Mom and Dad have lost their minds! Last week you may recall I rejoiced over the installation of a puppy playpen in our yard disguised as a “box garden.” Finally I could enjoy being outside without having to worry about Asa’s antics. But then Dad went ahead and ruined it by putting wire cones in […]
At last there is peace in my kingdom! Dad built a puppy playpen for Asa! Oh sure he’s calling it a “box garden.” But only a naive puppy would fall for a silly excuse like that. Box garden – HA! Growing boxes is the most foolish thing I ever heard of, especially considering we have […]
I stand corrected. Asa is not a Yeti. Nor is he a Zombie. Asa is in fact just a Bully! It started with a nip here and the occasional stolen toy there. Then it escalated to my complete loss of personal space and inability to call anything my own. Ok I admit it, I’m being […]
Mmmmmm, nothing beats that lemon fresh smell. I wonder where it is coming from? Oh wait, it is Asa! Har! Har! Asa is experiencing a right of passage in our household – the lemon water squirt bottle. You see Asa, who Mom and Dad are now calling Monkey Dog, has taken to jumping and climbing. […]
I’m happy to report that both Asa and I resisted the trap Dad left for us in the living room. In case you forgot or haven’t read it yet, in the post Lead Us Not Into Temptation Dad made the most intriguing toy ever, but expected us to leave it alone! He put sticks in […]
To commemorate Asa’s first 100 days living with us, I would like to sit down with my little brother for a performance review. How do you see your role in this family? Well, I have many different roles. I am the Family Ambassador when we are out in public, because people can’t resist my cuteness. […]
I have to admit I’m very impressed with how Asa used losing his puppy teeth to his advantage. It all started one day when we were out in the yard. Mom heard him making a grinding noise and thought that he had a rock in his mouth. But upon hearing the “Drop It” command, Asa […]
Without further ado, here is Asa with his puppy perspective on Spring: Once again I’d like to thank Chuck Billy for helping me adjust to the ways of the world. But clearly he does not realize the unique issues faced by a Winter puppy in Springtime. If having my beloved snow disappear is not troubling […]
Since Asa’s arrival home I have considered our relationship as I am the teacher and he is the student. But it dawned on me that I could learn a thing or two from Asa. Case in point, stealing socks. I LOVE socks! Who can resist the way they smell, how tasty they are to chew […]
With snow in the forecast for the tenth weekend in a row and temperatures ten degrees below normal, we decided to abandon our search for Spring, and instead head indoors for Puppy Playtime at Petco. Times vary so check with your local Petco for details, but it is a great way for puppies aged 8 […]
