The special day of love is just around the corner on February 14th, have you gotten something for your Valentine yet? Well have no fear, Super Ammo is here, and I have just what you need in my Etsy Shop!

Happy Heart Day! 
Just in time for Valentine’s Day I’ve designed some brand-new notepads that are now available in my Etsy Shop, FlyingHero.
Ok fine, mom helped a bit.
Each notepad design comes with a Dachshund pen for all your super adorable writing needs.
I can’t help but ooooh and ahhhh over their cuteness.
My notepad sets are $12 each and would make the perfect gift for your Valentine this year! Or you could always just keep it for yourself!
You can fetch my new notepads and pens HERE.
One of the things mom got for Christmas this year was a new camera lens.
Dubbed a “nifty fifty” lens, mom’s new lens has been praised by professional pet photographers for it’s use in taking portraits of many a furry friends.
While mom is busy learning how to take better pictures with said camera lens, I bet you can guess who her guinea pig has been.
Although it’s still to-be-determined if this lens is capable of capturing my stunning good looks.
Oh, who am I kidding, the camera loves me!
Regardless, it’s pretty exhausting being a guinea pig, and I think I’ve earned a 3 hour nap after this photoshoot.

The day has finally come! It’s time to announce the official release of the brand-new Super Pony DVD, staring the talented Minnow from Painting Pony…..and ME!
Thanks to my talented Uncle Taylor and Depthink Productions, we began filming for the DVD this past summer, and I’m so excited that it’s finally ready to share with everyone!
Check out the DVD Trailer:
ON THIS DVD
Trainer, Kyley DiLuigi, introduces us to Super Pony, the alter ego of the talented Chincoteague Pony, Minnow! Watch as he shows us some of his favorite trick performances, many of which have been performed at expos, fairs, schools, and even the Annual Chincoteague Pony Penning. Several performances also include Minnow’s lovable sidekick, Ammo the Dachshund, as well as other members of the Painting Pony crew. In addition to 5 featured videos, this DVD also contains 2 bonus videos: a visit to Iron Horse Farm, home to the Painting Ponies; and a talk given by Kyley about everyone’s favorite Chincoteague Pony, Misty of Chincoteague.
PAINTING PONY
In 2007, Painting Pony was founded when Kyley DiLuigi decided to bring her paints from art school out to the farm where she kept her 14-year-old pony, Minnow. That cold winter day Minnow became the World’s First Painting Chincoteague Pony as he created his very first masterpiece. As it became evident that Minnow had a gift that he truly loved, the paintings he created began to pile higher and higher. Feeling the need to share Minnow’s art with the world, Kyley started PaintingPony.com and the rest is history!
The Super Pony DVD is approx. 20 minutes and is available for purchase at $12 on PaintingPony.com
You’ll get to see performances by me and Minnow as well as me and my buddy Trooper. You even get to see me paint!

Every year it’s tradition for Mom to help me make a Holiday greeting card to send to our friends and family. Last year I decided to spread the cheer to everyone and made my cards available to the public. So since Christmas is just around the corner I decided it was high time I revealed my 2012 Holiday Card Design…
And what’s even more fantastic is that I’m going to be donating 2% of all the proceeds from my 2012 cards to the Main Line Animal Rescue!
My 2011 Holiday Card Design is still available for purchase in my Etsy Shop too….
I’m sure both designs will make your friends and family smile!
The making of my 2012 Holiday card was quite involved, but I promise to show you some more behind-the-scenese photos as we get a bit closer to Christmas.
You can purchase my 2012 Holiday Cards in my Etsy Shop, Flying Hero! The more you purchase, the more I can help the animal rescues!
You might remember that over this past year I’ve been accumulating paintings created by the talented Kim at Yellow Brick Home. First she painted a magnificent painting of me in my super hero cape, then she painted two super cool paintings of my favorite ponies, Minnow, Blitz and Boomer.
Then I realized I needed to make sure my bestest friend in the whole wide world wasn’t left out of all the fun! He is my best friend afterall. So just last week Trooper’s painting from Yellow Brick Home arrived in the mail!
It was just as glorious as I had imagined – especially since I had made sure he sent in the very best pictures of himself.
Of course I couldn’t let Trooper steal the spotlight for very long, and I photo bombed pretty much all of his photos that my mom took of him.
That’s what best friends are for!
You can get your own custom pet paintings from Kim @ Yellow Brick Home (make sure you tell her the cutest Super Hero EVER sent you!)
Disclosure: I was not paid or perked to write about Yellow Brick Home, I just think Kim’s paintings are oh-so-cool!
P.S. Did you see that I wasn’t the only one that dressed as Wile E. Coyote for Halloween this year? My Canadian Pal Crusoe, the Celebrity Dachshund also broke out his Wile E. Coyote for all his fans. Although I hear he’s also having trouble with his Acme Rocket…..I knew we should have gotten the warranty!
**This Giveaway is no longer accepting entries.** Congrats to our winner, Annie H. who plans to get a print made of her lab/doxie mix, Marshmellow!
A couple of weeks ago I was contacted by my pals at Printcopia, an online resource for getting your photos made into canvas prints and other printed materials. They offered up an 11″x14″ canvas print, so I could take their services for a whirl. Being the art-loving pooch that I am, I surely couldn’t pass up the opportunity!
But before I could order my canvas print I had to choose which photo to use – not such an easy task when your parents take hundreds of photos of you on a weekly basis.
After pouring over thousands of photos of me I finally settled on this one taken during one of our big blizzards a few years ago. Adorable isn’t it? You can ooooh and ahhhh if you like.
Then I hopped on the computer and proceeded to go through the process of ordering my canvas print from Printcopia.
After uploading my chosen photo I had the option to resize it. I also noticed you can even easily upload photos from Instagram and Facebook, which makes the process even easier!
Then I selected a border option (I chose to mirror my image) for how my photo would look on the edges of my canvas & picked a display method too. Finally it was off to checkout, with the promise that a week or so later my new print would be arriving in the mail.
When my canvas arrived I could hardly wait to put it on display in my house! I love it so much that I’m already dreaming of which of my favorite Instagram photos I’d love to get printed to hang on my wall.
And now because it’s your VERY LUCKY DAY! Printcopia has offered to giveaway an 11×14 Canvas Print to one Lucky reader! How awesome is that?

Some of you may have noticed already, but I’ve been keeping a little secret for the past couple of months, I’ve decided to open up my very own Etsy Shop, Flying Hero!
Aptly named after me, your friendly neighborhood flying hero, my etsy shop will be selling cute photographic prints, cards and even calendars (coming soon) with my mug on them!
My mom and I have been creating, making, and selling greeting cards in our retail shop for years now – but we decided it was high time we make them available to everyone.
So if you are looking for a way to bring laughter, smiles, and little dose of cuteness to those that you love, make sure you check out Flying Hero. In the coming months we hope to have more items available for purchase.
And not to worry, I’ll still be working my painting magic with the amazing Painting Ponies. So if you are interested in original artwork by yours truly, be sure to stop by the Painting Pony Etsy Shop.

Seeing as how I’m now a movie star with my recent Painting Pony Video Debut (not to mention I’ve been on Animal Planet too), I figured it was high time I did what every celebrity does…….GET GLAMOUR SHOTS!
So I went to my favorite portrait studio, Glamour Shots by Mom, and let the camera do it’s magic.
The camera loves me, don’t you think? I’m GLORIOUS!
Next time I’ll have to get my majestic unicorn to join in on the fun. It will be epic.
