For a while now we’ve been sharing Asa’s journey with Golden Retriever Pigmentary Uveitis. Today we’re sharing my recent excellent annual eye exam. Spoiler alert: my ophthalmologist called me “perfect!” But of course I’m perfect, I’m Chuck Billy! I have to admit my appointment got off to an awkward start. Asa’s friend, Dan the vet […]
Love is in the air this February! We all know that Chuck Billy loves playing fetch. We also know that for years he has insisted on only playing with his one true love, a bacon scented squeaky ball. However, what we didn’t know is when did this love affair with this specific ball begin? Well […]
A birthday isn’t complete without a game that also acts as a party favor to remind you of that special celebration. And that’s exactly what we did for Chuck Billy’s birthday! We started this tradition last year, and it was so much fun that we repeated it again. Here’s how we did it, if you’d […]
Thank you to everyone for wishing Chuck Billy a happy 12th birthday yesterday! Your kindness really made his day extra special! We are still reading through all your sweet comments on social media. So while we continue to catch up, here is a special song that I like to sing to my big brother. Ever […]
The skies over New England have been active lately. From Connecticut, New Hampshire, to Maine, and even in my back yard, there have been sightings of unusual flying objects. Note I said “unusual” and not unidentified, because this Dog Ufologist knows exactly what’s going on in the skies, and the reason why it is happening […]
Earlier this week, we celebrated Asa’s 9th Gotcha Day Anniversary. However, I have to admit that early on I wasn’t so sure about his Golden pedigree. Oh sure we’ve met his “parents” Momma Sage and Daddy Spenser, but I just can’t shake the feeling that Asa is actually part polar bear! Or perhaps a yeti? […]
Yesterday was the 9th Anniversary of Asa’s Gotcha Day. Today is the 17th Anniversary of when our big brother Angel Lemmy came home on January 25, 2007. Lemmy was their first dog. After years of planning, as much as Mom and Dad thought they were prepared to welcome a puppy into their family, Lemmy soon […]
Today is the 9th Anniversary of when Asa came home to live with us! I can still remember that day as if it were yesterday. We got up extra early that morning, and Dad took me for a walk while Mom did one last sweep puppy proofing the house. We all anxiously watched the weather […]
On the afternoon of Thursday, January 18, 2024, a witness reported unusual activity in our kitchen. There was kibble vomit on the floor in front of the crate, and Asa was feverishly working to hide the evidence. He was soon joined by an accomplice also trying to cover up this crime against kibble, Chuck Billy. […]
Yesterday, January 21st, was Squirrel Appreciation Day. Dogs, would you believe there was a time they were more than simply appreciated? People welcomed squirrels into their homes as pets! Yes, you read that correctly. Even more shocking, according to numerous sources, during the 1700s and 1800s squirrels were the most popular pet in the United […]
