Although Dad and I disagree on which is better, new car smell vs eau de dog, there is one thing we can agree on – no one wants the car to smell like poop! Unfortunately though a lot of the trails we hike don’t have trash receptacles, and require us to bring it on car […]
This Sunday is the annual Paws Walk to support the New Hampshire SPCA. Over the years we’ve made a lot of memories attending this event, but none quite as memorable as Angel Lemmy’s first time attending in 2007. Fresh off his recent graduation from puppy kindergarten, Lemmy was very excited to attend this family tradition, […]
In Asa’s update yesterday, he neglected to mention that his goggles give him a superpower. X-ray vision? No. The ability to see in virtual reality? No. Asa’s goggles give him the superpower to make me invisible! At least that’s how I feel going places with Asa now. When we arrive all we hear is, “Look […]
Mom has a lot on her mind lately. Therefore she did what generations of women in her family have done in similar situations – she cleaned the house. I’m not talking your average weekly chores. I’m talking about finding what’s that in the back of the cupboards and closets, and dusting the top of the […]
After a one week delay, our annual kibble hunt took place yesterday. As you may recall, there were cheating accusations in 2022 that have yet to be addressed. Therefore this year I made a few changes in the judging. First the treat total would be kept in a written tally, and not as just a […]
Not to brag, but I will. Since 2012 I have been the winner of our Easter kibble hunt. Oh sure, there is an asterisk by 2014, because I was the only dog competing that year. Lemmy had just crossed Rainbow Bridge that Friday. But all the other years I have won…that is until last year. […]
Well it happened again. We got locked out of the house. This isn’t the first time this happened. Nor will it be the last. So of course while we waited for the door to open, Asa wrote a song parody about it. This time it is to Chumbawamba’s earworm, “Tubthumping.” Except for us the song […]
Asa here. Well this is awkward. Chuck Billy is outside and refusing to come in the house because of a beeping noise. No, it isn’t the chirping of a battery dying in the smoke detectors. Chuck Billy taught us long ago that he absolutely detests that sound and in a panic will run to the […]
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 […]
So there we were at the park. We just finished our first real hike in weeks, and were enjoying a celebratory cup of peanut butter. That is until we were interrupted as usual. A couple approached and asked to pet us. But something unusual happened instead. Dad responded with, “No, they’re having a snack.” The […]
