Most of you know I have a day job as shop greeter at my mom’s small-town custom framing store. But after hours I turn into “Ammo the stuntdog”! I perform super amazing tricks with my Painting Pony friends – sometimes traveling with them too. Most of the time Chincoteague Minnow is my traveling buddy, because he’s the most famous of the trick ponies. Minnow thinks I’m his sidekick as he wows the crowds with his ability to paint and do tricks. But I KNOW that I carry the show with my death-defying leaps through my hoop, and my ability to play dead (and come back alive). And we all know who looks cuter in a stunt helmet!
This past weekend Minnow and I took a trip to the Ludwigs Corner Horse Show to entertain the crowds. This performance was EXTRA dare devilish because we were met with 22MPH winds due to Hurricane Earl. But I bravely put on my stunt helmet and continued on with the performance, I wasn’t gonna let a little wind keep me from making all the children laugh!
I laugh in your face Hurricane Earl!

Oh Ammo, I really wanted to come see you – my daughter was coming home from the Navy for a visit, and we were going to stop by. But the hurricane not only made a lot of wind for you, it kept her from coming home. So I ended up working and wasn’t able to see you. I am going to make a better effort the next time you’re doing a show. I love the picture when you are laughing at the hurricane. You are such a tough little boy – not even a hurricane scares you:)
I’m sorry I didn’t get to meet you. The winds were really bad! I almost got blown away!!
But don’t worry, I’m sure I’ll be performing again soon!
whee! you are such a good boy, ammo! glad to see your duds are hanging in there!! 🙂
I guess I didn’t realize that you performed as well! I read about your adventures today. Don’t know why I hadn’t seen it before.
I wish my dachshund had a job!
