Asa here. I should have listened to Chuck Billy when he told me, “no good deed goes unpunished.” Then perhaps I wouldn’t be starting off 2020 wearing a cone. Let me explain… To celebrate the New Year we went on a First Day Hike at a local land preserve. When Dad was loading me back […]
Well Asa’s day is off to a disappointing start. In the wee hours of the morning Asa awoke filled with excitement. He was making so much noise spinning and dancing, that Mom came downstairs around 3:30 AM to check that he was ok. Asa normally awakes bright eyed and bushy tail, but today’s behavior was […]
Asa here. I’d like to tell you about the long strange trip I recently took. It all started one morning when Mom and Dad forgot to feed me breakfast. Thankfully they remembered to feed Chuck Billy because he would have thrown quite the tantrum. I’m more patient than he is, so I just happily followed […]

As Kondo explains, “The best way to choose what to keep and what to throw away is to take each item in one’s […]
When you’re a celebrity, such as myself it can be difficult going places because I’m often spotted by adoring fans. Case in point yesterday I wanted to take a leisurely stroll. However it didn’t take long for people to notice me. Peddling towards me from the opposite direction, I could hear the leader in a […]
Once again I’m realizing I underestimated Mom and Dad’s trainer. I just hope I didn’t accidentally ruin his surprise for me. It was one year ago that Asa and I enrolled Mom and Dad for some training classes. Back then I simply wanted to fine tune their leash walking so that Asa and I didn’t […]
Today is Patriots’ Day. A state holiday observed in Massachusetts and Maine commemorating the anniversary of the Battles of Lexington and Concord, the first battles of the American Revolutionary War, which took place on April 19, 1775.
