Glowdoggie Led Dog Collar Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

You might remember my gal pal Shilah the Husky. You might also remember that back in October Shilah and I had a little photoshoot in the park with our Glowdoggie Led Collars. Well Shilah and I are back again to share these great collars with you – and we also have a super fun giveaway too!

Glowdoggie makes one of my all time favorite products, led lighted dog collars designed to keep us pets safe in the dark!

Battery operated, waterproof and durable, Shilah and I wear our collars whenever we are out in the dark.

Making dogs visible to cars on walks and making it easy to find your pet at night in their own backyard, I can’t say enough good things about these collars.

Mom always keeps one in our car for me, because you never know when you might need it! Another great thing about these collars is that there is no need for charging them, or plugging them in, or even flipping on a switch. You simply hang the collars upright (like on a doorknob) for them to turn off and they immediately light up when you put them on your dogs neck.

Friday Fetch: Picture Your Pet as President

If you’re like me, then you daydream about being the king of the world (i.e. the president), or sometimes even an actual King. Well what if I told you that you’re pet could actually be these things…..well sorta. Artist Patricia Carlin created a series of prints for Uncommon Goods in which you can have your own pet turned into the president, or a king/queen, a boat captain or even a biker. How cool is that!

Road Trip with Ammo – Dog Friendly Downtown Charleston, SC

Yesterday I shared my adventures in the Isle of Palms, frolicking on the beach with my best pal Trooper, and having a grand time! But being a beach bum wasn’t the only thing I did on my Thanksgiving vacation.

Road Trip with Ammo - Dog Friendly Downtown Charleston, South Carolina

There was some turkey involved too as I celebrated Thanksgiving with a traditional turkey feast with my family. Trooper and I begged mercifully for some turkey, and even though we didn’t get any, we had fun chowing down on the turkey sausage chews for dogs that mom brought along for us.

Road Trip with Ammo - Dog Friendly Downtown Charleston, South Carolina

After our day of feasting Trooper and I headed into downtown Charleston, South Carolina to check out some of the local scenery.

Road Trip with Ammo - Dog Friendly Downtown Charleston, South Carolina

Before strolling through town we practiced being southern gentleman on a front porch stoop, because I hear that’s what you do when you’re down south!

I even wore my fancy bow tie and poured on the charm, because you never know when a southern lady might be watching!

After my front porch adventure I realized I was getting quite sleepy in the warm southern sun.

Road Trip with Ammo - Dog Friendly Downtown Charleston, South Carolina

I was also quite hungry too! So we decided to take a walk into town to grab something to eat. We ended up at Tabbuli, which had a great little enclosed outdoor dining area that was completely dog friendly!

Road Trip with Ammo - Dog Friendly Downtown Charleston, South Carolina

After some good food it was off to explore Charleston, and I was excited to see that I was sharing the streets with some horses too! These carriage rides around town were pet friendly too, as I saw a couple of small dogs riding in them.

Road Trip with Ammo - Dog Friendly Downtown Charleston, South Carolina

After exploring some of the shops I headed over to Waterfront Park, where I fit right in with my sailor jacket!

I even met some new friends while checking out some of the fountain displays in the park.

Then it was off to Battery Park where I watched the sunset before it was time to head back to my beach rental.

The next day Trooper and I took the short walk from our rental to the beach to say goodbye to the ocean one last time.

Then we packed it into the car and settled in for the long ride back to Pennsylvania.

Making sure to stop for dinner of course!

 

I hope you enjoyed my Thanksgiving adventures, what kind of fun did you have? Ammo the Dachshund

Road Trip with Ammo – Dog Beach in Isle of Palms, SC

As you know last week I left for a fun Thanksgiving road trip with my family. With over 1500 miles of driving this would be one of my longest road trips to date!

Road Trip with Ammo - Dog Friendly Beaches in Isle of Palms, South Carolina

Not to worry though, because Trooper and I are excellent travelers and we can nap in the car for hours and hours.

Road Trip with Ammo - Dog Friendly Beaches in Isle of Palms, South Carolina

Trooper even snores!

Road Trip with Ammo - Dog Friendly Beaches in Isle of Palms, South Carolina

Despite our excellent traveling skills, we did make a few pitstops for dinner and a couple bathroom breaks.

And then finally after about 14 hours of driving from Pennsylvania to South Carolina we reached our destination. When we awoke the next day I wasted no time in hitting up the beach on Isle of Palms. This time of year the beaches are open all day long to dogs.

Trooper and I had a lot of energy to expel so we ran and ran to our hearts content.

I even made friends with a few dachshund mixes that were staying right next door to my beach house!

Road Trip with Ammo - Dog Friendly Beaches in Isle of Palms, South Carolina

Even though we were a bit farther south, it was still chilly enough in the morning that I preferred the extra warmth of my coats.

The cool weather didn’t stop me from venturing into the cold water though!

One of my favorite things to do on the beach is to “rescue” crabs from the ocean. I drag them ashore from the sea and then I’m off in search of my next crab that needs saving.

My new favorite thing on the beach though…..bird watching!

Road Trip with Ammo - Dog Friendly Beaches in Isle of Palms, South Carolina

Well ok, maybe more like bird chasing.

Seriously, bird chasing = the most fun ever!

With a close second being wrestling with my best buddy Trooper on the beach!

By the end of our trip I was becoming such a beach loving dog that I’ve decided when I’m rich and famous I’ll be purchasing a vacation house right on the beach.

Natural Pet Warehouse Tuckers Chicken Jerky Review & Giveaway

Disclaimer: This review and giveaway is brought to you by Natural Pet Warehouse.

Natural Pet Warehouse Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

When my pals over at the Natural Pet Warehouse offered me the chance to test out some of their Tuckers USA Chicken Breast Jerky, I licked my lips and said send it on over!

Natural Pet Warehouse Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

These chicken jerky strips are individually sealed for freshness and made with human grade meat from the US and Canada. It’s great to know that what I’m eating is made from a single ingredient, chicken!

Natural Pet Warehouse Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Now it’s hard to tell in this photo, but these things are as juicy and fresh as you can imagine.

Natural Pet Warehouse Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Mom tried to tear off a tiny piece for me to try, but I snatched the whole thing out of her hand before she had a chance to tell me not to! (I’m a sneaky boy). But how can you resist with that juicy chicken waving in your face?

P.S. apparently third times the charm when trying to pose with a package of jerky! hehe

Last year for Thanksgiving I headed south to North Carolina to visit family. My road trip was so much fun that I’ve decided it was time for another adventure this Thanksgiving. So today I’m on my way (with Trooper too) to Charleston, South Carolina for a couple of days of fun with my family!
