kani,
I am sorry if I generalized about local style. That's why I said "many" and carefully didn't imply ALL. My neighbors are real nice people. I like them. But they just don't think of the dogs or cats as members of the family. The dogs live tied up. They have shade. They are fed. That's the extent. Me, if I have a pet I have to be involved with it and interacting, caring for its comfort, physical and emotional. That's just how I was raised and how I am, but I've seen a whole other mentality in Hawai'i.

apologies are not needed and offense--none taken. an observation on my part, though, is that locals AND transplants alike tie-up their animals. the saddest i've seen is a horse chained-up looking very malnourished up the road from us. gosh, and then there's all the owners who let their dogs rule/roam the neighborhood making it unsafe for humans and the animals. but, that's another thread.
