Instinct Rawboost Treats Product Review and Giveaway from Chewy.com

Disclaimer: This review and giveaway is brought to you by Chewy.

My pals over at Chewy.com recently offered me the chance to test out some of Nature’s Variety Instinct Rawboost Minis Treats in the chicken flavor. I’ve secretly always wondered what eating raw was like – as it seems to have become a trend within the dog community – and trying out these raw treats seemed like a great way to jump into it.

Instinct Rawboost Treats // Product Review and Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Mom’s a bit too “chicken” to let me eat all my meals raw, but with these Rawboost treats I can have a taste of raw meat without needing to eat my main meals raw. These Rawboost treats offer up real, all natural chicken and pure raw ingredients – in a freeze dried treat form.

Instinct Rawboost Treats // Product Review and Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

These tiny treats boast only 2 calories per treat, perfect for us dogs that like to watch our figure, and they are a great size to use as training treats too.

Of course when I smelled that burst of raw chicken flavor I dropped everything and came sprinting over. Cricket better watch out, because when I smell chicken nothing is going to get in my way!

Instinct Rawboost Treats // Product Review and Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Nothing is ever truly free at my house, so mom made me work for my treats, but as you can see from the video below – I’d pretty much to anything for a taste of these scrumptious chicken bites!

Prime Pet Supply Review & Giveaway

Prime Pet Supply Review & Giveaway // Ammo the DachshundDisclaimer: This review and giveaway is brought to you by Prime Pet Supply.

My friends over at Prime Pet Supply recently offered me a chance to take their new pet products website for a spin. Shopping, now how did they know that would win me over?!

Prime Pet Supply stocks only the best and most natural pet foods, treats and supplies available on the market. So I hopped on their website in search of a few products to try, and picked out these fun goodies:

Prime Pet Supply Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Once my goodies arrived at my doorstep I wasted no time in digging right in!

Prime Pet Supply Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

The hardest part was choosing what to try first!

Prime Pet Supply Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Two of the toys I picked up were the Kong Tugga Wubba Dog Toy and the Bionic Bone Dog Toy. Both of these toys are designed for tough chewers (which totally describes me) and after a couple weeks of play they are still holding up very well. The nice thing about the Bionic Bone is that it’s designed to be stuffed with treats – I’m thinking bully sticks just as soon as mom picks me up a few!

Prime Pet Supply Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Next I tested some Etta Says! Freeze Dried Chicken Liver Treats, which I’m not gonna lie, I mostly chose these because there was a picture of a cute little dachshund on the front.

Prime Pet Supply Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

I’m a big fan of freeze dried dog treats, especially since these are made in america, all natural, and contain no preservatives. Gotta love treats that taste good and are good for you! Yum!

Prime Pet Supply Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

The next product was something my mom picked out for me. Honestly, I wasn’t that thrilled about it because supposedly it’s supposed to mask that stinky dog smell that I work so hard to achieve.

Prime Pet Supply Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

The Earthbath All Natural Deodorizing Spritz in Vanilla Almond is designed to make your stinky dog smell much better. Mom was quite excited about this product, and I guess I can kinda be on board if it means I will get less frequent baths. I do admit the Vanilla Almond smell was quite pleasing, but not too over powering – and a bonus is it’s supposed to make my skin softer and my coat sleek and shiny!

Now the last product, and probably my favorite, was the Powzer Flash and Dash Ball. This thing was seriously cool. When the tough outer ball is shaken (or on impact) it lights up inside for over 70 hours of play. I had so much fun playing with this ball in the dark, just see for yourself….

Overall I thought Prime Pet Supply had some great products, and I also like to see that they carry a lot of all natural and healthy for you products – because that just means my mom is more likely to buy them for me!

And now for the best part…

Voyagers K9 Product Review & Giveaway

Disclaimer: This review and giveaway is brought to you by Voyagers K9.

Voyagers K9 Apparel is a company that I am already pretty familiar with – having owned two of their custom made coats for several years now. So when I got the chance to test out one of their raincoats, I did a little happy dance (in the rain of course).

Voyagers K9 Apparel for Dogs // Product Review // Ammo the Dachshund

The unique thing about these coats are that they can be custom made to fit your dog, and not just pure breeds – ANY BREED OF DOG. So I sent in my measurements and pretty soon there was a package waiting at my doorstep with this spiffy new red raincoat that fits me oh-so-perfectly. I mean just look how tailored it fits, which is no easy feat for an oddly shaped dachshund body.

Voyagers K9 Apparel for Dogs // Product Review // Ammo the Dachshund

Unlike their winter and cold weather coats, this raincoat is light weight with a mesh lining – meaning even though it’s summer I don’t have to worry about getting overheated in it.

Voyagers K9 Apparel for Dogs // Product Review // Ammo the Dachshund

I love the attached hood as it is the perfect for keeping my little ears dry, but I also have the option to unvelcro the front and fold it over too.

Voyagers K9 Apparel for Dogs // Product Review // Ammo the Dachshund

The coats from Voyagers K9 Apparel also come with holes to attach a leash to a collar and optional ones to attach to a harness as well.

Voyagers K9 Apparel for Dogs // Product Review // Ammo the Dachshund

And my final test of my spiffy new raincoat was to see how it faired in the rain – which as luck would have it a storm was rolling in on the farm!

Voyagers K9 Apparel for Dogs // Product Review // Ammo the Dachshund

I started off slow – testing my new coat inside under the drops of rain that were bouncing into the barn.

Voyagers K9 Apparel for Dogs // Product Review // Ammo the Dachshund

Each drop beaded up on my coat and kept me perfectly dry underneath, but the true test would be romping in the puddles outside! Check it out for yourself in my instagram videos below:

My new raincoat even kept me dry enough that I wanted to take a potty break outside in the rain – now that’s saying something!

The fact that I didn’t even need a bath afterwards is proof that this is one of the best raincoats out there! And if it’s anything like my winter jackets from Voyagers K9 (which have lasted me for over 3 years now), then you know it will hold up to the rigors of farm life!

So now onto the super awesome news for you!

Easy Scoop A Poop Product Review & Giveaway

Disclaimer: This review and giveaway is brought to you by Easy Scoop A Poop.

Today we’re going to talk about doggie doo doo! You know, those nice little presents of stuff that your dog leaves for you in your backyard (you’re welcome by the way). Well thanks to my friends over at Easy Scoop A Poop, we have a better way for you pet owners to deal with all those smelly little presents!

Easy Poop A Scoop Product Review and Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

With the Easy Scoop A Poop product you no longer have to FEEL your pet’s waste. Honestly, I wouldn’t really know what thats like on account of I never have to clean up after myself (it’s good to be a dog), but according to my mom, it’s not the greatest job in the world.

Easy Poop A Scoop Product Review and Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

This portable poop scooper comes with a roll of bags (with refills available) just inside the lid for easy access.

Easy Poop A Scoop Product Review and Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Now for the sake of demonstrating how this product works I was more than happy to offer up some of my own little piles, but mom kindly suggested we use something a little less gross – you know, just incase you are eating lunch or something. So you can thank me later, but I found this little apple in my backyard that I’m going to use to represent my little “piles”.

Easy Poop A Scoop Product Review and Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

So to use the Poop A Scoop you simply pull out a bag and insert your hand into the plastic handles – and then into a clean bag just as you normally would to pick up your dog’s business.

Then simply pick up the mess and invert the bag!

Now I will say that I did make mom test this out on some REAL “apples”, and it worked just as well! Just check out how easy it is to use in the video below:

The Easy Scoop A Poop:

  • Product shields your hand from pet waste warmth and texture felt through a bag.
  • Small enough to fit in your pocket or use the carbiner to clip to your pet’s leash.
  • It’s made with recycled plastic, minimizing landfills’s impact on the  environment.

Kong Premium Treats Product Review & Giveaway

Kong Premium Treats Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

I recently got the chance to take the new line of KONG Premium Treats for a spin; I’m sure nearly every dog has a kong just laying around their house begging to be stuffed with yummies – I know I do!

I was excited to try this new line of treats because they boast:

  • No wheat, corn or soy
  • No artificial colors or flavors
  • No animal byproducts
  • Made in USA

I don’t know about you, but it’s so much easier to get my mom to buy me treats when they are made from stuff that’s good for me!

Kong Premium Treats Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

First up I decided to test the Chicken Mini Meat Bites, these little nuggets looked just the right size for me.

Kong Premium Treats Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

With the first ingredient being chicken, I can attest that these soft chewy treats were oh so yummy. They’re the perfect size to use as training treats and can even can be used to stuff certain kong toys.

Kong Premium Treats Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Next up were the Beef & Cheese Meaty Flavor Bites, which looked to be the perfect fit for a kong that I already owned.

Kong Premium Treats Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

These were just as delicious, but took me extra long to devour because they were inside my Kong – something mom claims is an extra plus, but I think it’s just a waste of time!

Kong Premium Treats Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

For my last taste test I saved my favorite, the Chew Buddies Variety Pack, mostly because what’s not to love about these adorable cookies! They were almost too cute to eat…….but my stomach won out in that battle.

Kong Premium Treats Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

I decided to dive into the T-Rex shaped one first, mostly because I felt a kindred spirit to him since I too have short stubby arms!

Kong Premium Treats Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Mr. T-Rex didn’t last very long, but mom said he helped me fight plaque and tarter buildup with his crunchy body. I’m not really sure what all that means, but if it gets me more cookies then count me in.

Overall I thoroughly enjoyed my Kong Premium Treats taste test – but the best part is that you too can win your very own taste test!!

Kong Premium Treats Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

THREE Lucky winners will receive 1 package of Meaty Flavor Bites Beef & Cheese, 1 package of Mini Meaty Bites Chicken, and 1 package of Small Chew Buddies Variety Pack.
