rabbit is a huge, big, big, good form of fiber and people don't understand the fur of the rabbit. It's not even the rabbit itself is the fur that will give them the fiber. So all that kind of stuff, and they need that stuff.
Speaker 2:So very good, um, good fiber, um source, yeah, so oh that's super cool and that's your company, that you're you have now and your sponsor.
Speaker 1:You're one of the main sponsors of the show so I'm the main, one of the main sponsors for calico fritchies, my breeding program. But then I I'm a prize sponsor for the. I feed raw. Um, I will provide um some chubs to each winner, um some raw food each winner, and then the best, the biggest winner, I will provide about 10 pounds to them.
Speaker 2:Oh wow. So you win this thing. It's kind of prestigious and you're going to scoop some cool stuff.
Speaker 1:Well, to me the prestigious is two things right, Best in show, because that's the top dog, and then there's extreme stuff. So extreme stuff is a new stuff.
Speaker 2:I don't know I don't see more cool things. Let's elaborate a little bit more on that.
Speaker 1:I just want to elaborate a little bit more on that, because I just heard one guy when he jumped on. Today Kano can correct me if I'm wrong it's like 2,500 right now. Oh, it's about one other guy just jumped on. He just didn't donate. I just seen the post a little while ago. So another guy, so people donate, but those guys are donating and they're bringing the dogs in the ring, so it's kind of like they're betting on himself, right?
Speaker 3:so yeah, yeah, yeah. So it's kind of it's a, it's a for me. I'm kind of on different. I like to have fun with it, um is kanoa on.
Speaker 1:I hear yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll take that ball and ross, sorry, my father is where I think about the fun one to this year, because again, for stacking dog on the table for, say, three hours, say five, ten times and you win the kind of money you're going to win. There's not too much places you can do that, so yeah it's a bunch of money and whoever does it is going home with one again, with one good, prestigious pride in their pocket.
Speaker 3:I guess you know what is the best part about I Feed Raw. Oh, this guy.
Speaker 1:Yes.
Speaker 3:You know what is the best part about? I Feed Raw. What is that? Whoever the emcee he gave him, one year of raw food for his dog. One year of supply food for his dog One year.
Speaker 1:Oh me, that's every 10 minutes. Plug that, bro. I need every 10 minutes, bro Live liners bro.
Speaker 3:All day live liners Instagram.
Speaker 2:you got to plug them bro.
Speaker 1:Plug plug bro.
Speaker 2:That's how we still go Like in the future. What is your vision and goals for this show, because it seems like it's growing. What do you see it turning into and what do you hope it turns into?
Speaker 4:This show right here. You know how I get plenty of shows out in the mainland, right, yeah, you get plenty of other kind of shows that people throw, but we like to show people from Hawaii, like just all Hawaii made, and then we go straight out to the mainland, like Vegas, california, where other people from the mainland can join our show. You know what I mean? Yeah, because it's always oh oh, we go to a show but it's run from, you know, mainland guys. I mean nothing wrong with that, but we like some something come from hawaii, rooted in hawaii, and then you transfer to the mainland.
Speaker 2:that's what I like that would be super cool. Vegas would be perfect, bro. I get so much local support in vegas. Plenty people that um listen to my show is locals that move to vegas because they just like hear local people people talking story. Yeah, that's a. That's a good vision, bro. I could definitely see you doing that, especially in vegas. Oh, you'd drop that. In vegas, everybody would come from cali and everywhere.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that would be a good I just came home from vegas and then the brothers up there was like god, I get the spot for you, I get the spot for you. I said, oh wait, let us, let us hawaii first. You know what?
Speaker 4:I mean yeah, yeah, take a hawaii first, yeah yeah, that's true.
Speaker 2:How's the support been from the outer islands?
Speaker 4:oh, yeah, no, that's why we get plenty support from them. So some other guys behind the scenes is from maui, from big island. We get plenty. So we're playing guys from big island coming down too for the extreme show, you know so, and maui too as well. So we get, we'll get. Yeah, we'll get a pretty good crowd come out, at least from every, every island yeah.
Speaker 3:So from this extreme show I just like share. So we get this Hawaiian weapon that we taught on as a trophy. I'm going to go get them in a little bit. I'm going to go show you.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah.
Speaker 3:So say, for instance you win them, you don't, you don't, you want it. You can put your name on the trophy, but the next show you got to defend them. Oh, like on belt, on belt, yeah. Instead of doing the belt. We did this online trophy, but let me go get this trophy and this is what we came up with and you got to defend them.
Speaker 1:It's not for you to keep. Better not have someone in your house than whoever win them.
Speaker 2:You guys is changing the game a little bit, because I never heard of a dog show like this and I get co-workers that compete and the freaking dog look game a little bit, because I never heard of on dog show, ladies, and I get co-workers that compete and the freaking dog look like a little puff ball and like this is not it. This isn't that kind of show yeah, this seems more more of what like local bradas would be into, you know, I mean check for me coming stream a little bit.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's what it is I think there's a, not a market. Well, there's a market for it, but there's a a want for it. And, bro, these, these, these people like to show off their dogs, they like to be around people that are into the same stuff they're in. And, oh yeah, like brad, it's kind of innovative. Nobody ever thought of doing it this big. You're kind of breaking new levels. Oh that, oh shit, can you?
Speaker 2:see it, I don't know and it's the first year you guys have this. Yeah, who made that thing? That thing is nice.
Speaker 3:See this Designed too.
Speaker 1:Wait, so you're telling me that the extreme winner is going to win that and the money, and the money.
Speaker 2:But they got to bring him back next year. Though I don't know If I won that trophy, I'd pretend that I stole it. Yeah, I'd pretend that I stole it. We got a contract Bob.
Speaker 3:Like I said turn away you got to put an air tag in that fucker, you got to put an air tag in that fucker. No, so we got one legitimate contract that you got to sign and everything that is massive. Yeah, this thing is about what? Three feet total.
Speaker 2:Bruh.
Speaker 3:Yeah, where did you guys?
Speaker 2:get that made. That thing looks amazing.
Speaker 3:Let me go put this away Because I don't like this thing. Drop or anything.
Speaker 4:Oh bro, I forget the name. Hopefully we can plug them.
Speaker 2:Yeah, for sure, bro, that thing is massive. They make all kinds.
Speaker 1:What is that? I don't know. Maybe, I don't know, is massive. They make all kinds bro.
Speaker 4:What kind of wood is that? Kano, mango? I don't know. Maybe I don't know.
Speaker 1:I'm not sure.
Speaker 2:Or wood Boy that thing, look cool bro Boy, like Kano, you gotta enter one of your dogs in for win. That thing no.
Speaker 1:Oh, we trying, bro, trust me. Oh, it depends. Yeah, we'll try it. Well, extreme again. I'm going to have to look. I think I get extreme stuff. But I got to look at the competition, right, oh yeah.
Speaker 2:I got to scout this year.
Speaker 1:I can't understand because you know some of us is blind out there. You know what I mean. I can think I get this and then like, oh where this bugger with me. So one thing about me, and there's two. There's the way guys is in the dog world. They take their mouse and they hide them right and they like bust them out later on, oh, like brah, and then they like bust them out through these guys' shows. So you just never know what's out there, because one guy in the corner, the con of and you grab this and put this on the internet.
Speaker 3:And for me. I'm all over the internet.
Speaker 1:So I'm kind of vulnerable that way, because I put myself out there, right, yeah, but no, I'm going to try, we're going to try. We get a few dogs over here that I think might fit somewhat of Bill. But again, it all depends on what's out there, because if I see one freaking animal that hey, my friend, if I was a judge I ain't going to be that. So no sense, right. But it ain't gonna be that. So no sense, right. But for me it's, I don't care if I win or lose. I always tell everybody hey, I'm out there, so you can plug my shirt.
Speaker 4:You know what I mean.
Speaker 1:I'm out there look at my shirt. So I'm out there for branding. I'm a brander, um, I'm trying to just network yeah networking and all that. So win or lose. I'm gonna go home with a smile on my face. My dog wouldn't go and love me regardless. I'm gonna love them regardless and we're out there Having some fun With the family bro. It's another day at the park.
Speaker 2:I think that's what's Making you guys grow the most Is the family element, and that's how you Built this show around To creating moments With your family. That shit just grows, bro. That stuff grows, and that means you're coming From one place of aloha, one, one place in your heart where it's attractive, like that's what. That's what hawaii needs right now is more stuff like this, because it's it's weird out there, man, everybody on their iphones and all this stuff, and it's like there's no people living in the moment. And, right, they too, they're too set on impressing people with what they're doing, then enjoying what they're doing, and you guys forcing families to come together in a common love for dogs brad, that's.
Speaker 1:I think that's why your stuff's gonna be big I like that word attractive though, because, like you like you say us as a whole. In a way, we was attractive as a whole community and we're not attractive anymore as a community. I mean, we became very, very mundane. I don't even want to use the word Aloha, because it's kind of even mundane word or anything, but just the whole vibe is not the same. We could go out and you know, we could feel them. Now you don't even feel them. Now, it's like's like. Okay, well, we stay here.
Speaker 1:Now I gotta watch myself and before we're like yeah, we over here, you can just know the vibe. You know no more that that vibe anymore.
