A shower a day, keeps the heat away!
Here is a photo taken by my friend CP.
Dor Dor is having a shower, he has one of his eyes shut to prevent ingress of water, otherwise he was thoroughly enjoying it.
Dor Dor’s owner, a woman, was giving him a shower.
She belongs to the Tanka people – people who catch fishes in Hong Kong for a living. With fish resource now dwindled, some of them resort to rearing fishes in the sea.
Her traditional straw hat keeps out the sun, she was wearing a colorful shirt and has Crocs on for her shoes.
In the picture, you can also see how those mariculture rafts are assembled – basically inexpensively from plastic water tanks on the peripheral and with fish nets in the interior.
Hope this picture helps you to understand the condition under which Dor Dor lives!
hi Michael,
Dor Dor is so much like my son’s dog. He looks like he has a very kind and loving nature.

I am really enjoying your exhibit of photos of Dor Dor and his environment!
Glad that you like them. Thank you 🙂
I really want to thank you for giving us the world, so t speak. Hugs, Barbara
It is my pleasure to share things that got me interested too! Thank you 🙂
Have a good weekend. Hugs, Barbara
Same to you! Thank you 🙂
Does he get a fish a day too?
No, only some days only. Thank you 🙂
Dor Dor is loved, isn’t he? Such a sweetheart.
Sometimes, he is in a thinking mood, I will show it later. Thank you 🙂
Such a cuddly doggy !!! Mine won’t take a bath and this one loves it !
We have high temperatures here. A shower will be good for him. Thank you 🙂
:))
He is such a beautiful dog. I fell in love with him with your first photograph.
Yes, he is just adorable!
Haha loving the contrast of pink Crocs!!
I agree that there is quite a bit of contrast! Regards, Michael
Interesting! More sophisticated than some fish farms I saw in the Philippines. A guard dog is good for keeping thieves away than to have human guards during daylight hours.

Nice to hear from you, Liz. They have kept the fish farm construction to a minimum so that they don’t loose much in the case of typhoon damage.
What a beauty he is and I can see he is enjoying it so much. Stunning shot! 😀
Great to hear from you, Sonel. I am sure he enjoys it 🙂
Dor Dor looks like one happy puppy! Interesting about these small scale fish farms and the way the Tanka people have adapted.
On some days, only the woman owner and Dor Dor will be on the fish farm, so it could be a lonely life!
It’s nice to see that dogs are loved all over the world 🙂
Some people say, if you treat a dog well, they will return 10 times their love to you!
This has been a great series of photos
Thank you for liking the series!
Again thanks fro sharing.
How cute and lovable Dor Dor is. Can’t understand some people still think dog meat is for meal on their table…. 😦
I can’t understand it either. This happen in places where meat was scarce and developed into a habit. How sad!
What a successful series! So, the owner is the boat woman….too early to reveal the identity of the owner. When I saw the first picture of Dor Dor, I did imagine his owner must be a rich guy rearing Dor Dor on a beautiful yacht (you called it a raft, but it could be a figure of speech), with very artistic taste (because the photo was a real art piece). The dream is broken! ha ha so much fun writing the story….
Hi, doesn’t matter! I still have many interesting photos of Dor Dor to upload, accompanying with my text. Your Market and the WPC : Endurance have rendered me made a digression. I will be back on Dor Dor tomorrow!
