Snow Day
We interrupt our regularly scheduled blog post to share with you photos of Asa and myself playing in the snow. Here’s a fun fact. The time it takes for you to scroll through these six photos is about as long as we were outside. It’s freezing out! Tune in tomorrow for more adventures of Living […]

Weird Week in Maine
As a renowned Dog Ufologist, even I admit this has been a really weird week in Maine! On Wednesday a minor 2.3 magnitude earthquake rattled folks living just north of Rangeley Lake. Then on Wednesday evening a meteor was spotted over Ellsworth Harbor Park. Both relatively minor events on their own. However, there’s more! Earlier […]

Coyotes on the Prowl
The Coyote Brothers came strolling through our yard again. No doubt they were taking a shortcut after visiting that new Cottontail Rabbit restaurant that opened up in the thicket not too far from our property. Like most ne’er-do-wells, Coyotes don’t like showing their faces in daylight, and instead prefer do their deeds under the cover […]

Not Cool Mother Nature
Dear Mother Nature, your weather lately has made our tails droop, not cool. In fact that’s precisely the problem. The weather has not been cool enough for snow one day, and then bitterly cold the next. Lately it has rained more than snowed, then when it’s not raining the temperatures drop making our backyard an […]

Mom and Dad’s Obedience School Refresher
Now that things are quieting down again, it’s time to resume Mom and Dad’s obedience training! Asa and I once again enrolled our parents for classes with their trainer who specializes in “helping dogs with human problems.” I have to admit though, they have certainly made a lot of progress since we started their training […]
