Our Portuguese Water Dog, Luka!

The purpose of this post is to make you SMILE!

Luka has been “working” with us at hotels his whole life so far and I think most of our guests love him more than they love us! For real though, his name has been mentioned on TripAdvisor as much as ours! So I feel like he deserves his very own blog post.

A Little Bit About Luka…

We got Luka right when he was born 3 years ago, when we lived on the caribbean island, Roatan. He has traveled with us all over Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica (our home) and Panama. He is supposedly a portuguese water dog, although we are certain not a purebred considering we got him on an island. Luka has one brother (our cat Ashton) and one sister (Xena, who still lives in Roatan).

Luka`s Hobbies

He loves to swim, jump (about 5 feet high)!, fetch, dig in the sand and cuddle. His swimming skills are really impressive. He can jump over the waves to fetch his stick and then body surf his way back to shore (too cute!). His latest hobby is learning how to boogie board (his favorite beach is Playa Linda). His favorite treat is a fresh coconut, he likes to drink the coconut water and then eat the meat too (but only after he plays fetch with it first).

So, not to brag or anything, but Luka is pretty much the best dog ever. Sorry for all you single lady dogs out there though, Luka is married to Emma, our friend`s dog!
