I’m all for spreading holiday cheer, but I wish these carolers would do it someplace else! The Coyotes have been out in force wandering our neighborhood, and their proximity to our home makes me nervous. It all started last weekend, when we couldn’t help but notice in the light coating of snow that blanketed the […]
I bet you’re wondering why I’m in my crate right now and not out patrolling my neighborhood. Well today I’m demonstrating the importance of duck and cover drills. There is a new threat in my neighborhood, and to be honest I’m not quite sure how to respond other than by seeking shelter! It all started […]
Well I learned an important lesson on my vacation. Always ask if it is a shared rental and research the location. Turns out our rental cottage was a popular bird destination! It didn’t take long after our arrival for Asa and I to notice the previous guests were still lingering on the lawn. I politely […]
It is a little known fact that writing a dog blog can be inherently difficult work. Case in point, a spider has appeared on my computer this morning. Is he a visitor from the dark web, upset that with each of my dog ufologist posts I am getting closer to the truth about UFOs? Or […]
On Tuesday afternoon, at approximately 4:45 PM, I received a report of stolen property. The homeowners had gone out to pick wild blueberries in their yard when they discovered a large quantity was missing. They cannot estimate how many were stolen. But did say when they last checked days earlier their bushes were bursting with […]
It’s rare that I admit I’m wrong. That’s because it never happens. However, for the sake of neighborhood peace, I would like to apologize for a statement made in Friday’s post, “That Time We Got Sprayed.” I hereby rescind my comment that cat spray is the worst smell. Skunks are indeed the worst! I bet […]
Recently my friend Daisy experimented with a new perfume courtesy of a skunk. Oddly enough her Mom didn’t like it, and immediately scrubbed away the offending odor. This reminds me of a time when I wish Mom and Dad scrubbed away the worst smell imaginable before inflicting it on myself and Asa. It was the […]
Dogs gather around. We need to talk. We’ve all been there. You’re enjoying a great day at the beach or on a trail, when all of a sudden that dog shows up and ruins it for everyone. Maybe he’s running with reckless abandon off-leash, or perhaps she’s a bit too friendly when greeting fellow weekend warriors, or […]
Just the mere mention of ticks gives most dogs and people that creepy crawly feeling. But did you also know spiders are afraid of ticks too? No seriously, I saw it with my own eyes! So there we were outside enjoying the beautiful weather, when Mom sounded the tick alarm. “Tick!” Dad, immediately put down […]
Last week at approximately 2:43 PM I overheard Mom report to Dad that a section of our fence was knocked down. This sounds like a case for Detective Chuck Billy! Immediately Dad jumped to conclusions and blamed Mother Nature’s blustery attitude for the breach in our fence. However, I knew it couldn’t be that obvious. […]
