Now Available! Adventure Awaits T-Shirt for Charity

Posted on by

As an avid adventure dog I love anything that has to do with adventures! And seeing as how my previous Adventure Awaits t-shirt created numerous inquiries as to where people could purchase them – I figured my adventurous taste in clothing could help to benefit the dogs in need this holiday season!

Fall with Martha Stewart

Posted on by

A couple of months ago Trooper and I got the opportunity to have a little fashion show with the new Martha Stewart Fall Pet Line, available at Petsmart.

The end result landed a photo of me on MarthaStewart.com – pretty exciting!

The fact is though, mom took so many fun photos of Trooper and I enjoying our new Martha Stewart products – that we had to share all the others that didn’t make the cut!

Especially since they are the PERFECT thing to put everyone in the Halloweenie mood!

Honestly, what’s more Halloweenie than a dachshund dressed as a pumpkin?

Well perhaps a dachshund dressed as a pumpkin in a pile of hay!

Trooper totally had his eye on the Martha Stewart toys, and I bet he was thinking he’d get to take them home with him after our little photoshoot.

Sorry Trooper, I’ll share my Halloweenie collar with you, but these toys are mine….all mine!

Friday Fetch: Little Barkster Dog Toys

Posted on by

I stumbled across the Little Barkster on Etsy and thought their line of plush dog toys was oh-so-fun. These handmade toys look totally nibble worthy. Too bad my powerful choppers would for sure devour them in seconds, but they would be pretty while they lasted!

Throwback Thursday: Puppy Trooper

Posted on by

puppy ammo the dachshund and trooper

Ever since I was 8 weeks old my buddy Trooper has been the dog I looked up to. He came to the shop with me everyday, where he was in charge of “training” me for the first year or so of my life. I like to think that I got my sassiness from Trooper himself, and I’m pretty sure these videos of a young puppy Trooper (before I knew him) hanging out at the shop totally prove my point!

P.S. Isn’t it amazing how much lighter Trooper’s coat was when he was a puppy? Now everyone just thinks he’s really old with his mostly black coat with bits of gray. (he’s only 7) Ammo the Dachshund

Penn + Pooch Review and Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

It’s no secret that I’m a dog with style. True, I may roll in stinky stuff on the farm while wearing each and every one of my stylish outfits – but at least I’m looking fly while doing so! So when Penn + Pooch offered to add some super cool new gear to my “roll in stink” wardrobe I said yippee!

Penn + Pooch Review and Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

I’m pretty sure everyone can agree that I look super adorable – even though I’m pretty sure I was going for the gangster look. But hey, it’s hard not to be adorable when you’re a dog wearing a hoodie.

Penn + Pooch Review and Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

One of my absolute favorite parts about all the Penn + Pooch gear is their signature back flap. Designed so you can always easily hook a harness through it, this thing is genius…..because who wants to wear a harness over their hoodie? That’s just ridiculous!

2013 Chincoteague Pony Penning

Posted on by

So, as most of you know my mom left me home last week while she went on a fantastical adventure with two of my favorite ponies, Minnow and Boomerang, to Chincoteague Island for the 88th Annual Pony Penning.

They got to do amazing things like check out the wild pony round-up, swim, and auction – and they even got to perform all week at the Chincoteague Pony Centre.

My mom took some amazing pictures, so even though I wasn’t there – her photos make me feel like I was! You can check them all out HERE.

But I was most excited to hear about how my ponies did in their big performances, especially Boomerang who did an amazing job on his very FIRST debut – I’m pretty sure everyone was super impressed with the bean bag sitting skills that I taught him.

Even my special pony Minnow did an amazing job painting some beautiful pictures that were auctioned off after each show – with part of the money going to help local animal rescue groups!

The ponies will have their own recap of all their adventures on their blog soon!

And while you may think I just spent my week at home like this:

I actually had quite a few adventures of my own at home with dad! But those will have to wait for another post!

But you can check out all the fun my ponies had on their facebook page, and soon on their blog. Ammo the Dachshund

My Crazy Rebels Custom Pet Painting

Posted on by

Right before Christmas my mom entered a giveaway on the Pawsh blog for a spiffy pet painting made by the fine folks at Crazy Rebels. And as luck would have it, she won! The even better part was that the painting was going to be of me!

So I helped mom look through lots of my photos, and we picked out this silly photo from a few years ago of me in my super hero cape. I thought it would look fun turned into a cartoon style painting.

The I headed over to Design Seeds and picked out the blue background color seen in the photo below.

And a few weeks later this fun painting arrived at my doorstep.

The Year in Pup Culture: Ammo on Animal Planet

Posted on by

The Year in Pup Culture // Ammo the Dachshund on Animal Planet

You might remember that I mentioned that I would be appearing on the new animal planet show, The Year in Pup Culture, which aired on December 22, 2012.

The Year in Pup Culture // Ammo the Dachshund on Animal Planet

It’s an action-packed hour of non-stop, over-the-top cuteness. THE YEAR IN PUP CULTURE looks back at the defining moments of 2012 as only Animal Planet can — with puppies! These adorable pups reenact the most memorable moments of the year, including scenes from top blockbuster movies and ripped-from-the headline bits. If these moments piqued public interest in 2012, they are getting “puppified” in the cutest hour on television.

Well when I actually got to watch my (and Minnow’s) beautiful mug on tv, I was so excited that they actually compared me (yes little old me) to a Kardashian! Am I really that famous? Just check it out for yourself:

Oh yes, you heard right – me and Minnow are like the Kim & Kanye of Animal Planet! Well, except the fact that we’re best friends instead of lovers, although I do love my Minnow dearly. Proof:

Ammo and Minnow

I’m pretty sure this means that I get some designer doggie gear now that I’m associated with the Kardashian clan, right? Or at least a feature on Khloe Kardashian’s or Kim Kardashian’s Blog?

A dog can dream….

 

P.S. I hear Kim & Kanye are expecting their first child  (yes, I keep up with my pop culture)….congrats to the couple, and just FYI I’m available for baby sitting. *wink*
