Hoku, King of the Forest

January 6, 2014

Hello Hoku is the story of girl
and boy meets shiba in Southern California. We love climbing mountains, weekend road trips, exploring our city, growing vegetables, and fixing up our little old house. We also appreciate a witty pun or portmanteau.

This is our little plant corner where the sun comes through the window just right in the afternoons, making it the ideal spot for dog naps and photosynthesizing. @revivalrugs helped us take the coziness to 💯 with a beautiful, one of a kind rug. We love that every rug is handmade and vintage (between 30-100 years old!) Their shop launches today so go and take a peek at all the beautiful things!

Pho-n Fact: Dog photography takes on a whole new level of difficulty when you’re racing against the speed at which rice noodles soak up broth. (And as you can see by this soupless bowl, Me: 0 / Pho: 1.) True story behind this photo. I was trying to recreate my @foxandbagel #pho pin for National Noodle Day (minus the rare steak.) Kept thinking it was on the 16th until I realized yesterday that it was actually on the 6th. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Thank goodness for #tbt.

Wake up. Walk. Eat. Back to bed.

Learning how to dog smile from the best of the best. Congratulations on the awesome new book @thegracechon! (PS: We spy our LA friends, @emwng and @popeyethefoodie :)

Can’t believe we almost missed #nationalcoffeeday! Who else loves a cup of coffee after a nice dinner just as much as you do with breakfast? 🙋🏻☕️

When your employees are better dressed than you.
Hoku’s wearing the @foxandbagel Good Citizen pin and dog bone pin! He earned his Canine Good Citizen (CGC) a few years ago but *just barely* passed the test in which he needed to sit politely and accept pettings from a friendly stranger. (Shibas, am I right? 🙄)

Afraid to call it and jinx us with another heatwave next week, but...Fall, is that you? 🍂

"Soooo, now that my face is on our bestselling patch and all, I'd like to renegotiate my contract to include a personal assistant and an espresso machine."

Thanks again to everyone who participated in our first ever @foxandbagel giveaway! Hoku helped select our winner from over 300 entries. PS: Guess which patch they chose? ;)
