Over the weekend, parts of the country experienced a “once in a generation cold snap.” The subfreezing temperatures tested even the hardiest of Mainers, weather records were broken, and scientists at the Mount Washington Observatory in New Hampshire recorded it as the coldest place in the world. Thankfully temperatures have since warmed up and are […]
Imagine this scenario. A dog is playing with a squeaky toy in the living room. Dad walks in, sits on the couch, and places a plate with a cookie on the cushion beside him. Dad begins to scroll through endless TV options, ignoring said cookie. Suddenly he is broken from his scrolling trance, not by […]
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 my birthday! A special thank you to our friends Tori, Grant and Andy for telling us about this art project. Please note: we did this last weekend […]
It is 6:45 PM and cold out. Yet here I stand in my backyard staring up at the night sky hoping for a glimpse of yet another out of this world phenomenon. I may be a renowned Dog Ufologist, but I never said it was easy. It all started back in December 2012 when I […]
My birthday celebration continues with an out of this world gift that took 50,000 years to deliver! A comet known as C/2022 E3 (ZTF) will be zipping past earth for the first time since the ice age, and was last viewed by the naked eye by Neanderthals, Woolly Mammoths and Mastodons! This is the BEST […]
Thank you for all of the birthday well wishes yesterday! As we continue my weeklong celebration of turning 11, please join me for a stroll at one of my favorite parks, Fort Foster. Asa didn’t join us that day, because I wanted a little alone time with Mom and Dad. Don’t get me wrong, I […]
My order for snow has finally arrived! While I go out to play in it, I hope you don’t mind if I take you for another stroll down memory lane to Asa’s first winter with us. 2015 was one of the snowiest on record for Maine, and each day following his arrival it continued to […]
Yesterday marked the 8th anniversary of Asa joining our family. Today we are celebrating the 16th anniversary of Lemmy’s gotcha day! We’ve mentioned before that Lemmy was a very good boy, who emailed his Momma Butter on every holiday – both real and imaginary. For 7 years Lemmy faithfully shared with his beloved Mother his […]
We discovered that today is National Belly Laugh Day. It is also Asa’s gotcha day anniversary. Coincidence? I think not! For 8 years Asa has been making us laugh with his goofy Golden personality. So to celebrate we are giving Asa the spotlight to share his jokes. Asa, take it away! Knock, knock! Who’s there? […]
Let’s face it, Asa likes to play by his own rules. Rules that we may never understand. Case in point, I’ve written before about how to cure cabin fever we like to play nose work games, where our humans hide one of three scents in the house and we sniff them out. I am a […]
