Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me a third time, and you seriously just need to stop! I can’t believe it happened again. Me, Chuck Billy the renowned Dog Ufologist, was abducted by a UFO at Dr. Doug’s veterinary hospital while investigating the Mystery of the Bloody Paw […]
To celebrate Maine’s Bicentennial, thus far this month we’ve shared fun facts about Maine’s state soft drink, Moxie, and official treat, Whoopie Pies. Today we turn our attention to Maine’s state fruit, the Wild Blueberry! Now when we say, “wild,” we truly mean wild! There are approximately 60,000 acres of this completely wild and natural […]
Pssst. It’s me, Asa. Come closer. I need to whisper because I don’t want Chuck Billy to hear. While he continues to recover from surgery, Chuck Billy has trusted me to be in charge of neighborhood patrol. Easy, right? I’ve walked up and down our street countless times spreading cheer. But something happened this weekend […]
Normally at Living with a Golden we share information about fundraising events that support animals. Whether it be shelters, service dogs, working dogs, or even the occasional cat cause, Asa and I are strong believers in lending a helping paw. But today we’d like to ask you to consider participating in a fundraiser that directly […]
While I continue to rest my paw, I’ve had a lot of time to just quietly sit and listen. Oh sure I could bark at trespassing squirrels, but then what? I can’t chase them, and they’d figure out really quickly that I’m all bark and no bite. Besides, sometimes it’s good to just sit quietly […]
In honor of Maine’s bicentennial here are some fun facts about Maine’s official treat, the Whoopie Pie. Now before we begin there are two things you must understand. First the Whoopie Pie is Maine’s official state “treat.” Not to be confused with Maine’s official state dessert which is the Wild Blueberry Pie. Second, although it […]
I can’t help but wonder what happened to me on Wednesday? It had all the telltale signs of an UFO abduction, including missing period of time and an unexplained medical procedure performed on me. We know these classic signs, thanks to Betty and Barney Hill, who were the first to publicly report being abducted by […]
Thank you to everyone for your well wishes! Typing with one paw makes it difficult to respond to each of you individually. Please know though that I am completely awestruck by all your love, prayers, and kind words of support. Having Asa as my nurse is also motivating me to heal as quickly as possible! […]
At approximately 6:30 AM on the morning of September 2, 2020 after returning from neighborhood patrol, I received a report by concerned citizen Mom that bloody paw prints were found in the living room. This sounds like a case for Detective Chuck Billy! I immediately secured the area so that myself and my assistant, Asa, […]
As we continue to celebrate Maine’s 200th anniversary, today I’m sharing fun facts about our official soft drink, Moxie! Created by Mainer, Dr. Augustin Thompson in 1876, this bitter drink was originally marketed as patent medicine called “Moxie Nerve Food.” Thompson wasn’t too far from the truth there. The main ingredient of Moxie, gentian root […]
