Harley, Ammo and the RC Car

ammo the dachshund and harley the RottweilerIt’s been a while since I’ve gotten to play with my neighbor Harley. So over the weekend I popped over to her house and we had a little fun chasing her Dad’s RC Car in the backyard.

Ok well mostly I watched Harley chase the car while I bossed her around (she really has no idea she is a Rottweiler). But it was a blast!

Happy Thanksgiving!

It’s Turkey Day here in the states! And you know what that means….Turkey!

Last week I asked my Facebook fans what I should wear for my Thanksgiving Day feast, and I got some great suggestions. I figured it was a pretty safe bet that my bow tie would be a Turkey-Day hit.

It’s dressy, but not too dressy that I can’t still run around outside and wrestle with my bestest buddy Trooper.

But I just know as we approach “meal time” that my Turkey-Day bow tie just won’t cut it.

Which is exactly why I packed my stretchy pants this year!

With all those goodies around today I’m extra glad I’ll have a bit more room around the waist.

I’m one smart cookie!

So before I scamper off to have some fun with my family I wanted to say…… I’m thankful for each and every one of you! Knowing that I can brighten your day with my adventures is seriously they highlight of my day. Thanks for taking the time to read, leave me comments, and generally just give a dog the warm fuzzies inside.

So Happy Thanksgiving to all of you!

Mastering the Kicker Box

You might remember that for my Birthday back in the beginning of October I received a gift from my parents called the Kicker Box. This box with it’s confusing levers that held my treats captive was a source of frustration for me for the first week or so. But, truth be told, it’s no secret as to how stubborn us Dachshunds are – and I couldn’t give up on the Kicker Box without a fight.

I’m now a master at dispensing my treats from the box, and to prove it to you my mom shot this video of me working for my breakfast this morning:

Do you think your dog could master the Kicker BoxAmmo the Dachshund

 

Disclosure: I was not paid or perked to write about this product, I just wanted to share with my fans this fun toy.

An Acme Halloween

After much anticipation I’m now ready to reveal my epic Halloween Costume! Many of you took guesses on my facebook page as to what I would be wearing this year – and some of you even guessed right!

This year I dressed as the famous Wile E. Coyote from the popular Looney Toons Cartoon!

I just couldn’t pass up the opportunity to chase that speedy Roadrunner, not to mention Wile E. Coyote had some pretty cool accessories via the Acme Catalog. The dude knew how to shop!

Mom helped me make a coyote hood for my costume out of fabric, wire, velcro, and hot glue – and yes, I am aware that it makes me look irresistibly cute! You’re welcome.

My Acme rocket may have not been from the official “Acme Catalog”, but mom did her best to build it’s likeness out of an old soda bottle, some cereal boxes, paint, elastic & rope.

So with my outfit complete I was ready to start hunting that roadrunner!

Drat!

I stick my tongue out at the pesky roadrunner.

Plan B involves ropes, I’ll let you know how that pans out.

Friends Forever

When your legs just aren’t long enough you’re allowed to use the coffee table to play tug of war with your best friend. It’s in the official rules.

Lately I’ve been reminiscing about all the years I’ve spent playing with my best friend Trooper – mostly because next week is my Birthday, my 4th Birthday!

Ammo the Dachshund // Friends Forever

Since we met (when I was all of 8 weeks old), not much has changed. And yes, I won our wrestling matches back then too.

But despite the fact that I can easily out wrestle my poor buddy, we share a very special bond.

Even if he did steal my party hat and try eat me last year on my Birthday!

 

Stay tuned, because next week is BIRTHDAY WEEK! Eeeek! I’m so excited, we’re going to have so much fun! Ammo the Dachshund

Dog Shaming – My Embarrassing Secrets

Have you heard of the new (gone viral) website called Dog Shamming? Essentially it’s a quirky little website dedicated to embarrassing and humiliating canines by putting our “shame” on blast for the World to see. Cruel right?

I must admit though, I did have a good chuckle at the expense of a few of these doxies….

I was having such a good time laughing my head off at these poor saps, that is until Mom reminded me that I have a few things I should be shameful of too. Who me? Yea right?

Backyard Super Hero

I was playing with my next door neighbor, Harley the Rottweiler, when I happened to mention that I’m a Super Hero. She laughed and said “That’s silly Ammo, you don’t even have a Super Hero outfit”.

So I quickly bounded inside to show her that yes, in fact I do have a Super Hero outfit, and it is so awesome she won’t believe her eyes!

Behold the awesome-ness that is Super Ammo, protecter of canines and hunter of groundhogs.

I can burrow down a groundhog hole as fast and lightning and my paws are like rocket-powered shovels.

I visit the elderly and make children giggle.

I also like unicorns and believe in magic fairy dust….

Harley is sooooo jealous! Ammo the Dachshund

Glamour Shots

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!
