Dog Friendly Trails
Dog friendly hiking trails for you to explore!
Singing Beach, Manchester by the Sea, Massachusetts
Last November I thought what better place to take Asa, an up and coming rock star, than Singing Beach in Manchester by the Sea, Massachusetts. Dogs are allowed during the off-season of October 15 – April 15. Although I probably should have done my research before taking Asa there to perform. The name Singing Beach […]
I Was Not Afraid, I Was Never Afraid, Honest
The state of Maine is filled with paranormal stories. From lonely lighthouses where ghostly inhabitants continue to keep watch centuries later, to mysterious creatures spotted deep in our woods. Therefore in celebration of National Paranormal Day, May 3rd, I am sharing my own fur raising walk that combined both a shadow figure and a strange […]
I Should Stick to the Plan
I tend to stick to my hobbies. However, when Asa joined our family, I felt the need to branch out, and pursue new interests. As I leaf through these old puppy photos, I wish I didn’t log off on one of my old habits, namely my obsession with sticks! When I was a puppy, I […]
Hive’s Gonna Swarm Today
For anyone concerned that we would miss the opportunity to share one of Asa’s parodies in honor of Bon Jovi’s 40th anniversary and the release of their documentary, “Thank You, Goodnight,” fear not! Just like Jon, we also went into our archives to revisit timeless classics. And what better parody to look back on than […]
Redefine Perfect this Spring
In the spring humans go through great lengths trying to have the “perfect” lawn. However, have you stopped to consider how imperfect perfection is, and what harm it is doing to the environment? By covering lawns and gardens in pesticides and other chemicals there are longterm consequences on honey bees and dogs! There are multiple […]
Halibut Point State Park, Rockport, Massachusetts

We just realized though that we never actually wrote a review of the park. So without further delay, here is our visit to Halibut Point State Park, in Rockport, Massachusetts. This […]
Unskinny Puppy
Yesterday I told you about my embarassing situation on the scale at the animal hospital. After things calmed down and the treats I scattered were picked up, I eventually was weighed. Thankfully, I didn’t hear the dreaded “D” word, Diet. In fact, the vet told me I lost weight since my last appointment, and could […]
A Memorable Not So Grand Entrance
Asa here. Well that was awkward. As a rock star, I like to give my adoring fans a memorable performance wherever I go. Such was the case on a recent visit to the vet’s for my annual physical. On that day I was greeted by my vet tech friend, and a new soon to be […]
Unattached Floating Object
UFO Investigation Log Book Entry April 23, 2024: I received a report from avid beach walker, Hannah, regarding a suspicious object on a Maine beach, attracting a lot of attention. My team and I set out to investigate this mysterious Unattached Floating Object. According to the media, it is a navigational buoy that became detached […]
Plight of the Piping Plover
Coastal Maine suffered extensive damage this past winter, leaving returning seasonal visitors the difficult task of rebuilding their summer homes. This includes our feathered friends the Piping Plovers. Along Maine’s seacoast much of their nesting areas in the dunes and sandy areas above the tideline were damaged or washed away in the record breaking storm […]
