A Wireless Camera to Monitor your Pet + A Giveaway

You might recall that this funny looking device, the Vimtag Wireless Video Monitor System, showed up at my house a month or so ago. Well, ever since it’s arrival I’ve found myself getting into a little more trouble than usual.

You see, this camera allows my mom to check up on me from her smart phone any time she wants, and lets just say that there were a few things I was hoping she wouldn’t find out about….

I tried to deny my involvement in both of these incidents, but darn it, if that Vimtag camera didn’t totally rat me out…

Impending Doom - Ammo prepares for the snowstorm

I hear that this weekend a big snowstorm is headed my way. So far they are predicting 12 – 18 inches of the fluffy white stuff.

Don’t worry though, I’m totally prepared and have already readied my snow day outfit! Bring on Blizzard Jonas! After all, I’ve weathered my fair share of snow storms over the years….

Thanksgiving Road Trip: Skim Boarding Dogs

Posted on by

Back in November I went on a fun road trip adventure with my family and best pal Trooper to South Carolina. While true, it’s been nearly 2 months since then, I still have one last adventure to share with everyone, and it’s a fun one!

Thanksgiving Road Trip: Skim Boarding Dogs

Despite the fact that it wasn’t exactly SUPER warm down south my Uncle Taylor always likes to get us dogs excited about having a splash in the ocean when we hit the beach.

Since I’m never one to miss an adventure I didn’t hesitate one bit to jump into the cold water and have a little fun.

Uncle Taylor taught me everything there is to know about skim boarding.

And I made sure him and Trooper didn’t drown in the process!

Do you think your dog would be as excited about skim boarding as Trooper and I are? Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity

National Hat Day with Ammo the Dachshund

Do you see this picture of me? While I’m super adorable and all (we all knew that), there is something missing, something really important on today of all days.

National Hat Day with Ammo the Dachshund

It’s a hat! Because today I’m told, is National Hat Day! And since I couldn’t just wear any old hat, mom helped me make a few fun paper hats so I could have a little dress up fun.

Thanksgiving Roadtrip: Shopping in Charleston

Posted on by

Thanksgiving is obviously well behind us, but with the craziness that is Christmas I never got to finish telling you all about my adventures on my last road trip! So today I wanted to share my fun shopping excursions in Charleston, South Carolina!

Thanksgiving Road Trip: Pet Friendly Shopping in Charleston

Trooper and I are always very excited when we are involved in the family outings during vacation. While most dogs might sit at home Trooper and I are included in as much as possible, and you better believe I wasn’t going to let them leave me out of a shopping adventure!

Thanksgiving Road Trip: Pet Friendly Shopping in Charleston

Before heading to Charleston we made a stop at this cute market on Folly Beach. Apparently it’s a mini “grocery store” according to mom and dad.

Now I’ve never been in a grocery store before, because they are normally a “no dogs allowed” place, but Bert’s Market is super dog friendly! I guess in a small beach town you can have those luxuries.

And to be honest, I’m a little peeved that I was never allowed in this glorious place with all things edible before!

Trooper and I agree, it’s almost better than the pet store! *Drool*

Thanksgiving Road Trip: Pet Friendly Shopping in Charleston

Before hitting Charleston for some more shopping Trooper and I stopped off at the Disc Golf course to watch some of my family play. My buddy Sharkie was there too making sure no discs ended up in the lake. Apparently he’s an expert at rescuing drowning discs…..go Sharkie!

Then it was off to downtown Charleston for some shopping!

Trooper decided to wait in the car while I hit up all the best stores. I love that most of the shops are pet friendly!

Of course even in the “human” stores I was able to find the dog stuff! This shop had some fun gear from one of my favorite retailers, Ruffwear.

Most of the shops I visited became a blur, but eventually we found a cute little pet shop and mom bought me some of my favorite treats.

By the time I made it back to the car I was pretty exhausted. Shopping is a very tough job, but nothing a little cat nap can’t fix.

It’s a good thing Trooper didn’t hit the shops like I did, because he couldn’t even make it through our next lunch stop without passing out. He’s such a lightweight!

My trip to South Carolina was shaping up to be such fun adventure, and don’t worry, I’ve still got a few more tales to share too!

The New Year Ahead

Posted on by

Happy New Year // Ammo the Dachshund

Well, it’s officially 2016! It’s like in the blink of an eye another year has come and gone, sometimes it’s much too fast for my liking!

So much has happened in 2015. From Sledding with my Ponies, dachshund life struggles, road trips, kitchen renovations, and even beach excursions….life was never too dull for me.

Happy Dog Visits the Beach

All of you were there to share in my adventures, and many of you even enjoyed checking out some of my most popular older posts:

DIY dog toys

It seems you all love to make fun things for your dogs and teach them tricks! (Who doesn’t?)

And to those of you that left me comments daily (shoutout to JB, Donna, Pam B, and Rebecca) either on my blog or my Facebook Page, THANK YOU! While I don’t always respond to every comment, know that I do read them! They bring a smile to my face everyday and it makes me happy that so many of your out there are enjoying my adventures!

Lazy Days on the Farm // Ammo the Dachshund

While I never quite know what the year ahead holds for me, I do know that it certainly will never be dull around here.

With each passing year I do like to re-evaluate my blogging adventure. While I love sharing my life with each and every one of you, keeping up with my blog and social media accounts can be a full time job. The truth is, it’s a hobby that I enjoy, but I have to be realistic in how thin I spread myself between my full time job working at mom’s shop, taking care of my ponies, and making sure I have time for all my fun adventures with my friends and family.

Flying Hero Cyber Monday Sale

So moving on to 2016, I’ve decided to make a few changes to perhaps lighten my work load just a bit. The first change is that sadly I will be closing up my Flying Hero Etsy Shop as soon as I sell out of all items. While I’ve loved sharing fun dachshund artwork, greeting cards, and handmade items with all of you, it’s just become difficult for my manager (aka mom) to handle keeping up with all of it. (did you know we actually have 3 etsy shops – Studio 3, Painting Pony + Flying Hero, plus a Brick & Mortar store)

Flying Hero Etsy Shop // Ammo the Dachshund

So the good news for you is that lots of items are now on SALE! Quantities are limited though, and once they are gone…they will be GONE!

Shop Flying Hero

The next change for 2016 will be my blogging schedule. I’ve decided to try a slightly different posting schedule of Monday, Wednesday, and Friday with occasionally some additional posts during the week as my time warrants.

While I know some of you may be sad to not read my adventures during the week quite as often, my hope is that this will allow me to have even bigger adventure posts to share with you each week!

Photographer's Muse // Ammo the Dachshund

Taking pictures, editing them, and having time for actual adventures is a big job in itself. So by posting 3 times a week I’ll have a little more time to create even better content for all of you to read!

So if you’re a bit sad you might not be hearing from me quite as often, don’t worry, I’ll still be sharing snapshots of my life daily on Instagram and Facebook.

So buckle up, and join me for the ride that is 2016! I can hardly wait!

Merry Christmas everyone!

Greetings from the North Pole

I hope you all have the merriest of Christmases! I’m taking a little blogging break between now and New Years to catch up on all my sleep. But I’ll be back in 2016 with more adventures to share!

Thanks for sticking around for all the fun!

Santa’s Little Helper

Posted on by

It’s crunch time for me and my mom this week at the shop, so I’ve got my very best helper hat on and I’m busy busy helping mom finish up all the picture framing orders.

Santa's Little Helper

So I don’t have a fun video, or a long adventure post, or even any pictures of me on the farm to share today…..just little old me in my very best helper hat.

It’s a very important job being a helper dog, and I hope you’ll understand that today all my helper duties are being used at the shop!

Until my next adventure that is! See you soon. xoxo, Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity
