Dogs, do you enjoy going to the beach? Do you want to continue to be welcomed at Maine beaches? Then we all must do our part to protect the Piping Plovers! Piping Plovers are the small birds seen flitting across the shoreline. They nest above the high water mark, in the dry sandy areas, often […]
Recently Grandma excitedly called to tell me that the winner of Cadbury Bunny tryouts is a cat with one eye! After “an impressive number of votes,” Crash won over the hearts of people across the country to win the coveted spot in the 2023 Cadbury Clucking Bunny commercial. In fact, Crash is the first cat […]
Ever get that feeling at the back of your head that someone is following you too close? That’s what happened to Dad and me on a recent walk. If Chuck Billy was with us, I’m sure he would have assumed it was a UFO. I wondered if my squirrel friends were flying a kite on […]
The coyotes are back, and looking for trouble again. I heard them howling in the night, but it wasn’t until my morning walk that I realized just how close they were. In the dusting of snow we got overnight, I saw their fresh paw prints in my driveway, headed towards my neighbor’s yard. Not only […]
Back in the early days of Living with a Golden, I invited guest bloggers to share their views. This included our kitty cousin, Misty. Unlike my current kitty cousins, Angel Misty wanted to take a paws on role in helping to socialize Asa. As we were amazed to find out, he needed a lot more […]

Dogs, gather round close. I need to whisper so the Cats don’t hear us. For years I’ve been warning you that Santa has enlisted Cats to spy on us and report our every misstep to him to put us on the Naughty List. They are worse than those creepy Elves. Cats sit unmoving in various locations […]
We interrupt our regularly scheduled post for today because I need to have a serious conversation with Asa about an incident that occurred on the way to bed last night. Asa: Is it because I was feeling sluggish and headed up to bed early? Chuck Billy: That’s exactly what the problem is! Asa: I didn’t […]
You think that scene from Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds is scary? Imagine being swarmed by moths! Our recent run-in with moths invading my hive reminded me of that time we unwittingly found ourselves starring in our own horror movie – “The Moths!” The Moths (September 2018) It all began one quiet evening with a single […]
Dogs, you are not going to believe this, but there was a time that squirrels were popular pets! Yes, you read that correctly. People welcomed squirrels into their homes as pets!
