Dog Friendly Trails
Dog friendly hiking trails for you to explore!
Fetch Aficionados Rejoice!
Fetch aficionados rejoice! After months…well maybe just weeks…our long suffering neglect is finally over! We got a Chuckit Ball Launcher! It all began innocently enough with Asa happily watching other dogs play fetch with this coveted toy on the beach. His longing looks did not go unnoticed, and we were often invited to play. As […]

My Little Brother Is A Genius
Once again I begin this post by telling everyone not to worry. I’m ok. In fact, I’m more than ok, I’m great! Asa took our little conversation to heart, and is finally helping me while I wear this ridiculous cone of shame. He even went above and beyond by showing impressive problem solving skills. The […]
Eliot Boat Basin, Eliot, ME
The Eliot Boat Basin in Eliot, Maine is a surprisingly interesting place for dog friendly hiking. On the surface it appears to be your average boat launch with amenities including large pavilion for events, covered picnic tables, playground and restrooms. But follow the trailhead behind the playground, and you’ll find an approximately one mile trail that […]
Must I Do Everything?
Ok before anyone worries, I’m fine. I’m wearing the cone of shame because of a hot spot. An annual summer event around here. Anyways, while wearing this foolish thing, I was hoping Asa would step up and help around the house. But yet again my optimism turned to disappointment when a stranger appeared at our […]
The Birds and the Bees
This morning Asa asked me to tell him about the birds and the bees! My paws started sweating. I was completely unprepared for his question. That is until I looked outside and realized he was referring to the wild turkeys who live behind our bee hives, and he just wanted an update on both. Three […]
Clear the Shelters Day 2016
Animal shelters across the country will come together this Saturday, July 23, 2016 for Clear the Shelters Day, a nationwide pet adoption initiative that aims to connect animals in need with loving new families. Animal shelters, including many in New England, have agreed to cut the cost of adoption and be open for extended hours […]
Home Alone
After seeing The Secret Life of Pets, a young fan of Living with a Golden asked how Asa and I spend our time home alone. Normally I like to keep our private life…well private. But since Max and the other stars of this movie felt it was ok to break the unwritten rule that dogs […]
Eastern Trail, Scarborough, ME
The Scarborough section of the Eastern Trail is a scenic place to walk your dog. Stretching from Scarborough through Old Orchard Beach to Saco, Maine, this off-road section of the Eastern Trail offers 8 miles of easy walking. Although our dogs would love to hike the entire 16 miles round trip, today we limited them […]
Born to Be Wild
I finally understand what Chuck Billy has been trying to tell me about answering the call of the wild and following my innate instincts! All that was missing was a motorcycle! But as luck would have it, Dad brought one home this weekend. Finally I can experience the wind in my fur, while breathing in […]
