Posted on by

Every year I put on my best holiday gear and get ready for the Downingtown Christmas Parade in town.

12 Days of Cheer! Christmas Parade with Ammo the Dachshund

This year was no exception!

Being that I have a 9-5 job working as official shop greeter at mom’s shop in town, parade time I have to work extra hard to invite parade goers into the shop for free hot cider & cookies!

Luckily I’m pretty cute, so my job usually isn’t that hard. *wink*

After working hard at the shop all morning I was excited to hear that the parade was about to start. I made sure I got a front row seat for all the action!

The parade was just as fabulous as always, but the most exciting part is always SANTA!

Step 1: Lay out your painters tape on a cuttable surface (self-healing mats work great) and trace around your dog bone shaped cookie cutter (or any stencil you would like to use).

Step 2: Cut the shape out with an exacto knife.

Step 3: Position your cut-out shape on the mason jar where-ever you would like it.

I filled my jar with some peanut butter cookies from the Three Dog Bakery, but if you are looking for some recipes you might want to check out this E-book from Pretty Fluffy.

My new DIY Holiday Dog Cookie Jar would make the perfect gift this holiday to give to my best friend Trooper, however my tummy might have the final ruling on this one. I’m sure Trooper won’t mind if I eat just a few! Ammo the Dachshund

12 Days of Cheer! Visiting Santa

Posted on by

Last week mom and dad took me to Waterloo Gardens to see Santa. I was so excited because I couldn’t wait to tell him all of the lovely gifts I wanted him to pack on his sleigh for me.

Mom and dad snapped lots of photos of me, and I made sure to pack my reindeer antlers….just in case Santa was in need of one more reindeer for his sleigh!

Sadly Santa saw right though my cardboard antlers, but he made me feel much better with a great big Christmas hug! Best day ever!

Little did I know, later in the week I’d get to see Santa again, this time at the Animal Clinic at Thorndale. This trip to Santa gave me a chance to donate money to the fund for Hurricane Sandy Disaster Relief. Yay for helping the animals!

I’ll have to wait a bit longer to see the professional photos from Clocks for Seeing Photography, but mom and dad were able to snap this shot of me on Santa’s lap.

Yes, I’ll admit – I was a bit frightened. But when Santa sets up shop in your vet’s office…..you can’t help but worry that his Christmas gift to you is bound to be a round of shots. Luckily he had mercy on me this year. Thanks Santa.

Now I only have 12 more days until I get to see Santa again – when he slides down my chimney on Christmas Eve! Yippee! Ammo the Dachshund
