Dog Friendly Trails
Dog friendly hiking trails for you to explore!
Hello! It’s me, Asa. I’m hoping you could do a favor for me today, and keep an eye on Chuck Billy, Mom and Dad? I’ll be spending the day with my friend, Dr. Doug. I don’t often spend the day away from my family, in fact I can’t remember the last time I did. But […]
Not to brag, but I will, my nose still knows! It’s been about a year since we’ve played any scent work games inside the house, and neither Mom nor Dad can remember when was the last time we played it outside. But despite the lapse, I showed them I’m still just as good as back […]
Yesterday was National Walking Day, what better way to continue the celebration than by taking part in the virtual Pope Memorial SPCA 5K Dirty Paws Fun Run! Between today and April 10, 2021, the staff and volunteers of the Pope Memorial SPCA of Concord-Merrimack County in New Hampshire invite you to walk, hike, or run […]
Today is National Walking Day! We double dog dare all pups to leash up their humans and take them for a walk! Spring is a great time to recommit to taking your humans out for a daily walk, to help them get healthier and raise awareness about the importance of physical activity for both them […]

Recently we received a letter from the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife asking if they could take a walk in our woods to count the New England Cottontail Rabbits living here. Apparently they are the only species of rabbit native to this area, but they are endangered! They prefer to live in “young […]
The following is a conversation between myself and Asa regarding the delivery of a surprise box of Wüfers cookies, with no note as to who sent it. Chuck Billy: Step away from the box. I repeat step away! Asa: Why? The Easter Bunny is probably practicing social distancing again this year, and sent them to […]
Asa here. On this first day of April, I can’t keep my out of this world secret any longer. Chuck Billy, the renowned Dog Ufologist, is actually an alien! His UFO crash landed in our living room years ago. Unfortunately or perhaps fortunately, his bumpy landing gave him a case of amnesia, so he doesn’t […]
Earlier this month Asa surprised us by posing with his friend, the Easter Bunny, for a flyer at a local pet supplies store. Grandma reminded me that this wasn’t the first time Asa and the bunny were featured together. Back in 2016 the Easter Bunny asked Asa if he could use his photo for a […]
The spring backyard building boom has begun! I’ve been watching the birds and other critters hard at work making nests. I’ve also seen a lot of posts lately of dogs sharing their fur to help their feathered friends. However, I want to caution that NOT all dog fur is safe to leave out for birds! […]
