Dogs, gather round. We need to have an important talk on this Earth Day. It seems not everyone is getting the message on the importance of picking up the poop! According to multiple surveys, only 60 percent of dog owners clean up after their pets. 60 percent may seem like a good start, but it […]
It’s no secret that Mom comes from a long line of nervous cleaners. When Grandma is worried about something, she cleans the house, just like Great Nana did, and Great Great Nana before her. So needless to say with Asa’s surgery this week, Mom has been on a cleaning frenzy. There’s no stopping her from […]
The following is a conversation between myself and Asa regarding the delivery of a surprise box of Wüfers cookies, with no note as to who sent it. Chuck Billy: Step away from the box. I repeat step away! Asa: Why? The Easter Bunny is probably practicing social distancing again this year, and sent them to […]
Remember that new dog bed I received for my birthday that I didn’t like? Well it’s still an awful bed, but as a training tool for Mom and Dad it is awesome! As you know, training Mom and Dad, and not letting them slip back into bad habits, has been an ongoing struggle for me. […]
Asa is brilliant! I can’t believe I didn’t think of this first. Asa completely redefined our role as office dogs! Every day we have to wait through Dad’s zoom meeting before we can go for our afternoon walk. Somedays the meetings are quick, barely 15 minutes long. Other days the meetings can go upwards of […]
Mom, Leave It! Back away from the Christmas tree! We repeat, Leave It! We know that for the past week you have been insisting that Christmas is over and have been putting away the decorations. However our friend Opie mentioned that perhaps we should keep our stockings hanging in case Santa has extra treats to […]
Dogs, listen up! I am here to tell you to never give up on your dreams. Asa and I are living proof that Second Breakfasts can indeed happen! All it takes is patience, determination, and sleep deprived humans! How did we achieve this goal that dogs dream of but so many are denied? Easy! Dad […]
Well played, Asa. Well played, indeed! I admit he went to extremes to get what he wanted, but I can’t help but admire his ingenuity. I had forgotten what a literal dog Asa is, so I should have been more careful with the wording of the “no new friends in the house rule.” I do […]
At approximately 6:30 AM on the morning of September 2, 2020 after returning from neighborhood patrol, I received a report by concerned citizen Mom that bloody paw prints were found in the living room. This sounds like a case for Detective Chuck Billy! I immediately secured the area so that myself and my assistant, Asa, […]
Now you would think things were quiet here during Mom’s recovery. Truth is that is far from the case. In fact, it was quite loud on more than one occasion. You could even say it was alarming! It all began the day before Mom’s surgery at 4:12 AM, when the smoke alarms started going off. […]
