Chirp…chirp…chirp… ‘Tis the wind and nothing more… Quoth the Golden, “Nevermore!” Gather round my friends, and I will share with you my cautionary tale of my descent into madness. It all began just like any other day. Mom and Dad headed out, and Asa and I were settling in for our morning nap. That’s when […]
Asa likes to find the good in everyone, which is great any other time of the year. However, with Halloween right around the corner, I feel it is my responsibility to remind him, and other overly friendly dogs, to beware of monsters. When it comes to making friends on Halloween, Asa’s motto of a “a […]
Today Asa and I will be tackling the age old debate of which season is better, winter or summer. Being older and wiser, I will begin with my support of the best season ever, winter. Mother Nature, pull up a chair. I think you’re going to want to listen to this debate, and take notes. […]
Asa may come across as a happy-go-lucky fellow. But just like everyone else he has an off day every once in a great while. Ok, so the first and only day I can think of it happening was one day in 2017 when I tried to surprise Asa with a Hawaiian themed staycation. So on […]
After enjoying a relatively mild summer, Mother Nature has turned up the heat here. Problem is, with the air conditioner and fans on full blast inside our home, my brother Chuck Billy is confused and thinks it is cool outside too. This has lead to a heated discussion between him and Mom as Chuck Billy […]
Lately we’ve had two types of weather here in Maine: hot and humid, or cold and rainy. Although there are some who enjoy the heat and hate the rain, Asa has the opposite perspective. He embraces the rain and enjoys every refreshing minute playing in it. So today we debut his tribute to rainy summer […]
Is your lawn looking a bit ruff this spring? Before you attempt the backbreaking work of rototilling, let us tear up, oops I mean, aerate your yard! No expensive equipment needed. No arduous work required. In fact, we’ll make it a pleasant afternoon. You just throw our ball repeatedly, and Asa and I will happily […]
Out there lurking among the tall grass and decaying leaves waiting to pounce is a nemesis to dogs even worse than squirrels – Ticks! Worst yet, it is virtually impossible to avoid them. Even dogs who only spend a brief time outside can pick up a hungry Tick. So unless you want to become a […]
The spring backyard building boom has begun! I’ve been watching the birds and other critters hard at work making nests. I’ve also seen a lot of posts lately of dogs sharing their fur to help their feathered friends. However, I want to caution that NOT all dog fur is safe to leave out for birds! […]
On the last official day of winter, I’d like to wish it a fond farewell. Sure it got off to a slow start in January, with me begging Mother Nature to deliver my order for snow. However, in the end, winter lived up to its promises of snow, fun, and cuddles by the fireside. As […]
