Chuckit Envy
Dear Maddie, I would like to apologize for my little brother’s behavior at the beach on Saturday. That was really nice of you and your Dad to invite us to play fetch. Asa didn’t mean to dominate the game. It’s just that for the longest time now we’ve seen dogs playing at the beach with […]

3.5 Seconds
Mom tries, she really does. But she forgets who she is dealing with sometimes. Saturday afternoon Mom decided to get us all fluffy and good looking for our Father’s Day celebration with Grandpa on Sunday. She even splurged and bought the special lavender and mint dog shampoo that Grandma says makes us extra fluffy. She scrubbed […]

Of Mice and Spiders
I wanted to give you an update on our adventures with the Wolf Spider and Field Mice from last week. First off, I’d like to sincerely apologize to the Wolf Spider. Turns out it wasn’t a male, but a female…expecting a litter of pups! I am honored that she chose our poop barrel to lay […]

Sting Operation
The criminal investigation into the breaking and entering of our Honeybee hives all started innocently enough a week ago. One morning we noticed the mite boards on our beehives were pushed out. Dad thought it was just the wind, because the night before was very blustery. Mom worried the Wolf Spider had something to do […]
