We have finally reached the point in Mom and Dad’s training that I’ve been waiting for, polite leash walking! The reason we enrolled Mom and Dad for summer school was because of their refusal to follow Asa and myself when on a leash. There have been many times where we see a friend to greet, […]
It has become painfully obvious that Mom and Dad are lost without us. Saturday was a rainy day, and going on an adventure with us was out of the question. I like mud as much as the next dog, but it looked like monsoon season out there. So Mom said, “let’s be wild and crazy […]
In their first training class Mom and Dad were confused by what their trainer said about being too bonded. He, of course, meant Mom and Dad should sleep in separate beds. However, since then they’ve been putting myself and Asa in separate crates at night. Normally I’d point out the error in their ways, but […]
As a renowned Dog Ufologist, I am asking for your assistance with my latest research. When you look up to the night sky, do you ever get the feeling that we are not alone in the universe? Spoiler alert. We’re not. Aliens are closer than we think! In fact they may already be here and […]
I’m beginning to question if Mom and Dad are taking their training serious. Asa and I are rocking their sit and stay training. I admit at first it was difficult to watch Mom and Dad wander farther and farther away from us, while we just sat there. I may have even panicked a few times […]
After taking 113,476 photos, Mom’s camera broke! This camera was practically an appendage. If it wasn’t in Mom’s hand, it was nearby, usually in her right front pocket. Mom by no means considers herself a photographer. Instead, she fancies herself our family’s historian, documenting good times and sad, ordinary and extraordinary days, and of course […]
This week we’ve seen tweets about blistering hot temperatures across Europe and the United States. We’ve also read posts reminding us that there are only 5 shopping months until Christmas. This inspired Asa to combine the two and write a duet with Mom dedicated to summer and set to the tune of the Holiday classic, “Baby, […]
In honor of the Discovery Channel’s Shark Week, I thought I’d share with you the time Asa got mistaken for a Great White Shark. As you know from our Dog Friendly Places reviews, we love visiting Maine beaches. Well back in June 2015, we were very amused when following our visit to Wells Beach a […]
I’m beginning to think Mom and Dad’s trainer is a cat person. Asa and I arrived at their second class full of exuberance to see their trainer. Would you believe he ignored us? No petting, no happily greeting us, not even a treat! And I know he had treats because I could smell them in […]
Our Grandma is from “away,” which loosely translates to anyplace other than Maine. Therefore, Asa and I wanted to give her a true Maine experience for her recent visit. Our original plan was to begin the day with a beach romp. However, Grandma’s insistence on sleeping past 6 AM and eating breakfast first made it […]
