Ode to Peanut Butter: A Dog’s Love Poem
In celebration of National Peanut Butter Lovers Day, we dedicate today’s poem to our brother, angel Lemmy, who absolutely loved this treat. With just the mere mention of Peanut Butter, he would perform every trick he ever learned in rapid succession in the hopes of getting a lick. I admit Asa’s no Lord Byron, and his […]
Car Archaeology
Dad’s car needs to go in for a big repair. The last time we did this the mechanic gave us a not so subtle hint that our car smells a bit too much like dog, by dousing it in heavy deodorizer. So to avoid that embarrassment this time, we decided to clean out the car […]
Cabin Fever with Puppy Asa
Cabin fever has definitely been setting in here this winter. However, Mother Nature is delivering to us fresh snow to play in today. This winter we actually have a snow deficit here in our neck of the woods in Maine by approximately 10 inches. Compare that to the winter when Asa first joined our family, […]
Spatial Unawareness with Asa
Apparently my post yesterday on wanting a little time alone worried some of my friends. We received a few direct messages concerned that everything was ok. Thank you for checking in, and I can assure you that I’m doing fine. However, to put minds at ease, I thought I’d share with you today what it […]
A Little Alone Time, Please
Don’t get me wrong. I enjoy having my family with me 24/7. Asa and I awake together every morning. We hang out with Mom and Dad all day whether they are working, going on adventures, or just relaxing. Then Asa and I settle in together again at night. There is also the one on one […]
Idle Winter Idyll
We interrupt our regularly schedule post to share with you this 2016 video, “Dance of the Golden Wolves.” Would I have liked to share my original thoughts instead? Yes, very much so! But Mom rudely got distracted by a project this weekend and ignored me barking my thoughts for her to type. And despite taking […]
Major Mistakes
By now you’ve probably heard about First Dog Major Biden’s unfortunate misadventures at the White House, and that he will be staying with family friends for the remainder of his Dad’s term in office. Well Major Biden isn’t the first Major to get into trouble while serving as First Dog of The United States. Franklin […]

The February thaw we are experiencing today is a good reminder that spring is just around the corner. Now is a good time to take inventory of your hiking first aid kit, so you’ll be prepared when adventure calls! Whether it is a quick trip to the beach or a full day of hiking, we […]
The Mysterious Magical Box
Asa: Chuck Billy, check out this mysterious box that appeared in the living room! I wonder what it is? It doesn’t look like the delivery boxes that show up at our door. Oh maybe it is one of those old timey travel trunks I read about in books? Could we be going on an adventure? […]
But I Will Sit Here, Always
Valentine’s Day has come and gone, and my brother Asa is feeling a bit down today. For you see his “girlfriend,” who he has never actually met nose to nose, sent him a Valentine’s Day gift. And now our self-proclaimed Romeo, is pining away for his true love, as he sits staring out the window […]
