activity tracker | Ammo the Dachshund

Don’t you wish it could be summer forever? I sure do, because I always seem to have so much fun in the summer!

Before we get to my adventures though, let me give a shoutout to my special sponsors & affiliates! Thanks to them I’m able to bring you exciting posts, so make sure you give them some love and check out what great products they carry!

I also wanted to tell you all about the fun new magazine that my friends at Everyone Loves A Dachshund are hoping to have printed. First of it’s kind it’s called Good Hooman and it’s a Dachshund lifestyle magazine written specifically for us Dachshunds! How cool is that! You won’t want to miss it, so be sure to check out their IndieGoGo fund so they can launch the magazine – and snag one at a great introductory price!

And now onto my July Adventures..

I got my running in with my new activity tracker from Poof!

I contemplated starting my own lake school.

I celebrated yet another happy month with Baby P.

I had a blast turning my likeness into Pop Art.

I went on a shopping trip with my sister.

I shared some of the fun summer products I’m currently digging.

I visited the pool.

I got detained on the farm.

And that brings us to August! Can you believe it’s just about been an entire year since my sister Baby P was born? Boy, time really flies when you’re having fun.

What sort of adventures do you think I should go on for the rest of the summer?

When this small box arrived at my doorstep from my friends at Poof, I had no idea that it was going to be able to communicate a whole slew of things about me to my parents.

At first I was slightly concerned it was going to giveaway all my secrets. Like where I hide my half eaten bones, and which of mom’s newly planted flowers I’ve peed on. But my mind was quickly put at ease when mom explained that Poof was actually an activity tracker – not a secret spiller.

Poof makes two different models, the Pea & the Bean. I decided to test out the Bean because it has a replaceable battery that lasts up to 6 months! (while the Pea is slightly smaller and contains a rechargeable battery that lasts up to 60 days.

Mom installed the Poof on my collar with one of these rubitz clips (that is not included – but something I already had at home).

Armed with my Poof, it was time to get busy exercising (or not exercising depending on how I felt that day)! Or perhaps I’d decide to take a dip in the lake that day – which is fine, because they are waterproof!

At the end of my day of activity mom put her smart phone next to my tracker to sync up to the free poof app so that she could collect all the data it received that day.

I was thrilled to see that on my very first day I had already met my exercise goal – and hadn’t napped near as much as I thought!

My favorite part though was seeing how I compared next to all the other dogs out there! I could see my ranking with other dogs my size (and I’ve been pretty consistently in the top 10 since I started using it), and also how I ranked globally too.

It’s a really fun motivator to get me out there running and playing even more than I already do – so that I can beat my high score!

And for the days I’m feeling extra social I can even connect with other dogs and dogs owners by sharing some dashing pictures of myself. The verdict is still out on if I can also use this as a dating app to meet some girl dachshunds that have the same affinity for exercise as I do.

In case the lady dachshunds are watching my poof ranking, I better start exercising now!

The really cool part about the Poof activity trackers is that 100% of their profits go to animal welfare through the GreaterGood.org program. Their donations help pay for food, beds, vaccinations, rescue missions and many other resources that help to keep animals safe and healthy.

So if you’d like to checkout just how much sleep, exercise, play, and calories your pup is getting, be sure to check out Poof!

You can even save 50% off your order with code AMMO
