Dog Friendly Trails
Dog friendly hiking trails for you to explore!
I gave Asa one job to do with our Honey Bees, one job! And despite the fact it was critical to do it in a small window of time, he hired someone else to do it for him! It was the Queen Bee he was suppose to trick, not me! Ok, I’m getting ahead of […]
Happy 199th Birthday to the State of Maine! On March 15, 1820, Maine officially became the 23rd state in the Union. Now in the song, “Portland, Maine,” Tim McGraw may have sung, “Portland, Maine, I don’t know where that is, And I don’t want to know,” but he’s missing out on a lot of fun […]
Lend a helping paw to end pet food insecurity in Maine, while bidding on great items at the online auction to benefit No Bowl Empty Pet Food Pantry. No Bowl Empty Pet Food Pantry is a judgement free zone pet food pantry offering dog and cat food, cat litter, puppy pads, and other supplies free […]
Yesterday while Chuck Billy was complimenting my unique approach to training Mom and Dad, he neglected to mention another major milestone I’ve reached. It is clear in this photo that I’ve had another growth spurt. Slowly but surely my Dire Wolf prophecy is coming true! For those of you who may not have been following […]
Once again Asa is putting his own spin, or in this case bounce, on Mom and Dad’s training. So far in their lessons he commando crawled his way through down/stays to greet adoring fans, rolled on his back with floppy paws waving in the air during an informal sit/stay competition, and ran zoomies around the […]
Sometime between Saturday night and early Sunday morning someone or something stole an hour of our time. This senseless crime has disrupted the schedules of dogs across the country. Yes, we need to save daylight time. But not for the reasons that they want you to think! This isn’t about sunlight! This is about a […]
Wow, who would have guessed one errand could trigger such a roller coaster ride of emotions! Oh, it’s me Asa. Recently Dad took me to the Subaru dealership, but never told me the purpose for our errand. Instead, Dad just sat me down in the waiting room and put a Barkley “Driving Lesson” brochure in […]
The New Hampshire SPCA cordially invites older adults living with Alzheimer’s or dementia and their caregivers to visit their Alzheimer’s Cafe on the second Thursday of each month. The Alzheimer’s Cafe is a drop-in social gathering for individuals and their caregivers, where guests are welcome to interact with the small animals and birds that are […]
Over the weekend Dad and I decided to explore the Cottontail Rabbit habitat in our neighbor’s woods. Not sure what I was expecting to see. Probably some sort of cross between the Rankin and Bass Easter special of “Here Comes Peter Cottontail,” and the recent Netflix adaptation of Richard Adams’ Watership Down. Instead we saw […]
This week’s class was for the birds! No, I’m serious! There was a bird at Mom and Dad’s obedience class. And not just any bird, it talked! I don’t mean talking like the wild turkeys’ gobbling, a robin’s tweeting, or even like my annoying owl neighbor who is always asking, “who?” This bird could say […]
