Dogs And Their People // Ammo the Dachshund in Barkbook

Now at first glance this might look like just a cute book about Dogs and Their People. And while that fun smiling corgi is super fun, there is something even more special about this book…

…I’m in the book! As you can see my sister couldn’t wait to help me celebrate my very first “in print” literature.

Many lucky dogs just like me have people that love them very much (like my sister here), so much so that the quirky stories that prove their love are included in this book of collected stories by my friends over at Barkbox!

So I’m sure none of you are surprised that I might be included in this book, after all my mom and dad do some crazy things to show me that they care. (Taking me flying, a road trip so I could walk the red carpet, and documenting my entire life on this blog to name a few)

In the Dogs and their People Book I’ve got an entire page dedicated to me, written by my mom!

The Barkshop even came out with this super fun replica book that doubles as a baby toy (or I guess dog toy depending on who you are)!

Truth be told I’ve never spent the night at a kennel or boarding facility, and honestly I hope to never have to be apart from my family! But I do know that sometimes this just isn’t possible and I’d like to think that should it come to that I’d be staying in one of the fanciest facilities for dogs! Finding those top notch places just got a little bit easier with Furlocity!

In Preparation – Pony Penning 2013

Ammo the Dachshund Helps Prepare for Pony Penning

Every year around June mom and I start training the ponies for a very special trip. A trip to Chincoteague Island in Virginia at the end of July to watch their wild relatives swim from Assateague to Chincoteague during the annual Chincoteague Pony Swim and Auction.

As official pony trainer it’s my duty to help the ponies prepare by learning new tricks so they are ready to perform for their week long stay down there at the Chincoteague Pony Centre.

This year my pal Boomerang will be making his first trip to Virginia to perform, so I had a little chat with him about how he’s supposed to behave properly and not embarrass me.

Boomerang sulked for the rest of the day, what a baby!

Another part of Boomer’s preparation is reading the famous book by Marguerite Henry, Misty of Chincoteague. Things were going well until Boomer confessed that he doesn’t know how to read!

Sigh, it’s going to be a very very long summer!

Learn more about where you can see my pony friends perform at the end of July on the Painting Pony Blog.

Visit to the Uwchlan Hills Elementary School

Posted on March 5, 2012 by Ammo

Last Friday I took a trip to the Uwchlan Hills Elementary School for Reader Appreciation Day & Dr. Suess’ Birthday. I’m certainly no Dr. Suess, but I did bring along one of my favorite books, Superdog: The Heart of a Hero.
