Today is National Pet Day, and it occurred to me dogs play a really important role in our communities. Namely if it wasn’t for us, our humans wouldn’t know their neighbors! Take for example our neighbor Charlie. He was so excited when he moved into the neighborhood that he couldn’t wait to introduce himself. We […]
Dad’s been working really hard lately. Perhaps a bit too hard. He forgot the commands we taught him! The other day, Dad spent the entire morning using his dictation software to write a report for work. Needing a bit of a break to clear his mind, he happily leashed us up to take a quick […]
Dear Mother Nature and Punxsutawney Phil, We couldn’t help but notice that you two are having a bit of a disagreement over the arrival of Spring. We distinctly remember Punxsutawney, that back in February on Groundhog’s Day you predicted an early Spring. You were even well on your way to surpassing that goal with an […]
The Dynamic Duo strikes again! This time we saved a fellow Golden Retriever! On Saturday we went to a race to cheer on Potsie and Thurston’s Mom. After finding a good spot to watch the runners, all of a sudden darting across a very busy road came this Golden Retriever headed straight for us! What […]
Har! Har! The joke is on you! For over a year now we have been bringing you our thoughts on Living with a Golden. But time for us to reveal the truth – we’re not Golden Retrievers! We’re actually Bulldogs! We thought for sure you’d catch on to our little joke early. Like anyone would […]
We saved a life on our morning walk! Seriously, I saved a life! We were on neighborhood patrol when out of the shadows came running a small dog. We had never seen him before, and he was equally surprised to see us. You know how excitable Jack Russell Terriers can be. So despite it being […]
Yesterday, March 27th, marked the four year anniversary of me coming to live with Mom, Dad and Lemmy. I can still vividly remember my excitement when I left the whelping box, and started on that long car ride home to meet my new big brother. I dreamed of this moment! But as with all things, […]
Today I received a card wishing me, “Hope, Wonder and Celebration this Easter.” Well why should it just be on Easter? I experience Hope, Wonder and Celebration each and every day! All dogs do! I start each morning filled with Hope about all the possibilities that the day ahead holds. And despite my mature age, […]
“In my Easter bonnet, with all the duct tape upon it, I’ll be the silliest puppy in the Easter Parade…” Enough with the singing already! As you can see, Asa has to wear the cone of shame. But once again, he is a happy fool, and oblivious to the seriousness of the situation. Instead he […]
I looked Death in the eyes…unblinking plastic eyes…and survived! Recently Mom told me that they were taking us to the mall for photos with the Easter Bunny. No big deal, I thought. I have cousins who are rabbits, and they tend to be quiet little fellows. Besides, this would give me a chance to voice […]
