Friday Fetch: Luxury Dog Beds from Charley Chau

The Charley Chau online shop totally had me at “Snuggle Bed”. Seriously, what’s not to love about a faux fur lined dog bed that you can snuggle in? Not only that, but they also make luxury dog beds in other styles too!

Shedding out Winter Fur with Trooper & Ammo

De-shedding Dogs with Trooper & Ammo the Dachshund

This month my friends at Chewy.com sent me the Furminator Dual Brush to take for a spin. As you know it’s Spring, which in the dog world can also be known as shedding season! While I’m not the kind of dog that needs a ton of de-shedding because of my short coat, I still need brushing occasionally. My buddy Trooper on the other hand, he sheds enough to clothe a whole other dog!

De-shedding Dogs with Trooper & Ammo the Dachshund

With the Furminator Dual Brush we get the best of both worlds. A pin brush on one side for longer coated dogs like Trooper, and a nylon bristle brush on the other side for shorter coated dogs like me.

Brushing 2 dogs with 2 very different coat types was never easier!

Wares for Bears Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

As a dog who loves fashion I’ve learned that there is one thing that will make or break my look…and that’s accessories! Today you are in luck, because I can’t wait to share with you some of my newest accessories from my friends at Wares for Bears.

Wares for Bears Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Trooper and I received some awesome handmade bandanas from Wares for Bears recently, and they totally made us feel the part of farm dogs.

Wares for Bears Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

I mean just look at all that fabulous fringe!

Wares for Bears Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

The Wares for Bears bandanas are all made to fit your own dog’s unique neck size with a snap closure. No need to tie them around your dog’s neck like a traditional bandana.

Wares for Bears also donates 10% of their sales to the Seattle Humane Society, a local animal rescue organization that helps to feed, shelter, care, and re-home dogs in need. Now that’s pretty cool!

Wares for Bears Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

They come in sizes for big and small dogs, and in many various patterns and styles. Trooper and I picked out a few that had that fun farm feel to them.

The really cool part is that they are reversible too. So for the price of one bandana, you can get not one, but two looks…

…polka dots or checks for this one!

And I discovered another fun feature of the Wares for Bears bandanas…..

Superhero Adventures on the Farm

Way back in the fall of last year my buddy Trooper and I had some very special visitors to the farm. Special enough that we had to break out our super hero gear!

Adventures with Max and Duke from Sleepypod // Super Heroes // Ammo the Dachshund

Because if you’re going to meet new friends, then you might as well make sure you look too cool for school! (and also a little intimidating).

Adventures with Max and Duke from Sleepypod // Super Heroes // Ammo the Dachshund

When our special farm guests showed up I’m pretty sure they were quite impressed with mine and Trooper’s super-ness. Our new friends, Max & Duke, turned out to be pretty cool too, because they are the the super brave crash test dummies from Sleepypod!

Adventures with Max and Duke from Sleepypod // Super Heroes // Ammo the Dachshund

Trooper and I spent the day showing Max & Duke just what it’s like to be heroes on the farm. You can read all about our adventures with them on the Sleepypod Blog.

And spoiler alert….there may have been some groundhog holes involved (what’s a trip to the farm without a tour of my holes?)…..

…and perhaps a little pony drool too. (Sorry Duke!).

But you’ll have to find out exactly what went down by heading over to Sleepypod. And make sure you follow them on Facebook to see where Max & Duke are headed next…..perhaps it will even be a town near you! Ammo the Dachshund

Wag & Ramble Pet Soap Review & Giveaway

It’s Spring time. And if there is one thing that goes hand in hand with Spring…..it’s baths for your furry friends. Being a lover of all things stinky myself, I’m all too familiar with the bathtub this time of year. It’s a good thing my new friends over at Wag and Ramble sent me some of their handmade all natural pet soap to take for a whirl.

Wag & Ramble Pet Soap Review & Giveaway

I picked out their Peppermint and Lemongrass soap, but it also comes in Lavender/Eucalyptus & Lavendar/Lemongrass as well.

As much as I prefer the smell of stinky stuff, I have to admit this soap did smell pretty nice.

And if I have to endure bath time, then I guess I might as well enjoy the scent!

Wag & Ramble Pet Soap Review & Giveaway

My mom tried two different methods to applying bar soap to me during bath time (since previously I had only ever used liquid soap). First she applied to to a wash cloth and then rubbed it on my fur.

Wag & Ramble Pet Soap Review & Giveaway

Then she applied the bar directly to me.

The direct approach seemed to work best…..and it didn’t take much soap to get me smelling great.

Wag & Ramble Pet Soap Review & Giveaway

It’s a shame you can’t convey smells through the internet, because after my bath I smelled oh-so-fresh!

Wag & Ramble Pet Soap Review & Giveaway

And I guess it’s not so bad…..although the scent of dirt and horse poo is still my favorite! Once bath time is over there is only one last thing to do…..

Oh The Places You Sleep: Vol. 1

Dogs tend to sleep between 12 – 14 hours a day, and considering that makes up the majority of our day, we sometimes have to get a little creative with our napping spots. It could get quite boring if you slept the same way hour after hour, so I like to vary it up a little each time. So here’s a collection of some of my favorite ways to take a nap throughout the day!

The Easter Bunny Came

Easter Bunny with Dachshund // Ammo the Dachshund

As you know Easter was this past Sunday. It’s one of my favorite holidays – as holidays that involve a bunny always make the top of my list! Alas though, when I woke up Sunday morning it seems I had just missed Mr. Bunny.

Easter with the Barkbox Bunny // Ammo the Dachshund

But don’t worry, because the very special BarkBox Bunny never seems to miss my house, and this year was no exception. Check out the fun video of me diving into my Easter Basket:

That Barkbox Bunny knows just what kind of goodies I love!

Easter Bunny with Dachshund // Ammo the Dachshund

After opening my basket I packed up and headed over to my mom-mom’s house where I was put in charge of hiding the easter eggs for all of my cousins (on account of I’m very good at finding hiding spots – mostly of the hole variety!).

Easter Bunny with Dachshund // Ammo the Dachshund

That’s right, they’ll never find this one!

My cousins are pretty good at finding easter eggs, but I couldn’t let them have all the fun!

Too bad all the eggs I found had jelly beans in them….yuck!

Easter Bunny with Dachshund // Ammo the Dachshund

After the egg hunt it was time for dinner. Unfortunately my family forgot to set a place for me at the table! Can you believe it! Don’t worry though, I found the perfect spot to look pathetic and got handed plenty of little nibbles.

Easter Bunny with Dachshund // Ammo the Dachshund

And after I was nice and stuffed one of my cousins volunteered to take me for a walk. I burned off all those calories in a matter of minutes hunting for more easter bunnies!
