This week is the one year anniversary of Asa coming to live with us. Time for another performance review! I’ll be asking my little brother the same questions as I did for his First 100 Days Review and Six Month follow up: How do you see your role in this family? Excellent question! I see […]
Today is national “Answer Your Cat’s Questions Day!” So to celebrate Asa and myself will each answer a question from our kitty cousins, Koloa and DeNiro. For those of you wondering why we didn’t also ask Misty, well to be honest she scares us. And since we spend a lot of time at her house, […]
Recently I realized that my inner wolf is getting a bit soft, and that I had completely abandoned my duty of homeschooling Asa on tapping into his innate hunting instincts. So we rounded up Dad and headed off into our woods for a hike. It didn’t take long for me to catch scent that there […]
January is a good time to remind dogs of their important role in caring for their humans. It is good to have a consistent plan to meet their needs, and this holds especially true during the winter months. Exercise: Humans need plenty of exercise to burn off extra energy otherwise it could lead to unwanted […]
This is an outrage! I can’t believe Naruto lost his lawsuit! Please excuse my outburst. For those not familiar with Naruto’s legal battle, let me explain.

Although I’m grateful for my Mom’s efforts to type my thoughts, I do not appreciate her editorial comments. But I digress. The reason for this letter is that I am dissatisfied with your lack of Dog as […]
This week marks the one year anniversary of my website, Living with a Golden! Hard to believe it was just a year ago that I introduced myself to the world. I wasn’t even three years old yet! I began my blog as a way to chronicle my life with my new little brother, Asa, hence […]
To be honest I haven’t been following the Presidential campaign. Until dogs are granted the right to vote, I really have no interest in politics. But that all changed recently when I read that Hillary Clinton believes “Aliens may have visited us already.” This changes everything! It was one thing for Josh Groban to tweet […]
Asa is experiencing another rite of passage. He received his first big boy bed for his crate! That is an important milestone for a dog. One that he’ll never forget. It means that Mom and Dad trust him not to have accidents and that he is mature enough to not play with it, or worse […]
I overheard Mom talking with a friend about their New Year’s Resolutions. They talked about changes to their diet, getting more exercise, and being more positive in the year ahead. Well those are all admirable goals, but their approach to it is all wrong. They don’t need to follow new diet trends, buy a gym […]
