the dogs of Isla Holbox.....



Since all of Isla Holbox is sand there are no vegetables grown here. But the sea is a mighty provider of all sorts of high quality protein so there is plenty to eat for everybody. The people here love dogs. The dogs here are not the skinny, mangy types that you often see in parts of Mexico.The dogs of Isla Holbox are well fed, groomed and often sporting jackets and ribbons in their hair. Even though there are dogs absolutely everywhere, the streets are clean and rarely do you see unscooped dog excrement.  The kind and happy villagers are always raking their island and many go barefoot all of the time.......
