Over the years I’ve made my life as a watch dog seem very exciting. From barking at jaywalking squirrels on neighborhood patrol, to protecting my yard from trespassing deer, to solving the occasional bear crimes, I’ve done some really interesting things while protecting my family and neighbors. Yet my job also has a lot of […]
It finally all makes sense! Mom thought she named Asa after her ancestor, who was a fisherman with a dry wit. Whereas Asa misunderstood and assumed Mom named him after the Japanese word asa which translates to “morning!” No wonder Asa lives by the motto of rise and shine, and insists that we all wake […]
I had a busy day yesterday with Pepere’s visit, and overslept on this rainy morning. So instead of my regularly planned post which would have been super awesome, please accept this tutorial of me teaching Hedgie the Hedgehog how to do a happy dance. Typical, Asa is showing off again and ignoring his friend, Hedgie. […]
Asa has it in his head that he’s a “true gentleman.” Since I have better things to do, I’m going to let Asa explain that one to you. Thank you Chuck Billy. While scrolling through photos from Mom and Dad’s recent visit to Star Island, at the Isles of Shoals, I made a remarkable discovery. […]
Today is Take Your Dog to Work Day! For the past six years I have been working from home as Chief Executive Dog. It’s my job to make all the major decisions, manage the daily operations, and oversee the work being done by my team. Fascinating, right? Therefore today I’m sharing a glimpse into the […]
Mom and Dad take awesome care of Chuck Billy and me. So to thank them, I thought I’d buy them a special gift for their upcoming wedding anniversary. But what should I get them? I decided to ask the best gift giver I know, Santa! Normally I can only go to the mall in December […]
Yesterday we had our first visitor inside our house in what seems like a bazillion dog years! In fact, we can’t remember the last time we invited someone inside our home. Oh sure, Asa has had mice, ants, and various other bugs inside to play over the past year. But they weren’t invited and quickly […]
My recent surgery really got me thinking. It is time for me to start taking my career as a rock star serious. Sure I’ve written quite a few songs, but I really need to get a band together and start rehearsing. I know it is good to have a high decree of confidence in my […]
It’s been over a week since Asa was abducted by a UFO while visiting Dr. Doug at the animal hospital. It had all the telltale signs of an Alien abduction – Asa was missing for hours and returned home with obvious signs that a medical procedure was conducted on him. So today, I, Chuck Billy […]
Last week I shared how I surprised even myself by remembering my old nose work training, in “My Nose Still Knows.” Well a few dogs asked about my training and certification. So today I thought I’d share this post from 2016 where I explained my road to becoming a champion! Ok, I admit now that […]
