Ammo the Dachshund // Bubble Wrap King

Sometimes being a shop dog can be really hard. Like when all you want to do is play in a giant pile of bubble wrap but mom says there is real work to be done!

Best Bully Sticks Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

But when there is real work to be done at the shop, mom has a secret weapon (especially for days when all I want to do is play in bubble wrap)……Gullet Sticks from Best Bully Sticks!

Gullet Sticks are made from 100% beef esophagus, and a little softer than bully sticks making them ideal for smaller dogs.

These 6 Inch Braided Gullet Sticks from Best Bully Sticks are long-lasting dog chews that are an excellent source of glucosamine which aids in joint health.

So when mom needs to get some work done at the shop she slips me one of these Braided Gullet Sticks from Best Bully Sticks to keep me occupied (and out of the bubble wrap).

Don’t worry, even though I’m supposed to be the meet and greet committee at the shop door, my gullet stick chewing faces have become quite entertaining to the customers!

My Holiday Adventures

Ammo's Holiday Adventures // Ammo the Dachshund

This year when Christmas morning arrived, so did the snow! I awoke to a blanket of snow in my backyard….it was glorious!

Ammo's Holiday Adventures // Ammo the Dachshund

After taking a romp in the newly fallen snow I set to work unwrapping all of my gifts!

Santa must of known that I’ve been a very good boy, because he brought me lots of goodies this year.

One of my favorite gifts this year was an add-on for my agility poles so that I can practice indoors too! Santa knows me so well!

So after diving into all my presents at home, we loaded up the car and headed over to Trooper’s house for some more Christmas fun.

I dressed for the occasion in my Holiday tie!

Trooper said I made him feel very under dressed.

Even my new cousin Jack joined us for some fun during the holidays – although he was smart and staked out the best spot on the couch before we started opening gifts.

We opened so many gifts at Trooper’s house, that Trooper fell asleep with all his new toys in his mouth. He just doesn’t know how to hang.

After the party at Trooper’s we loaded up the car again and headed to my MomMom & PopPop’s house so that I could give my human cousins some gifts too!

My cousin Maddie got a pony for Christmas, which she promptly named Ammo. I’m not sure if I should be flattered or insulted?

When we finally arrived back home late that night, mom said I had to put all my new toys away in the new toy baskets Santa had brought me.

I figured Santa would want me to enjoy my gifts to the fullest, so I snuggled up for the night inside one of my toy bins. Morning couldn’t come soon enough!

Here’s a round-up of what goodies I got this year:
