I’m happy to report that both Asa and I resisted the trap Dad left for us in the living room. In case you forgot or haven’t read it yet, in the post Lead Us Not Into Temptation Dad made the most intriguing toy ever, but expected us to leave it alone! He put sticks in […]

Asa’s First 100 Days
To commemorate Asa’s first 100 days living with us, I would like to sit down with my little brother for a performance review. How do you see your role in this family? Well, I have many different roles. I am the Family Ambassador when we are out in public, because people can’t resist my cuteness. […]

That’s Not My Name!
Dear Mom and Dad, would you please stop calling me embarassing nicknames when we are out in public?! I am a grown dog now, with responsibilities. Heck, I even have a blog! So please resist the urge to call me “Chuckles” and the even far more dreaded “Chuckle Bum” while out in public. If you […]

Asa, Criminal Mastermind
Since Asa’s arrival home I have considered our relationship as I am the teacher and he is the student. But it dawned on me that I could learn a thing or two from Asa. Case in point, stealing socks. I LOVE socks! Who can resist the way they smell, how tasty they are to chew […]

Dog ID Tags
In honor of National Pet ID Week, it’s a good time to discuss what information is on your dog’s ID tag. With Lemmy we practically had a book written on his first tag. This included his name, a phone number, our street address, and even the line “I need medicine please.” In order to fit […]
