According to the Farmer’s Almanac and the Groundhog, last weekend we reached the halfway point between the Winter Solstice and the Spring Equinox. So although winter is technically half over, I thought I’d take this opportunity to remind dogs about the importance of taking care of their humans, especially during the long winter months when they […]
Earlier this week, we celebrated Asa’s 9th Gotcha Day Anniversary. However, I have to admit that early on I wasn’t so sure about his Golden pedigree. Oh sure we’ve met his “parents” Momma Sage and Daddy Spenser, but I just can’t shake the feeling that Asa is actually part polar bear! Or perhaps a yeti? […]
Today is the 9th Anniversary of when Asa came home to live with us! I can still remember that day as if it were yesterday. We got up extra early that morning, and Dad took me for a walk while Mom did one last sweep puppy proofing the house. We all anxiously watched the weather […]
Welcome to the 7th Annual Golden Tail Wags Awards, where we celebrate the weird and wonderful things we saw, and friends we’ve made, while going on adventures last year. However, unlike other award shows where you get celebrity hosts, you get us – Chuck Billy and Asa! Your intrepid explorers with active imaginations! Rest assured […]
Today is the Winter Solstice. On what is the darkest day of the year, with the least amount of daylight in the Northern Hemisphere, we ask that you be the light for those around you. While out and about, be sure to smile! For some it may be the only smile they see today. Those […]
Asa here. Yesterday Chuck Billy shared his past mistakes when hanging out with Santa, and his concerns about his status on this year’s Nice List. Today I would like to share a few thoughts on how to always be on Santa’s good side. It isn’t difficult. You just need to be nice to Santa! Everyone […]
Once upon a time, a Golden, who absolutely loves Christmas and watched a lot of movies and read a lot of books on the topic, visited a special house. While his older brother chatted downstairs with friends, Asa, oops I mean just a random Golden who believes in the magic of Christmas, decided to explore […]
Asa here. As you know in good times and bad, I often turn to music to express my feelings. But today, instead of writing a parody, I’m sharing with you the lyrics of a Bon Jovi song, “Story of my Life.” “This is the story of my lifeAnd I write it every day I know […]
On this World Kindness Day, Asa and I double dog dare you to bring back kindness not as a one day event, or even a random act, but as a courtesy of every day life. Acts of kindness that were once considered as having good manners generations ago need to come back into daily practice. […]
Dear Great Pumpkin, On this National Pumpkin Day, I’d like to give you a pep talk. After watching It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown for the umpteenth time, it has come to my realization I don’t know anyone who has actually met you. I can understand being shy, and not wanting to draw attention to […]
