I make it a point to always read the fine print when looking for a dog friendly vacation rental. Although a place may claim to be a pet friendly summer cottage, some rental properties are very specific about what they will allow. Most have rather routine rules. However, while recently researching where we’ll stay this […]
It’s no secret that Mom and Dad are big fans of ghost shows. So while at our rental beach cottage, Asa and I came up with a little plan to scare them. It was suppose to be harmless good fun, until the tables were turned and Asa was the one who got scared! His Imaginary […]
The goal for our vacation was to enjoy the “quiet side” of Acadia National Park, exploring trails off the beaten path away from the more popular attractions. However, it didn’t take long for us to notice no matter how remote the trail, solitary hikers would find us, and inevitably stop to admire Asa and myself. […]
Mom and Dad are creatures of habit. Therefore, once a year Asa and I like to shake things up by taking them on vacation. So last week we surprised Mom and Dad by heading to Acadia National Park in Maine for an adventure! Now when traveling with Humans, especially Helicopter Dog Parents, it is important […]
I can’t believe Mom and Dad have been keeping this secret from me. Hotels are AWESOME! Oops, there I go again barking at you. Sorry, it’s just that I’m still really excited about our trip last weekend to Dog Mountain. It was the first time I stayed in a hotel! From the moment we arrived, […]
We attended the New England Golden Jubilee at Dog Mountain!!!! BEST WEEKEND EVER! Sorry for barking, I’m just really excited. We experienced so many firsts this weekend! First time staying in a hotel! First time meeting over 100 Golden Retrievers in one place! First time Asa met his biological Dad!!! Our first visit to Dog […]
To Boldly Go Where No Goldens Have Gone Before! Ok, so other Golden Retrievers have probably been there before us, but this was our first trip to the Bold Coast of Maine! The Bold Coast is the area north of Acadia, more commonly known as Down East Maine. But because “flatlanders” from “away” frequently refer […]
To get a full appreciation for what I’m about to tell you, please hum the theme song from Baywatch while you read this. In my last post I praised my little brother’s innate ability to swim. As our vacation continued, Asa proved to me that he was ready to put his skills to good use. So […]
Our vacation continues! This is Asa’s first time at the lake, and as a good big brother I was prepared to teach him how to swim. When I was a little scamp Lemmy wasn’t exactly a good teacher. Ok, he was awful! Lemmy was a bit of curmudgeon and wasn’t good at explaining things, so […]
Mom and Dad have a few days off from work. Time to head to my Grandparents’ lake house for a vacation! But before we head out, we need to pack. Asa and I have become accustomed to certain creature comforts. Therefore when we go on vacation it is like packing for a small army. Amongst […]
