Since Asa’s arrival I have been hard at work teaching him what are acceptable items to sink his razor sharp teeth into and what are not. Mom and Dad should really appreciate my efforts because so far…knock on wood…we’ve had very few accidents. But then today Dad goes ahead and puts the most tempting toy […]
Puppies are disgusting! You wouldn’t believe what he did this week! Warning: Those with a squeamish stomach may want to stop reading this post and watch one of our light hearted videos instead. Ok, so we just came inside from a lovely walk followed by a game of fetch. As I was settling down to […]
According to my calendar today is “Puppy Day.” So without further ado I’m turning over today’s post to our resident puppy, Asa. Today I would like to address the abhorrent double standards I see within our pack. Yes, I am aware of the pack hierarchy: Dad is alpha, Mom is omega, and myself and Chuck […]
Har, Har Mother Nature, very funny. Today is the first day of Spring, despite the fact that temps are hovering just above freezing and there is snow in the forecast for this evening. But you’re not fooling me. You are playing Hide & Seek with Spring! Game on! As we headed outside, I told Asa […]
Dearest Chuck Billy, We understand how Asa’s behavior can be annoying, and appreciate your patience with him.

This is an open letter to my Mom and Dad about Asa’s behavior lately.

The world is a dangerous place, especially for curious puppies. Don’t believe me? Then check out this mind boggling list of poisons put together by the Pet Poison Helpline. Now I have to be honest, when I first saw this list I wanted to put my little brother in a bubble. But then I started […]
I’m not sure how it happened, but somehow I’m now invisible when out in public. I started noticing it around the time Asa joined our family. We’d be out and about and people would be cooing over him, but somehow no one seemed to notice me. I used to be the center of attention everywhere […]
It’s time to circle the wagons, our homestead is in danger! I knew as soon as Mom let us out that something was different. I immediately recognized the scent in the air, and one quick survey of the wood line confirmed my suspicions – there was a coyote in my territory! Now I’ve seen coyotes […]
