In case you haven’t noticed, Mom and Dad are the ultimate Helicopter Dog Parents. So you can’t begin to understand my astonishment when I overheard them asking a friend to check in on us while they were away for a rare night out in Boston. I’ve waited for this opportunity for three years! Don’t get […]
We are gathered here today to wish Winter a fond farewell! Yes, there is snow in the forecast for Maine this week, but all good things must come to an end. So today we wish you, Winter, adieu and farewell! It seems like just five months ago we were all anticipating the first snowfall of […]
Thought I’d share a little Monday Motivation with you today, about a card I received wishing me, “Hope, Wonder and Celebration this Easter.” Well why should it just be one day? I experience Hope, Wonder and Celebration each and every day! All dogs do! I start each morning filled with Hope about all the possibilities […]
Ever since Asa posed for a selfie with the Easter Bunny this week, all he’s been talking about is how they are now best friends. He even has this ridiculous idea that after the Easter Bunny is done with his duties on Sunday, the two of them will go on a road trip together and […]
My Gotcha Day Anniversary reminiscing continues! For the past few years I’ve shared with you all the great Dog Friendly Places that Asa and I visit. Then yesterday Dad asked, “what was Chuck Billy’s first big adventure?” Mom searched our photo archives. Was it a beach? Or a trail? It was both! My first big […]
Six years ago on this date, I spent my last day in the whelping box with my siblings, before setting out on my grand adventure! I’m feeling rather nostalgic, so I thought I’d take out my old puppy photos and reminisce about my early days. I was one of 9 siblings, 5 boys and 4 […]
Asa here. I can’t believe I missed my opportunity to definitively prove to Chuck Billy that I’m a Dire Wolf! Ever since I was a puppy, I knew I was more than just a ruggedly handsome Golden Retriever. I’m a Dire Wolf, the fierce prehistoric wolf of legendary fame on HBO! However, despite all my […]
As a Dog beekeeper, I find Walmart’s foray into the world of Bees ridiculous! Recently Walmart filed a patent for “autonomous robotic bees,” to be used as “pollination drones.” According to their patent application, small unmanned aerial vehicles, or drones, would be programmed to go from plant to plant collecting pollen and then go on to […]
Asa here. Chuck Billy is looking a bit green this morning. No, not because of his St. Patrick’s Day celebration. Chuck Billy is green with envy, and I may have something to do with it. Last week during the snowstorm a reporter saw the picture I tweeted of me looking out the window at the […]
Yesterday this memory of a conversation with Mom’s Great Aunt appeared on my timeline. It reminded me that this recent string of snowstorms may actually be a blessing in disguise. Great Aunt Dottie is the wise matriarch of our family, and even I, brilliant dog that I am, can learn from her. She no longer […]
