I bet you’re wondering why I’m hanging out in Asa’s crate today. It is because my disgusting little brother struck again. You see during the night he had an upset tummy while in his crate. At first I thought nothing of it, because after all he was safely locked in with it. What harm could […]

If you’re reading this, can you please let me know if it is ok to come out of my bunker? Yesterday on the evening news I saw that they were predicting a Blood Red Moon for last night. To be honest, I didn’t listen to the whole story. As soon as the anchorman said the […]
Yesterday Mom wrote about the upcoming Green Mountain Iron Dog Competition. But what she didn’t mention is that my brother Lemmy was an Iron Dog Champion!

Stratham Hill Park in Stratham, New Hampshire is very deceiving. From the parking lot it looks like your average recreational area with designated sports fields and playground. But follow the trail to the woods, and you’ll find a variety of dog friendly hiking trails to explore. The trails range from wide smooth paths for easy […]
My silly little brother would like to share with you today his major “discovery.” So without further ado, here’s Asa: Recently on my evening walk I made a huge discovery – tennis balls grow on trees! We were visiting a neighbor when my eyes locked on this awesome tree growing in the far corner of […]
The following is a public service announcement from Chuck Billy and Asa: We’d like to talk with you today about a serious topic – Retrieving.
