It’s been over a week since Asa was abducted by a UFO while visiting Dr. Doug at the animal hospital. It had all the telltale signs of an Alien abduction – Asa was missing for hours and returned home with obvious signs that a medical procedure was conducted on him. So today, I, Chuck Billy […]
Seven years ago, on April 18, 2014, our brother, Lemmy, crossed Rainbow Bridge, at the age of 7 years old. Before he joined our family, Mom and Dad spent 7 years planning for Lemmy. So today we are reflecting on 7 years of preparation, 7 years of love, and 7 years of reflection. Longtime Coming: […]
Last week I shared how I surprised even myself by remembering my old nose work training, in “My Nose Still Knows.” Well a few dogs asked about my training and certification. So today I thought I’d share this post from 2016 where I explained my road to becoming a champion! Ok, I admit now that […]
It’s no secret that Mom comes from a long line of nervous cleaners. When Grandma is worried about something, she cleans the house, just like Great Nana did, and Great Great Nana before her. So needless to say with Asa’s surgery this week, Mom has been on a cleaning frenzy. There’s no stopping her from […]
Thank you for all of your outpouring of love and positive energy for my surgery yesterday! It was truly humbling to know that you all were keeping Dr. Doug, my family, and me in your thoughts and prayers. Thank You! The surgery went great and I’m home now! I had a peaceful night’s sleep, and […]

Not to brag, but I will, my nose still knows! It’s been about a year since we’ve played any scent work games inside the house, and neither Mom nor Dad can remember when was the last time we played it outside. But despite the lapse, I showed them I’m still just as good as back […]
Today is National Walking Day! We double dog dare all pups to leash up their humans and take them for a walk! Spring is a great time to recommit to taking your humans out for a daily walk, to help them get healthier and raise awareness about the importance of physical activity for both them […]
Out there lurking among the tall grass and decaying leaves waiting to pounce is a nemesis to dogs even worse than squirrels – Ticks! Worst yet, it is virtually impossible to avoid them. Even dogs who only spend a brief time outside can pick up a hungry Tick. So unless you want to become a […]
Recently we received a letter from the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife asking if they could take a walk in our woods to count the New England Cottontail Rabbits living here.
