In honor of National Concert Week, Asa decided to write a new song. After all if he’s going to someday fill stadiums, he’ll need plenty of songs to perform. This parody is dedicated to the best game ever, and he hopes it will inspire Moms everywhere to get out there and play with their dogs! […]
This weekend we welcomed a new colony of Honey Bees to our little apiary. We get our bees delivered to us thanks to a beekeeper who drives all the way to Georgia to purchase them, and then delivers them to families in New Hampshire and Maine. It’s easy. The Honey Bees are safely transported in […]
I’ve come to expect that Asa will put his own spin on Mom and Dad’s obedience lessons. However, never did I imagine that he’d be caught Golden pawed cheating on their training! Mom and Dad’s trainer and I have been working very hard these past few weeks teaching them how to do a proper heel […]
As National Poetry Month comes to a close, I’d like to share my poem on the choices dogs face every day in their lives. Should we bark at the obvious choice? Or should we choose a more ambiguous outcome? Either way a choice is inevitable. Two doors diverged in the hall, And sorry I could […]
Last week at approximately 2:43 PM I overheard Mom report to Dad that a section of our fence was knocked down. This sounds like a case for Detective Chuck Billy! Immediately Dad jumped to conclusions and blamed Mother Nature’s blustery attitude for the breach in our fence. However, I knew it couldn’t be that obvious. […]
As the Chief Executive Dog of this family, it is important that I surround myself with staff that I can trust to get things done correctly without me having to micromanage them. Therefore, in celebration of Administrative Professionals Day, I decided to review with Mom and Dad the skills they must maintain to keep our […]
This week’s lesson has Mom and I thoroughly confused. As you know, Asa and I have been working really hard at training Mom and Dad to always walk at a heel on our right side. They’ve mastered the concept on-leash, and we recently started working on it off-leash as well. But now Mom and Dad’s […]
Today’s Earth Day message is brought to you on behalf of honey bees and dogs. In the spring humans go through great lengths trying to have the “perfect” lawn. However, have you stopped to consider how imperfect perfection is, and what harm it is doing to the environment? By covering lawns and gardens in pesticides […]
Earlier this week Asa celebrated his favorite squeaky toy’s 2 year anniversary, which he happened to have received as an Easter gift. I also have a reason to celebrate a memorable Easter squeaky toy. Except that stuffie was not my friend. Three years ago I confronted the biggest squeaky bunny I’ve ever met, and showed […]
Five years ago on this date, at approximately 9:00 PM, our Lemmy crossed Rainbow Bridge. His courageous battle against Cushing’s Disease was over. We were blessed to be able to spend one final week with Lemmy. Mom and Dad both worked outside of the home back then. Where Mom worked, that week was the busiest […]
