Golden Shark Sighting
In honor of the Discovery Channel’s Shark Week, I thought I’d share with you the time Asa got mistaken for a Great White Shark. As you know from our Dog Friendly Places reviews, we love visiting Maine beaches. Well back in June 2015, we were very amused when following our visit to Wells Beach a […]
Area of Influence
I’m beginning to think Mom and Dad’s trainer is a cat person. Asa and I arrived at their second class full of exuberance to see their trainer. Would you believe he ignored us? No petting, no happily greeting us, not even a treat! And I know he had treats because I could smell them in […]
The Maine Experience
Our Grandma is from “away,” which loosely translates to anyplace other than Maine. Therefore, Asa and I wanted to give her a true Maine experience for her recent visit. Our original plan was to begin the day with a beach romp. However, Grandma’s insistence on sleeping past 6 AM and eating breakfast first made it […]
Our Namesakes
Today I’m giving Mom a rare day off, because Grandma is visiting for the weekend! However, I’m taking this opportunity to re-share my post on how I got my name. Lemmy, Asa and I are named after Grandpa’s ancestors who lived in the nineteenth century at the Isles of Shoals on a tiny island off […]

Mysterious Stranger with a Mustache
There’s a suspicious character lurking around our backyard. It is a mysterious stranger with an obvious fake mustache! But who is this winged intruder? Theory 1: He is a spy working with the Squirrels on some diabolical plot to steal the wild blueberries growing in our yard. Theory 2: He is in the witness protection […]
Should’ve Paid More Attention
Mom and Dad’s first training class didn’t go quite as expected. However, I believe we are on the right track to retraining them to be more responsive to our demands, oops I mean commands. Anyways, as soon as we arrived to class, the trainer immediately separated us! He tied Asa to one corner, me to […]
Chirps and Ladders
It was a quiet Saturday morning. Asa and I were enjoying our post-breakfast nap, and Mom had just settled in to watch a little TV. Then suddenly our tranquil bliss was ruined with the ear piercing chirp of a smoke alarm! Instantly I ran to the door! After all, everyone knows you’re suppose to get […]
Unappreciated Cows Day
Did you know earlier this week was Cow Appreciation Day? I’m way overdue in letting the Cows, who lived on our street, know how much I appreciated them. So late, in fact, they’ve left the neighborhood months ago! I truly do miss them. They were a huge part of our routine, and yet like most […]
