There we were all snug in our beds enjoying a peaceful night’s sleep. When all of a sudden Asa made that one sound that can wake Mom from a deep slumber. He was about to vomit. Down the stairs, two at a time, Mom came with a bound, determined to save the living room rug! […]
Dear Mother Nature, we need to have a little talk. We couldn’t help but notice that it is December here in Maine, and all we’re suppose to receive today is a dusting to a couple inches of snow. Yet our friends all around the country and beyond are already enjoying lots and lots of snow. […]
Today Asa and I would like to speak to you about a serious subject: Dog Bed Spontaneous Combustion. It is a little known fact that dog beds can spontaneously combust…usually during the wee hours of the night or during working hours when no Humans are present to witness this catastrophic event, thus leading to dogs being […]
The safety of my family depends on a squeaky toy! Ok I have to admit Asa’s performance review last week was a real eye opener. What a slacker! Asa actually thinks that getting us to play and have fun is somehow contributing to the wellbeing of the family. Nowhere in that interview does he mention his […]
Asa’s birthday celebration made me nostalgic. Tomorrow would have been my big brother Lemmy’s 10th birthday. It was on his 5th birthday that my coming was foretold, so I’m not sure what he is complaining about in this email to his mother? Ok, I do agree playing pin the tail on the Golden was a […]
People, please relax! I know you’re all excited that today is my birthday, and you all want to get me a present. But there’s no reason to line up before dawn at stores across the country and push and shove your way to finding me the perfect gift! Yes, it’s flattering that to celebrate my […]
Henry David Thoreau clearly understood what it means to be a dog. Thoreau once wrote: “I am grateful for what I am and have. My thanksgiving is perpetual. It is surprising how contented one can be with nothing definite – only a sense of existence… O how I laugh when I think of my vague […]
For those of you hitting the road this Thanksgiving, here is Asa’s updated version of Over the River and Through the Woods for you to sing on your journey. From our family to yours, safe travels and Happy Thanksgiving! Over the river and through the woods, To Grandmother’s house we go; The GPS knows back […]
I can’t believe Adolescent Asa will be turning two years old this Friday! Time for another performance review! I’ll be asking my little brother the same questions as I did for his One Year Performance Review. And as always, please remember the opinions expressed by Asa do not necessarily reflect those of Living with a […]
Dad means well, he really does. But I’m a dog, and even I’m baffled by his poor sense of judgement. Would you believe thanks to Dad’s silly mistake, Asa almost lost his Imaginary Friend? After Dad accidentally broke the stove, he decided a new one would be the “perfect” birthday gift for Mom. Unbelievable! At […]
