Being an office dog is hard work, especially when your coworker insists on using a term that can easily be confused with our favorite game. Due to Dad’s inability to communicate effectively, balls or any toy that can be used like a ball are now banned from the office. Now before you go jumping to […]
Dad means well, but he is forcing Asa and I to spend our days in a hostile work environment. Don’t get me wrong. We love having Dad as a coworker! We make a good team with me barking during conference calls to alert him to squirrels outside, while Asa supervises Dad’s every move by insisting […]
In case you haven’t noticed, Mom and Dad are the ultimate Helicopter Dog Parents. So you can’t begin to understand my astonishment when I overheard them asking a friend to check in on us while they were away for a rare night out in Boston. I’ve waited for this opportunity for three years! Don’t get […]
Well apparently the case of the missing dog nail clippers continues! Guess what arrived on our doorstep on Saturday? The “undeliverable” replacement clippers Mom ordered a month ago! Dad thought he canceled that order when we received notice they couldn’t be delivered for unexplained reasons. Yet, surprise there it was almost a month to the […]
Sometimes, in rising up to meet a challenge, you can run into adversity. This is my story. During the subfreezing temperatures in January, Dad got the ridiculous idea that Asa and I should wear booties to protect our paws.

Mom is being a drama queen. Just because her tummy doesn’t feel well, that’s no excuse to lounge around in bed all day and neglect me. She certainly could learn a lot by following my example. I vomit, Asa eats it, and we’re all good to go for the next adventure! But nope, Mom is […]
Mom and Dad are creatures of habit. Therefore, once a year Asa and I like to shake things up by taking them on vacation. So last week we surprised Mom and Dad by heading to Acadia National Park in Maine for an adventure! Now when traveling with Humans, especially Helicopter Dog Parents, it is important […]
Once again Mom and Dad are adhering to their “do as I say, not as a I do” rule. Who are they to tell me what I cannot eat when they blatantly consume those exact foods in front of me! Case in point, last night they took Asa and I along when they went to […]
It all started innocently enough. Mom looked bored, so Asa and I decided to give her something to do by making a bit of a mess in the kitchen and living room. Little did we realize that would trigger Mom’s annual spring cleaning frenzy! Usually she does it earlier in the season, so we thought […]
You know that old scenario where a human sneaks their vegetables to the dog, because they don’t want to eat them? Well what if the reverse happens where it is the dog who is sneaking his veggies to the human because he doesn’t want to eat them? I’m having a bit of a moral dilemma. […]
