In honor of Presidents’ Day I would like to pay tribute to George Washington’s dogs. As well as Gerald Ford’s dog who was the first Golden Retriever to live in the White House. It is estimated that during his lifetime President George Washington had approximately 50 dogs, representing almost every group of dog recognized by […]
I couldn’t help but notice that there’s been a lot on TV about how to celebrate Valentine’s Day. There are cooking shows on preparing the perfect meal, segments on the ideal location to spend the day, and ads for ways to show love ranging from jewelry to a new car. These are all nice, and […]
My little brother is a hero! There we were enjoying our daily romp in the woods when Asa spied a bit of red peeking up through the snow. I didn’t think it was anything, and kept right on walking. After all Asa is always showing me sticks and leaves he finds in the woods. But […]
A conversation between Chuck Billy and Asa as they drifted off to sleep last night: Wow brother, that was one amazing party. Best Super Bowl party ever, really. I can’t believe Mom and Dad thought if they took us early we could burn off some energy playing football with those kids. HA! Like they could […]
The Coyote Brothers are back. They came strolling into town sometime last week. No doubt looking for trouble and to have a good time. I heard them barking and howling last night. This morning I walked my property line with Dad and discovered they have been lurking in the woods just out of plain sight. […]
Asa here. By now I’m sure you’ve all read about my uncharacteristic behavior this past weekend. But before you pass judgement please let me tell my side of the story! After all this is America where all dogs are presumed innocent until proven guilty. Where to begin? Well I really have no excuse for eating […]
Wow, not sure what happened this weekend. My once obedient little brother is now a rebellious teenager. It all started innocently enough with him deciding to make a midnight snack out of his bed. Yep, the bed he was so proud of and waited so long to get now has a big hole in it. […]
Happy birthday to me! Tomorrow I’ll be 4 years old. Wow, 4 years old! Where did the time go? There’s a touch of white fur on my face these days, but it seems like just yesterday I was a little puppy following my big brother Lemmy everywhere. I’m feeling rather nostalgic today, so I hope […]
In addition to this week marking Asa’s arrival into our family, it is also the anniversary of Lemmy coming home. On January 25, 2007 Mom and Dad welcomed their first puppy into our family, and boy were they unprepared for this little guy! Don’t get me wrong, they didn’t get Lemmy on a whim. In […]
For our friends still digging out from this weekend’s storm, and as a reminder to us to appreciate this mild winter we are enjoying in New England, we’d like to share a video we made last winter, “Losing Asa.” It is about Chuck Billy’s harrowing adventure puppy sitting Asa during the Blizzard of 2015. Luckily […]
