Friday Fetch: Lasso

Posted on by

Now granted I’d much rather be leash free, but sometimes I like being connected to my “person”. Makes me feel a little safe and secure!

So that’s why today’s Friday Fetch is the Lasso retractable leash.

All other leashes let you do one thing- walk the dog. That’s great if that’s all you want to do. But what if you need to stop and run a quick errand while with your dog? Lasso™ is the answer. Just press, lock and go. With over 12,000 dogs injured a year from untied leads, don’t take the risk! Designed for the owner “on the run” with patent-pending quick-click technology. And- it’s also a better everyday retractable leash – more attractive and industrial grade. Beauty…with brains.

You can shop for the Lasso here as well as watch a pretty sweet video!

Friday Fetch: Weenie Sweaters

Posted on by

Ok, so I know that NOT everyone out there that reads my blog is a Dachshund, but I just can’t help but come across some of those fabulous products that have DACHSHUND written all over them. So if you aren’t a Dachshund, or you don’t have a Dachshund friend (for shame!) then look away. Otherwise, check out these totally awesome sweaters made to fit the short and long!

Every Stitch Counts makes sweaters (and neck warmers called snoods) from all-natural re purposed virgin fibers. All of the wools are felted making them especially strong, warm and weather “proof”.

Since my Pennsylvania winters can be a little harsh for me, I decided to order myself a sweater! Being that I’m a Tweenie (for you non-doxie folks that means I’m too big to be a miniature dachshund and too small to be a standard dachshund), there wasn’t a selection of sweaters in my size. But luckily Susan from Every Stitch Counts said she would make one specifically to fit me!

So if you are looking for something to keep your little Dachshund friend warm, be sure to shop the handmade shop of Every Stitch Counts. P.S. Tell them Ammo sent you!

Frodo the Dachshund models his sweater and snood! Doesn’t he look super warm?

And here’s me in my new sweater!

Look! I can even stretch really long and it still fits!

You better believe I’m super warm and toasty out at the farm now!


P.S. I was not paid to write this post, I just like warm and fuzzy sweaters!

Friday Fetch: Doggie Clutch

Posted on by

Today’s Friday Fetch is find brought to you via Dog Milk!

If I was a girl I’d totally carry around one of these beauties. Well also if I had arms. Or I actually had belongings to put in it!

Orwell Dog Clutches are available from Tsurubride on Etsy. And don’t worry, even if you don’t see your favorite dog listed….you can get a custom design made!

Of course I have an affinity towards the Dachshund clutch! Does it come with a helmet and cape?

Friday Fetch: Balloon Dog

Posted on by

Everyone knows I love a good circus trick. I jump through a hoop, perform on a pedestal – really all that’s missing is the clown-dog collar…..and maybe a balloon animal or two. That’s why today I’m sharing with you this super cool find – Wearable Balloon Animal Dogs!

The best part, you can’t pop him!

You can get these cute Balloon Dog Brooches in white, black, and red at Another Empire.

Friday Fetch: Doxie Sculptures

Posted on by

Today’s Friday Fetch is from Bunny with a Tool Belt, where cute and colorful wooden sculptures is the name of the game. They just make me smile! And what’s even better then a whimsical sculpture, but a sculpture of a cute little Dachshund, because we all know that Dachshunds are the cutest dogs there ever were! Sorry but I am a little biased, do you blame me?

Here are two of my favorite Dachshund Sculptures.

The rockin’ out Doxie.

And the Double Rainbow Dachshund, you know, because double rainbows are AMAZING.

Friday Fetch: Flossers

Posted on by

Today’s Friday Fetch just makes me giggle. Seriously, if you gotta floss your teeth (and mom says you gotta) you might as well get your floss from a dog’s booty.

DOG BUTT FLOSS comes in 5 different colors: Clifford red, bright green, Blue’s blue, Ms. Piggy Pink, and black

You can get these nifty floss holders from fanimals on Etsy.

Friday Fetch: Silly Pet Blanket

Posted on by

Today’s Friday Fetch is a find from one of my pal’s! And what a find it is!

These silly pet blankets from rikarika are totally awesome. Scare your friends into thinking you’ve been swallowed by a Narwhal or even a Polar Bear.

And if you’re like me and always up for a good burrow, then these would be perfect for snuggling into on a cold winter day! Does Santa do layaway?

Friday Fetch: Bubbles!

Posted on by

Seriously…these are some AWESOME Bubbles! It’s the BUBBLE BUDDY!

Bacon scented bubbles for dogs? Now what’s better than that? (well aside from the BBQ Chicken & Peanut Butter scents) I seriously hope Santa had room for this in my stocking this year. You hear that Santa? I hope it’s not too late!!

Maybe if you were good this year you can get a bubble buddy too….or you could just buy your own here from Barker & Meowsky.

And if the “Bubble Buddy” is anything like the Bubble Buddy from SpongeBob Squarepants…….that would be fantastic!

Happy Christmas Eve!

Friday Fetch: Photobooth Dogs

Posted on by

If you didn’t already know, I have a love of photobooths. Perhaps it’s because my mom immortalized me into photobooth art. (Check it out here). Whatever the case may be, I’m digging this book right now.

“Photobooth Dogs” by Cameron Woo which can be found on ModCloth

The book is filled with vintage photobooth photos that contain some super cute pooches. It makes me wish there was a photobooth in my town!
