These are the times that try dogs’ souls. After a month of being unable to play fetch because the backyard is covered in ice, it is finally almost melted. So what does Mother Nature do? She’s sending us more snow! Now don’t get me wrong, I love winter. However, I also love spring. And Mother […]
Mother Nature put on quite a show for us this past weekend. Although Friday’s nor’easter was not a direct hit on Maine, it did coincide with astronomical high tides. Thus setting the stage for an awe inspiring performance along the coast. For the past three years we have shared on our Dog Friendly Places page […]

Sometimes, in rising up to meet a challenge, you can run into adversity. This is my story. During the subfreezing temperatures in January, Dad got the ridiculous idea that Asa and I should wear booties to protect our paws.

Whereas in […]
Apparently Mom and Asa are having a bit of a disagreement over whether it is too cold to go out and play. I have to admit I’m on Mom’s side. Even I’d rather snuggle by the pellet stove than play fetch in this weather. At least on the bright side, Mom and Asa are in […]
Mom is insisting on decorating for Fall today. Paws crossed Asa is old enough now to resist temptation so history doesn’t repeat itself. Years ago Mom’s obsession with festooning the house in orange and gold knickknacks inspired one of Asa’s more memorable escapades as a puppy. While I supervise Mom, here is a stroll down […]
