Chuck Billy has all the luck! Day in and day out we go on neighborhood patrol and nothing happens. Then suddenly I’m sidelined for an injury and he has all sorts of adventures on his walk without me! Even more upsetting is Chuck Billy doesn’t even appreciate it! It all started a couple days ago […]
Neither snow nor sleet nor frosty paws will prevent us from our appointed rounds! On snowy days neighborhood patrol takes on even greater importance for Asa and myself. While most humans are cozy and warm in their homes, we are out there making sure all is safe in our neighborhood. We scan the fields for […]
The Coyote brothers are up to their old tricks again. For months they have been trespassing into my territory. It all started on Thanksgiving when we saw one of the Coyote brothers headed across the field towards Inky’s house. He was no doubt pretending to be a distant relative in search of a family meal. […]
On Friday I thought I was so clever to arrange for a substitute guard dog. However after a weekend of tail wagging fun exploring new places, I returned to discover the unfortunate consequences of my reckless behavior. Due to a series of unforeseen events I learned an important lesson – I’m irreplaceable! I never should […]
Once again Adolescent Asa has discovered a “new” song, and has decided to put his own spin on the lyrics. For the past week every morning he has been singing, “For Those About to Walk.” Yep, this time Asa is reinterpreting the lyrics to AC/DC’s classic anthem For Those About to Rock. Seriously Mom, you […]
So there I was enjoying a quiet morning, dictating my latest blog post to Mom. Dad was out with a friend, and Asa was downstairs binge watching Bugs Bunny cartoons. When all of a sudden I heard this noise coming from outside. The best I could describe it was like a goat. We don’t have […]
We played with Foxy Mama this morning! There we were plodding along on neighborhood patrol when standing in the road, blocking our way home, was Foxy Mama. She looked almost as surprised by us, as we were to see her. At first Asa mistook her for a cat, and wanted to play with her. But […]
I can’t believe Mom and Dad put me on the Disabled List! I tweaked my hind leg the other day. Nothing serious. But I admit I’ve been favoring the other leg when I walk. However, that is no reason to keep me away from my responsibilities! I cringed when I saw the rookie head off […]
Today is National Pet Day, and it occurred to me dogs play a really important role in our communities. Namely if it wasn’t for us, our humans wouldn’t know their neighbors! Take for example our neighbor Charlie. He was so excited when he moved into the neighborhood that he couldn’t wait to introduce himself. We […]
We saved a life on our morning walk! Seriously, I saved a life! We were on neighborhood patrol when out of the shadows came running a small dog. We had never seen him before, and he was equally surprised to see us. You know how excitable Jack Russell Terriers can be. So despite it being […]
