I’m not sure what triggered it, but my happy-go-lucky little brother is in quite a bad mood this morning! It all started when Dad was getting ready to take us on our walk. Asa flopped on the kitchen floor and refused to get up. To be honest, I have to take responsibility for teaching him […]
Fetch aficionados rejoice! After months…well maybe just weeks…our long suffering neglect is finally over! We got a Chuckit Ball Launcher! It all began innocently enough with Asa happily watching other dogs play fetch with this coveted toy on the beach. His longing looks did not go unnoticed, and we were often invited to play. As […]
Once again I begin this post by telling everyone not to worry. I’m ok. In fact, I’m more than ok, I’m great! Asa took our little conversation to heart, and is finally helping me while I wear this ridiculous cone of shame. He even went above and beyond by showing impressive problem solving skills. The […]
Ok before anyone worries, I’m fine. I’m wearing the cone of shame because of a hot spot. An annual summer event around here. Anyways, while wearing this foolish thing, I was hoping Asa would step up and help around the house. But yet again my optimism turned to disappointment when a stranger appeared at our […]
I finally understand what Chuck Billy has been trying to tell me about answering the call of the wild and following my innate instincts! All that was missing was a motorcycle! But as luck would have it, Dad brought one home this weekend. Finally I can experience the wind in my fur, while breathing in […]
Dear Maddie, I would like to apologize for my little brother’s behavior at the beach on Saturday. That was really nice of you and your Dad to invite us to play fetch. Asa didn’t mean to dominate the game. It’s just that for the longest time now we’ve seen dogs playing at the beach with […]
Mom tries, she really does. But she forgets who she is dealing with sometimes. Saturday afternoon Mom decided to get us all fluffy and good looking for our Father’s Day celebration with Grandpa on Sunday. She even splurged and bought the special lavender and mint dog shampoo that Grandma says makes us extra fluffy. She scrubbed […]
Pardon me, but I’m feeling a bit sentimental today. While updating the website, I was struck by how much Asa has changed. Without realizing it, he has grown from a pesky little puppy to my best friend. Oh sure Asa is still annoying, goofy and downright embarrassing at times. But through it all I couldn’t […]
Adolescent Asa is eighteen months old! To celebrate this milestone once again he is singing his version of a classic rock anthem. This time he has changed the words to “I’m Eighteen” by Alice Cooper. To be honest, I’m getting use to Asa singing the wrong words. I just wish he’d wash off that ridiculous […]
As you know Mom and Dad put me on the disabled list to rest my sore leg. Little did they realize though how hard I work keeping an eye on Asa and disciplining him. By telling me I had to take it easy, Asa saw this as his opportunity to ascend to the throne of […]
