Asa here. I can’t believe I missed my opportunity to definitively prove to Chuck Billy that I’m a Dire Wolf! Ever since I was a puppy, I knew I was more than just a ruggedly handsome Golden Retriever. I’m a Dire Wolf, the fierce prehistoric wolf of legendary fame on HBO! However, despite all my […]
Slowly but surely my little brother is becoming a full-grown Dire Wolf! For those of you who may be new to Living with a Golden, when Asa was a puppy he predicted that someday he would grow up to be a fierce Dire Wolf, last seen in prehistoric times and on HBO. I just laughed […]
Well it only took 3 years, but I finally figured out what is Asa’s kryptonite. So what stops my happy-go-lucky little brother dead in his tracks? It’s not my nemesis snakes, nor is it the dreaded vacuum. It’s not even the scary hairdryer after a bath. Nope, Asa is rendered powerless by the lid of […]
While looking through old photos I made a startling discovery. Asa’s personality traits can be traced to one toy he played with as a puppy.

It all began when our new little friend, Pyewacket, emailed and asked a simple question, that had an obvious answer. However, it was Asa’s surprising response that gave me insight into the mind of the Dire Wolf. After further scientific observation, […]
You may recall back in the fall Asa made some sort of connection between shedding his fur and growing into a Dire Wolf. At the time we all laughed, petted him on the head, and called him a silly puppy! Well just a few months later his prediction may actually be coming true! According to […]
The safety of my family depends on a squeaky toy! Ok I have to admit Asa’s performance review last week was a real eye opener. What a slacker! Asa actually thinks that getting us to play and have fun is somehow contributing to the wellbeing of the family. Nowhere in that interview does he mention his […]
Ever since he was a puppy, Asa has been convinced that he would grow up to be a Dire Wolf. However as time passes and his growth spurts have ceased, Asa’s confidence has waned. But just when he was starting to accept that he may not actually be a Dire Wolf, Asa has renewed hope […]
