Ok, a word of clarification that Mom and Dad’s training class isn’t dismissed. However, if Mom and Dad’s trainer thinks he can arbitrarily dismiss our favorite release word, he has another thing coming! Their trainer thinks it would be less confusing for Mom and Dad if they change our release word from “ok” to “dismissed.” […]
We interrupt our regularly scheduled blog post to share with you photos of Asa and myself playing in the snow. Here’s a fun fact. The time it takes for you to scroll through these six photos is about as long as we were outside. It’s freezing out! Tune in tomorrow for more adventures of Living […]
As a renowned Dog Ufologist, even I admit this has been a really weird week in Maine! On Wednesday a minor 2.3 magnitude earthquake rattled folks living just north of Rangeley Lake. Then on Wednesday evening a meteor was spotted over Ellsworth Harbor Park. Both relatively minor events on their own. However, there’s more! Earlier […]
Dogs, did you know food has flavor and texture? Seriously, it does! I can’t believe I’ve been gulping it down all these years, and never noticed that until I got this new bowl. It all started a few months ago when I started vomiting every so often. Dr. Doug thought I may have developed a […]
Thus far in Mom and Dad’s obedience training we have focused on their polite leash walking and how to deal with mine and Asa’s celebrity status when human fans approach. Now we’re going to focus on training Mom and Dad on the polite greeting of dogs. However, it seems that Mom and Dad’s trainer and […]
With temperatures continuing to hover well below freezing, and no substantial snow in sight in the forecast for southern Maine, it appears Mother Nature has ignored my recent request. Therefore, Asa is taking a different approach by writing a catchy song to the tune of “Winter Wonderland,” that will perhaps get Mother Nature to realize […]
The Coyote Brothers came strolling through our yard again. No doubt they were taking a shortcut after visiting that new Cottontail Rabbit restaurant that opened up in the thicket not too far from our property. Like most ne’er-do-wells, Coyotes don’t like showing their faces in daylight, and instead prefer do their deeds under the cover […]
Dear Mother Nature, your weather lately has made our tails droop, not cool. In fact that’s precisely the problem. The weather has not been cool enough for snow one day, and then bitterly cold the next. Lately it has rained more than snowed, then when it’s not raining the temperatures drop making our backyard an […]
Now that things are quieting down again, it’s time to resume Mom and Dad’s obedience training! Asa and I once again enrolled our parents for classes with their trainer who specializes in “helping dogs with human problems.” I have to admit though, they have certainly made a lot of progress since we started their training […]
As everyone knows, my motto is “Fetch is Life!” Now most may assume I learned how to play the best game ever from my big brother, Lemmy. However that is far from the truth. You see Lemmy took a different approach and enjoyed playing “Har, Har, I have the Ball and You Don’t.” Those rules […]
