3…2…1…Meltdown
I’m happy to report that my routine is slowly returning to normal now that Mom and Dad are starting to feel better. Oh sure they continue to rudely keep me up at night with their constant coughing, but as long as I get my meals on time and a decent walk I can cut them […]

Last Dog Standing
Mom and Dad are sick with the flu, and Chuck Billy is sulking. That just leaves me, Asa, to take care of them all! But don’t worry, I’ve got everything under control. Dad is hunkered down on the couch watching TV. Now I know he needs his rest. Therefore, I stand in front of him […]
Heel Not to Temptation
One of the reasons I enrolled Mom and Dad in obedience training is because they need to learn to resist temptation for their safety and ours. Sure we all know the “leave it” and “drop it” commands, but this is about avoiding getting into that situation in the first place. Take for example if we […]
The History of Presidential Pups
In honor of President’s Day, I would like to pay tribute to the important role of First Dog of the United States. These patriotic pups have stood by their owners’ side greeting foreign dignitaries, presiding over meetings in the Oval Office, and have occasionally provided comic relief to take reporters’ attention away from the President. […]
Lemmy’s Unrequited Love
This week we shared with you Chuck Billy’s secret romance, and Asa’s goofy attempt at finding love. So we thought we’d round out the week with Lemmy’s tale of unrequited love. Lemmy was only a few months old when he fell head over paws for Cora, the teacher’s pet at puppy kindergarten. Mom can’t remember […]
CPR and First Aid Class for Pets
Research done by the American Animal Hospital Association has shown that 60% of all animal hospital visits are emergency in nature and that 1 out of 4 more pet’s lives could be saved if just one first aid technique was delivered before veterinary care. Therefore, we at Living with a Golden highly recommend taking Healthy Pets […]

Catastrophic Meltdown
Well that was humiliating. I can’t believe I embarrassed myself so badly in front of Mom and Dad’s trainer, especially just when I was making such good progress with their obedience lessons. What was I thinking? Actually that was the problem, I wasn’t thinking! I wasn’t listening or focusing either. Instead I was ignoring my […]
Chuck Billy’s Type
Chuck Billy, the fierce Golden Wolf, destroyer of squeaky toys, has a secret. He has a soft spot for squeaky bunnies. Asa here. I made this surprising realization about Chuck Billy after months of secret observations. It all began back in April when Chuck Billy was smitten by a squeaky bunny. None of us thought […]
