The other day while out on a walk through the park I spotted something that made me a little crazy.
I claim it was a squirrel, mom thinks it was a leaf, and we pretty much agree to disagree.
We may never really know what was up that tree for sure, but it sure was fun trying to catch it!
Does your dog like to chase things up trees? Any brave squirrel hunters in this group? 
So it’s the moment you’ve all been waiting for, the reveal of my 2015 Halloween costume! All you Guardians of the Galaxy fans are going to love me as…..
Incase you didn’t catch the movie yet, don’t worry, I won’t give away any spoilers here.
Just know this…..
…with me on duty the Galaxy just got a whole lot safer! Pew! Pew!
Thanks to my mom and her handy glue gun I bet you would never have known that I’m not the real Rocket Raccoon from the Guardians of the Galaxy. I probably had you fooled didn’t I?
Probably a bit more convincing when my best pal Groot shows up to the party though!
Now if you’ll excuse me, me and my pals Star-Lord, Gamora, and Groot need to break out of jail so we can go defend the galaxy.
Happy Halloweenie Friends!
So you might have already caught a sneak peek at my new pal, Mr. Bones, a few weeks ago when he helped out with my Martha Stewart Pets photoshoot.
Well, he actually came home to live with me in the very beginning of October. Mom says he’s from an “adoption place” called Target.
While I’m not quite sure how I feel about sharing my home and toys with another dog, the good news is he doesn’t eat very much!
And just for kicks, here’s what happened when I first met Mr. Bones….
Did you catch that little “jab” I gave him. I had to give him a big ole’ bite in the spine…you know, just so he remembers who’s in charge.
Want to see more Mr. Bones fun? You can follow the #skeletondachshund hashtag on Instagram to see all the fun the other Dachshunds out there are having with their Mr. Bones clones.
Rumor has it the first day of school is just around the corner.
Since I’ve never been to school (well technically I did visit a couple of elementary schools, one time my pony came too!), I wanted to see what all the fuss was about.
So I put on my bestest school outfit and my reading glasses. Packed my lunch and filled my backpack with all my important school supplies (like cookies and toys).
Since I’ve never ridden the school bus before (aside from that time I went to the goat races, oh yea and the Fair Hill International Event), I decided to park myself outside my house and wait for it to come pick me up for my very first day.
All that waiting for the school bus was starting to make me hungry, and my lunch was starting to look pretty darn good.
And you know what, waiting for the school bus isn’t all that interesting. In fact, it’s kinda boring.
After I waited for about an hour, mom reminded me that school didn’t actually start until NEXT WEEK, and I still had an entire weekend of SUMMER BREAK!
Thank goodness!!! Because Summer was starting to sound a lot more fun than going to school anyway.
And it’s a good thing school wasn’t starting yet anyway, because I wouldn’t have had any lunch left!
HAPPY ALMOST FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL EVERYONE!
My best bud Trooper and I know a thing or two about wrestling. After all we have been doing it since we were just wee pups.
So when we get a new toy, like this Invincibles Snake toy our friends at Outward Hound recently sent us, we tend to go a little nuts with the wrestling!
And when we’re all done wrestling, new toys make the perfect pillows!
If you’d like to snag one of these toys from Outward Hound, you can use code AMMO for 15% off your order thanks to our friends at Outward Hound!
Does your dog have a favorite toy that makes them go crazy with wrestling fever?

My pals over at Chewy.com recently sent me some fun new products to test out. The KONG Active Cat Play Mat and these Free Ranger no stink Bully Stix!
The Bully Stixs were AWESOME, but honestly, I couldn’t see what the big fuss was about the Play Mat was.
But then mom pulled out a bottle of this Kitty Kush Catnip* that we picked up at BlogPaws and sprinkled a little bit on the activity mat.

Out of nowhere my pal Spider the Kitty showed up and was all about the Kong Play Mat!
It didn’t take Spider long to kick me off the mat as she rolled, crinkled (it has this fun crinkle sound just like a plastic water bottle), and scratched around on it.
Spider was looking like she was having so much fun with the play mat that Trooper and I were a bit concerned we were missing out on something really fun.
That’s ok though, because Spider may have had her play mat, but Trooper and I had Bully Stixs! And with these awesome benefits:
…mom felt good about letting us snack on them whenever we wanted!
And snack we did!
Sorry Spider, you won’t share your play mat, and we won’t share our Bully Stix! Agree to disagree…..or whatever the saying should be here!

One of my favorite days of the month is BarkBox day. The day when my monthly subscription of goodies arrives at my door.
Everything is always so yummy and fun to play with that I can hardly wait to dive right in. It’s seriously THE BEST DAY EVER.
That is until my mom says it’s time for bed! This is what my face looks like when I’m told I’ll have to hold off playing with my Barkbox until tomorrow. I call it the “what the what?” face.
So reluctantly I get into bed, with my full Super Hero outfit on of course, because real Super Heroes are always ready at a moments notice.
I fight dreamland for as long as I can, when I suddenly remember….
“Dad! You forgot to read me my bedtime story!!”
Super Heroes can’t go to bed without a bedtime story!
Thankfully my Dad obliges, and reads me my favorite book, SuperDog; The Heart of a Hero. (which by the way, I love this book so much that I even helped read it to an elementary school class).
The adventures of Dex the Dachshund drift me off to dreamland and I have visions of saving cats from trees, and helping old ladies cross the street.
The sandman is about to pay a visit to me, when I suddenly remember…
I can’t possibly go to bed without the Star Stuffie that came in my BarkBox! What if he gets scared in that box all by himself at night?
And you know what Dad, Mr. Star missed the whole SuperDog story, so you’re going to have to read it again!
Goodnight sweet friends! Hopefully the world will continue to be a safe place even while this hero is getting some shut eye.
And incase you’re wondering, my BarkBox was still waiting for me the next day when I woke up!
If you’d like to fetch your dog a reason to fight bedtime too, you can grab a subscription to BarkBox with code AMMO for 10% OFF!
You can also snag a FREE Bully Stick (my favorite) from the BarkShop for all orders with code AMMO.
Does your dog have a hard time falling asleep when they get new toys too? I’m always trying to sneak toys into my bed at night!
Happy 4th of July Furiends!
Don’t lie, we all know this is exactly what you’re doing today! Nothing wrong with that (I’m doing it too….although maybe not the beach part, but I sure wish I was). But I never forget to celebrate the Independence of the good old US of A too!
I’m Team America all the way! Happy Independence Day! xoxo,
Since today is the start of a long holiday weekend for Independence Day so I’m taking off early! You better believe I’ll be doing a whole lot of this too…
Don’t forget to save some hot dogs for me!!
Happy Long Weekend Everyone!
Sometimes when you’re a dog you just feel like you’re not being heard. Maybe it’s because humans and dogs don’t always speak the same language, and maybe it’s because they just CHOOSE not to listen to what we’re saying. Regardless, every once in a while I need to make a little noise about it….
So next time your dog “yells” at you, you better pay attention, because we have LOTS TO SAY!
Does your dog bark/yell at you too? What do you think he’s trying to say?
