Dogs, whether you’re visiting family and friends over the Holidays, or hosting a gathering at your home, here are some things to keep in mind so that it is a happy and worry-free celebration for everyone, especially you! First off, you’re going to be surrounded by a lot of tempting food. But you need to […]
You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen, but do you recall that time Asa met a reindeer on Christmas Eve? I didn’t but Asa’s decision to take his reindeer squeaky friend on a walk yesterday reminded me. And of course that in turn reminded Asa of the song he wrote for the special […]
Dear Santa, It’s me Asa. It is with deep regret that I must request you remove me from your Nice List. I’m sorry, but after an 8 year spotless record I cracked under Christmas pressure. It happened on Saturday when I headed upstairs to find a sock. Oh that wasn’t the misstep. I always carry […]
The Cats were listening to begin with. This must be understood or else nothing truly magical can come from the theory I am about to relate. Today’s post is brought to you by me, Asa, because my brother isn’t the only one with a theory about cats! Yesterday Chuck Billy shared a scientific study on […]
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 […]
Asa is parodying yet another Christmas song. Today’s inspiration comes from an unfortunate incident with a gift I received last Christmas. In fact, he is singing it to the tune of Wham’s “Last Christmas.” Personally, I think Asa is making much ado about nothing. The bear in question did survive…sort of! Last Christmas Santa gave […]
Mom and Asa have been very busy festooning every inch of this house with some sort of Christmas decoration. It is funny how each of us react to decorating differently. Take my brother angel Lemmy for example. He detested change, and was always upset this time of year. Lemmy would pace around the house growling, […]
If you’re looking for that jaw dropping gift, this is NOT the post for you. Instead this is about small acts of kindness that may not seem like much, but can truly make the Holidays special. Last week I shared ideas on giving of your time and talents to help nonprofits. Today I’m sharing ideas […]
Asa here. I’m working on writing my letter to Santa. This year rather than write a traditional note, I thought I’d put my thoughts to musical notes by writing him a song. Santa must get bored reading the same type of letters each year. But what tune to parody? There’s the Spice Girls’ “Wannabe.” If […]
Let’s face it, with the cost of everything going up from dog food to kitty litter, animal shelters and pet food pantries need help more than ever. Yet with personal budgets stretched thin, it can be overwhelming with so many nonprofits vying for your support. But there is a way to help! Giving can be […]
