The social event of the year is finally here! This is our third annual family reunion hosted by my brother Duncan and my little sister Dea, and boy do they know how to host a party! There is swimming, treats, games, treats, doggie spa, and did I mention treats? It is a dog’s paradise! This […]
Dad is coming home today! He has been away for work, but is due back home this afternoon. Although I missed him greatly, I have to say I handled this situation a lot better than Lemmy ever did. You see, my older brother Lemmy was a bit dramatic, and would methodically go through the five […]

On Saturday, August 15, 2015, hundreds of shelters across the country are taking part in Clear the Shelters Day, a nationwide push to find homes for pets in need.

Now that Asa is the ripe old age of 8 months, I need to advance his homeschooling beyond the fundamentals of reading, writing and arithmetic. So today we are going to do our first science lesson! I decided it would be best to start with a simple chemistry experiment: Water + Dirt = Mud. I […]
You may have noticed from our Dog Friendly Places videos that we use head halters on our dogs. But often when we are out and about people have asked us why our Goldens are wearing muzzles! Head halters are not muzzles, rather they make it easier to control our dogs when they get excited in […]
Sssshhhh, come in closer, I need to talk to you about something important. But the Aliens are listening so I need to whisper. I tried to warn you in the earlier post Proof of My Attempted Alien Abduction, but my call to action obviously was not taken seriously. But since April I have even more […]
