Double Dog Duty
Asa here. My apologies for not posting over the weekend. Chuck Billy needed my help taking care of Mom after her surgery. Oh sure he likes to portray himself as a take charge kind of dog, but to be honest he gets stressed easy. So Chuck Billy’s been sitting by Mom’s side whimpering. Even Dad […]

Walking Day or Nighttime
Asa here. First off, I’d like to report that Mom’s surgery went well and she is resting comfortably. To help her feel better I thought I’d share a song dedicated to Mom’s two favorite activities, listening to Bon Jovi and taking us for walks. Don’t worry Mom, you’ll be up again in the pre-dawn hours […]

I’m happy to report that Mom and Dad’s first Canine Good Citizen class went very well. I admit though, I feel like the weird old guy. My classmates are all younger than me. Ok, they’re a lot younger than me. Also they’ve all been through the obedience classes with this trainer, so some of my […]

Here I Go Again on My Own
Sorry Asa, but Mom and Dad have gone as far as they can with you. It is time for me to lead them further to receive their good citizen status! Oh sure you’ve worked really hard this past year, but…well…how can I put this nicely? You seem to be a bad influence on Mom and […]

Don’t Eat that Cookie
While visiting with our Great Uncle recently, he told us all about the dog he and Grandpa had when they were boys. By the sounds of it, Cookie had a very good sense of humor. For you see he helped Grandpa pull a very funny trick on our Great Grandpa. Great Grandpa insisted that every […]
