Yesterday I overheard a conversation with Mom’s Great Aunt. Great Aunt Dottie is the wise matriarch of our family, and even I, brilliant dog that I am, can learn from her. She no longer needs to worry about snowstorms from her new home. However after living on her own for many years, she revealed yesterday […]
Mother Nature, I don’t like your negative attitude. Well actually it is your negative wind chills I don’t like. Anyways, you can’t bring me down! I’ve decided to stay positive about the recent bone chilling temperatures and the foot of snow on the way tomorrow. In short, I’m keeping it positive while in the negative! […]
Thank you Bear for coming to Mom’s rescue! No, not my cousin Bear, but my new neighborhood Bear. We’d like to thank our new neighbor Bear and his Dad for their random act of kindness on Monday. As you know our Dad mysteriously disappeared during the big Maine Blizzard, leaving Mom with the formidable task […]
Dear Mother Nature, First off I’d like to thank you for the abundance of snow you gave us. Thanks to your generosity, in less than a week you gave us approximately 3 feet of snow here in Maine, with more on the way today. We certainly have an embarrassment of riches, or in this case snow. […]
Ok, so it was just a month ago I was growling about the mild winter and that there wasn’t any snow for my winter hikes. Now ironically there was too much snow this past weekend for us to go on a hike. Adding insult to injury, with temperatures hovering in the teens it was too […]
Neither snow nor sleet nor frosty paws will prevent us from our appointed rounds! On snowy days neighborhood patrol takes on even greater importance for Asa and myself. While most humans are cozy and warm in their homes, we are out there making sure all is safe in our neighborhood. We scan the fields for […]
My brother is a genius…sometimes. Yesterday was not one of those days. It’s been bitter cold here the past few days, so going outside to play hasn’t been an option. Not to mention our backyard has turned into an ice rink. So unless we learn how to skate, fetch just isn’t a good idea. However […]
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 because of the deep freeze blanketing the country. At least on the bright side, Mom and Asa are in agreement that it’s something to sing […]
For the entire month of December Dogs will be faced with all sorts of temptations that we must resist if we want to be on Santa’s, and more importantly Mom’s, Nice List. I have to admit Asa did a really good job with the Christmas Obstacle Course of Temptation that Mom set up last year. […]
Dear Mother Nature, we need to have a little talk. We couldn’t help but notice that it is December here in Maine, and all we’re suppose to receive today is a dusting to a couple inches of snow. Yet our friends all around the country and beyond are already enjoying lots and lots of snow. […]
