Studies show that humans remember things better when set to a familiar tune. They also say repetition helps to retain information. Therefore rather than our usual post reminding folks that dogs must obey the leash rules, today I’m resharing Asa’s song on the topic. So grab those leashes and sing along to Asa’s parody of […]
In recent years many towns have changed their ordinances because of dogs not following the beach rules. Please keep the beaches of New Hampshire and Maine dog friendly by following the rules! Here is a list of dog friendly beaches, with the dates and times dogs are allowed on beaches in New Hampshire and Maine […]
Friends have asked us questions about beekeeping. So although once again we will be taking a break from beekeeping this summer, in honor of World Bee Day we are answering some of the more common questions that we get. Q: How did you get into beekeeping? A: We became beekeepers when I thought getting pets […]

Whether you’re graduating from college, high school, canine good citizen, or even puppy kindergarten, here are some wise words etched in stone to help guide you on your future path.

I’d like to give a shoutout to the smallest and newest veterinarian at my animal hospital, Dr. Spider DVM! There I was waiting in the exam room for my veterinarian, when all of a sudden this spider came walking in under the door from the restricted area where the doctor usually enters. Clearly this was […]
Not to brag, but I will. Who is a “lean, mean, hiking machine”? ME! That’s who! And unlike Asa, I didn’t need to do a grand entrance during my recent annual physical at the animal hospital. I walked in there like the mature dog that I am. Alright, I did notice the treat containers next […]
Asa, you do realize why I called you into my office today? We need to have a little chat about your job performance this weekend. As you know, we experienced a rare geomagnetic storm Friday night. Not just any geomagnetic storm, a G4 (Kp8), making the Aurora Borealis visible over most of the country. As […]
Well this is awkward. On Friday Asa and I agreed to disagree as to what is the perfect Mother’s Day gift. After reviewing Asa’s not so great ideas, we decided it would be best if we each picked out a gift for Mom. So you can’t begin to imagine our embarrassment when we realized we […]
Once again I put Asa in charge of picking out a Mother’s Day gift. However, based on the recommendations popping up in our social media timeline, I’m a little worried about what Asa has in mind. Take for example this vintage dress from the 1860s… Asa: Whoa! Don’t be so quick to judge! I found […]
In light of Asa’s surprise bath, he somehow talked me into sharing one of his B-list songs. As his manager, I tried to convince him that there was a reason why we never released this parody sooner. The chorus of this little ditty has been around for years. In fact, Asa sings it after every […]
