Chicken Bone!
Well, not really, but it is what we have been calling Asa’s newest chewing toy from Nylabone. Over the last week or so Asa has started to lose his puppy teeth which means his chewing has increased. Hard chew toys are now off limits in order to protect his new adult choppers. Chuck Billy was […]

Kibble Caper
Yesterday we were victims of a crime, and my parents could care less! Sometime between Saturday night and Sunday morning a rabbit broke into our home and hid my kibble in various locations around the living room. This is an outrage! It’s bad enough that a rabbit was playing with my food, but it is […]

Goodbye Sweet Day
Today is Good Friday, and although it falls on a different date each year my family will always associate it with the loss of our dear Lemmy. Although my parents did not intentionally pick that date, after a brave battle with Cushing’s Disease, we said goodbye to Lemmy on Good Friday. His disease had progressed […]

Puppy Playtime
With snow in the forecast for the tenth weekend in a row and temperatures ten degrees below normal, we decided to abandon our search for Spring, and instead head indoors for Puppy Playtime at Petco. Times vary so check with your local Petco for details, but it is a great way for puppies aged 8 […]

Lead Us Not Into Temptation
Since Asa’s arrival I have been hard at work teaching him what are acceptable items to sink his razor sharp teeth into and what are not. Mom and Dad should really appreciate my efforts because so far…knock on wood…we’ve had very few accidents. But then today Dad goes ahead and puts the most tempting toy […]

Hiking Pants: 5.11’s Covert Cargo Pants
Next up in this review series is 5.11’s Covert Cargo Pants. Again, with each pair I consider the following: 1. Durability 2. Comfort 3. Pocket functionality (how many and how useful) Pros – Durability is normal. LL Bean’s canvas pants are definitely more durable, however, I have had a pair of these 5.11 pants for over […]

My Disgusting Little Brother
Puppies are disgusting! You wouldn’t believe what he did this week! Warning: Those with a squeamish stomach may want to stop reading this post and watch one of our light hearted videos instead. Ok, so we just came inside from a lovely walk followed by a game of fetch. As I was settling down to […]
