I bet you’re wondering why I’m hanging out in Asa’s crate today. It is because my disgusting little brother struck again. You see during the night he had an upset tummy while in his crate. At first I thought nothing of it, because after all he was safely locked in with it. What harm could […]
The following is a public service announcement from Chuck Billy and Asa: We’d like to talk with you today about a serious topic – Retrieving. Many people inaccurately assume that just because we are Golden Retrievers we can retrieve. However, that cannot be further from the truth! Eye / mouth coordination is a skill not […]
Dognabit! I can’t take it anymore!!! I’m sorry, that outburst was very unbecoming of a Golden. But once again Asa ruined a perfectly good nap by insisting on laying on my head. Recently though my good friend, Shawn, reminded me that Asa is only doing it because he loves me and wants to be with […]
Hanging out in my yard with Asa is like being with Pac Man. But instead of ghosts, he is tirelessly chasing crickets. You see our yard has exploded with crickets. They are everywhere! And Asa has taken it upon himself to try to eat them all. Problem is Asa doesn’t have the best eye / […]
Uh oh, it looks like Asa had a disagreement with his Imaginary Friend again. I just don’t understand why those two can’t get along? But every day it is the same thing. Asa will be happily playing in the living room, then he will notice his Imaginary Friend who likes to hang out in the […]
Hi, my name is Asa and I have a hot spot. Chuck Billy is forcing me to write today’s blog post because he is too busy muttering something about Aliens and this stupid lampshade I have to wear. Seriously, what is wrong with my family?! This is ridiculous! It all started last night when I […]
Asa has been living with us for six months now. Time for another performance review! I’ll be using the same questions from his First 100 Days interview: How do you see your role in this family? Now that I’ve been here for six months, I feel that my role has been clearly defined as Entertainment […]
I’m beginning to realize that Asa is a literal little fellow, and that I need to be careful what I tell him. Case in point, this morning I was happily telling him that our family reunion will be happening soon. I LOVE this annual event! I get to see Momma Sage, Grandma Rue, Aunt Brie, […]
Puppies these days have it too easy! Yesterday was a hot one here with temperatures nearing 90 degrees. Apparently Asa decided it was too inconvenient to stand in front of the AC to cool off, so he pawed at the fan until Mom turned it on for him. Seriously?! Why can’t he just content himself […]
Ok, I get it. Puppies explore the world by putting everything into their mouths. But Asa is certainly pushing the limits by treating our morning walks like a puppy smorgasbord! Must he stop and sample every maple tree seed, pinecone and twig that he sees? Worst yet, why does he insist on licking worms and […]
