Chuck Billy vs the Ginormous Bunny
Earlier this week Asa celebrated his favorite squeaky toy’s 2 year anniversary, which he happened to have received as an Easter gift. I also have a reason to celebrate a memorable Easter squeaky toy. Except that stuffie was not my friend. Three years ago I confronted the biggest squeaky bunny I’ve ever met, and showed […]
Saying Goodbye to Lemmy
Five years ago on this date, at approximately 9:00 PM, our Lemmy crossed Rainbow Bridge. His courageous battle against Cushing’s Disease was over. We were blessed to be able to spend one final week with Lemmy. Mom and Dad both worked outside of the home back then. Where Mom worked, that week was the busiest […]
Ms. Caterpillar’s Milestone
Asa here. While looking through old photos I made a startling realization. Yesterday was Ms. Caterpillar’s two year anniversary of being my friend. That’s like a bazillion years in stuffed animal time! I never dreamed when I received her as a gift from the Easter Bunny that Ms. Caterpillar would still be going strong two […]
Goldens and the Three Dogs
This week Mom and Dad’s trainer invited us to join him for a special class at the beach. The students were specially selected because we each had unique skills that we needed to work on with our humans. One dog, nicknamed “Cujo” by the trainer, is aggressive towards little dogs. Another dog, nicknamed “Dopey,” is […]
The Goldens Are Coming! The Goldens Are Coming!
Today is Patriots’ Day. A state holiday observed in Massachusetts and Maine commemorating the anniversary of the Battles of Lexington and Concord, the first battles of the American Revolutionary War, which took place on April 19, 1775. Throughout the day today in Lexington and Concord there will be reenactments of this epic battle. But for those of […]
Not My Lucky Day
Today is NOT my lucky day. There I was on morning patrol, minding my own business while doing my business. The trees were alive with the music of singing birds. There were Robins happily enjoying breakfast on the neighbor’s lawn. There was also a flock of Canadian Geese flying overhead. In short, after a week […]
Tick Talk at P.A.W.S.
Ticks are back! Well not that they ever fully went away in the first place. Research has found that despite the subfreezing temperatures this past winter, more ticks are surviving. This spring they are emerging from their secret lairs, hungry for blood and spreading diseases! But there are ways to protect yourself and your pups […]
My Brothers
Marc Brown once wrote, “Sometimes being a brother is even better than being a superhero.” Although I’m quick to point out my superiority, when it comes down to it, Lemmy and Asa are rather awesome too in their own unique ways. So to celebrate National Siblings Day, I’m going to compliment my brothers. Lemmy is […]
Training Buddy
Now that we’re finally getting a hint of spring in Maine, it’s time to take Mom and Dad’s training outside. Let’s face it, we’ve been working really hard all winter, but we’ve been cooped up practicing at the same old dog friendly stores and in our neighborhood. Mom and Dad know what we expect of […]
Not My Spot
As you can see from the attached picture I am not happy. Why am I not happy, you ask? Everyone knows this is not my side of the travel crate. However, either Asa was not paying attention when he jumped into the car, or this is one of his bad jokes, because currently he is […]
