For the record, I was NOT afraid. I was simply conducting a drill should this had been an actual emergency, which it was NOT. It was just a drill. This needs to be understood before proceeding with my recounting of how events unfolded here last week. I repeat, I was not afraid. I was never […]
This is DJ Asa bringing you my classic summer hit parody to get you through the dog days of summer! So come with me where there are tropical breezes, delicious treats, and lost loves in Peanutbutterville, sung to the tune of Jimmy Buffett’s “Margaritaville.” Nibblin’ on dog treats, Readin’ my friends’ tweets, All about their […]
Alright, some folks may have accused me of overreacting to those ginormous green caterpillars found in our garden yesterday. Oh sure the fact they can turn into moths may sound like no big deal to most, but I know first hand what happens if they team up! Let me remind you of the time our […]
Mother Nature is disrupting our routine with the first heatwave of the summer. In an effort to keep things cool in the house, certain doors are closed in order to run the air conditioner. I do not like closed doors. Should I bark at the obvious choice to be opened? Or should I choose a […]
As Mother Nature blankets New England in a spring snow, I can’t help but reflect upon words of wisdom from Mom’s Great Aunt Dottie.

No further prompting needed, our snow day […]

Just imagine the smiles on everyone’s faces, including our big goofy Golden grins, if you send us a surprise snowstorm today! You’d be the hero […]
Have I mentioned how much I love Daylight Saving Time? Not only do I get fed an hour early, having Mom sleep deprived can lead to delicious treats! Well almost, if in my excitement I didn’t ruin it. Let me explain. Mom was making her breakfast a little while ago, when she reached into the […]

However, it is important to keep dogs entertained both […]
