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. […]
Ssshhh, come closer. Can you keep a secret? We want to tell you something, but don’t want Mom or Dad to hear. Yesterday they fed us breakfast TWICE! I know, awesome, right?! Normally I get really angry when Humans mess with my feeding times, but I have to admit I really enjoyed the end of […]
My calendar clearly states that today is Independence Day, the least favorite holiday for dogs. Then why have people been celebrating with those infernal fireworks since Friday night! Seriously, fireworks on the 4th of July are bad enough. Why extend my torture by randomly shooting them off days ahead of schedule! As far as I […]
It is a well documented fact that the seasons dictate the way Golden Wolves live. Although Golden Wolves are not known for being migratory animals, migration is an important behavioral strategy used to enhance our survival during the hot Summer months. Therefore, Asa and I have no choice but to follow our instincts and begin […]
Mom declared war on our fur tumbleweeds, and was on a spring cleaning frenzy all weekend. To be honest I’m not sure if I should be pleased or annoyed. After all it was a lot of work spreading our fur throughout the house, not to mention our creative efforts with dirt. In fact now that […]

Dear Mother Nature and Punxsutawney Phil, We couldn’t help but notice that you two are having a bit of a disagreement over the arrival of Spring. We distinctly remember Punxsutawney, that back in February on Groundhog’s Day you predicted an early Spring. You were even well on your way to surpassing that goal with an […]
These are the times that try dogs’ souls – Mud Season. Now don’t get me wrong, I LOVE Mud Season! Nothing compares to the scent of freshly made mud from melting snow, and rolling in it brings a sense of pleasure that is beyond description. However, Mom and Dad don’t share these sentiments, and Mud […]
Dear Mother Nature, I’m filling with anticipation. For Christmas? No! For snow! The month of December is half over, and yet there has been no measurable snowfall here in southern Maine. This is an outrage! Mother Nature, I understand you probably have Holiday errands and parties to attend like the rest of us, but surely […]
Well after weeks of dealing with the leaves cluttering my yard, it has become painfully apparent that Mom and Dad are in no hurry to clean them up. So I’ve decided to take matters into my own paws…and make Asa do it! As the saying goes, “a little hard work never killed anyone,” and I […]
