Asa’s Gotcha Anniversary
Three years ago today my world changed for the better. My little brother Asa joined our family! Never in my wildest dreams did I think that little ball of fluff would grow into my best friend and that we’d go on so many wonderful tail wagging adventures together. Thank you Asa for being my brother! […]

Winter is the perfect time to explore Portland Head Light at dog friendly Fort Williams Park in Cape Elizabeth, Maine.

My Spot
Everyone knows that when being petted, I prefer sitting on the left side of the person while Asa sits on the right. However, Asa has a hard time remembering this unwritten rule, and I am forced to remind him on a daily basis. Every evening it is the same routine. While Mom tidies up in […]
Dire Wolf’s Growth Spurt
Slowly but surely my little brother is becoming a full-grown Dire Wolf! For those of you who may be new to Living with a Golden, when Asa was a puppy he predicted that someday he would grow up to be a fierce Dire Wolf, last seen in prehistoric times and on HBO. I just laughed […]

This 1.25 mile path is an easy winter walk for dogs, and a wonderful reminder of nature’s beauty in all seasons. The paved walkway […]
Our Midnight Escapade
Last night started off like any other. Mom kissed us good night then headed upstairs, while Asa and I settled in to sleep. However, sometime around midnight Asa woke me up. Something was wrong! But wrong in a good way, Mom left the gate open! Due to Asa’s insomnia and “up all night, party every […]
Looks Can Be Deceiving
Mom, I can explain! I know this looks like I’m bullying Asa, but looks can be deceiving! I have an absolutely credible reason for what you just saw. Ummm, let’s see, I was watching Star Trek with Dad and wanted to see if that Vulcan Mind Meld trick really works! You always say Asa and […]
