When my September Barkbox showed up at my door packed full of goodies and boasting a football theme, I knew exactly what I had to do…..
…slap on my favorite football t-shirt and catch the Sunday Night football game, rooting for my home team, The Philadelphia Eagles!

Over the weekend my best friend Trooper came over to spend the day with me.
It’s been a long time since we’ve spent the ENTIRE day together, so we had a lot of catching up to do.
Mostly we had a lot of snuggling to catch up on!
Boy did I miss snuggling with my best friend!

I’m always super excited when I get to test out clothing, since being a dachshund means that your body type is not the norm – and it can be quite difficult to find harnesses, jackets, sweaters and coats that accommodate my long body but short legs. Needless to say, I’m quite excited to share with you the Precision Fit Harness and a Precision Fit Sport Fleece from my pals at My Canine Kids.
Since summer has officially decided to head on out of Eastern Pennsylvania, I have found myself in need of a jacket on the farm for my early morning farm chores.
The Precision Fit Line from My Canine Kids is quite unique in that it is designed to be fully adjustable. As in your clothes and harnesses can grow with you should you perhaps pack on a few extra pounds (not that I condone that) or are a puppy going through a growth spurt, or perhaps you just have an odd dachshund shaped body that can be hard to fit.
The front of the Fleece velcros in two points so that you can easily make it snugger or looser.
And the belly strap has an extra long piece of velcro to fit lots of different sized bellies. And the My Canine Kids line isn’t just for small dogs, they make their products in a variety of sizes to fit big and small dogs and every body type in between.
The Precision Fit Sport Fleece even comes with an handy hole to attach a leash through, although I do wish it was a bit further back so it could reach my harness.
I also got to test out the Precision Fit Step in Harness in blue.
Mom says it totally makes me look like a body builder! Hey, I’ll take that!
Some key features about the Precision Fit Harness:
And because the top and sides are fully adjustable, it can make fitting your growing puppy or hard to fit dog a snap! I typically prefer harnesses that don’t go between my front legs, but I did notice that My Canine Kids also makes an adjustable vest style harness that is most similar to the kind I prefer to wear.
You can check out more styles and designs in adjustable clothing for your pets at My Canine Kids. And find out where to purchase their gear!
And now for the best part…..

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!
You can fetch these fun toys and more from Little Barkster on Etsy.

Last week some farm machinery showed up on the farm, and along with it came some sand!
Word on the street was that the ponies were getting sand footing for their arena.
In translation…..HOLY COW I WAS GETTING A BEACH!
Trooper and I were quite intrigued by our newly found farm beach (as we dubbed it).
You may already know just how much I absolutely love the beach, especially running across it bay watch style.
And the fact that I can now run on the beach and also hunt groundhogs at the SAME PLACE……seriously I think I’m in heaven.
Once the arena farm beach was officially finished Trooper and I got to be the first ones to test it out.
And seeing as how it’s a pretty big arena farm beach, we both agreed that we should share our new sand with the ponies too.
Blitz and Boomerang seem to be just as thrilled with the new farm addition. Boomer even took a celebratory bay watch run just like me….
So what fun things do you think I should do in my new farm beach?

My pals over at Mattie & Margot recently sent me a collar and leash from their new STRIPPED collection.
This collection is great because it has a lower price point (starting at $20) and comes in two different widths to fit any size dog.
My gal pal Cricket the Cat was totally eyeing the Ice Blue color that my collar and leash set came in…..because it was oh-so-cool!
I’m always on the lookout for leashes that come with these “claw” (not sure if that’s the real term for it) clasp like the STRIPPED Leash. I’m a strong believer that it’s a stronger and more durable option for a clasp than the standard snaps you see on a lot of leashes.
The STRIPPED collection is “stripped” of the traditional ribbon adornment that most of the Mattie & Margot collars you have seen me wearing come with, ideal for the minimalist at heart and great for a less expensive (but still very durable) collar. I’ve NEVER had a Mattie & Margot collar break on me in all the years I’ve been wearing them, not even when I’m rough-housing on the farm.
You may have already caught me wearing my new Stripped collar on my Facebook page, as I’ve already been adorning myself with it’s cool blueness at work, on the farm, and lounging around my house.
You can fetch your own STRIPPED Collar or Leash from Mattie & Margot in a variety of colors and sizes starting at $20.
And don’t forget to use coupon code AMMO for 10% off your next Mattie & Margot order!
And now for the best part….
ONE LUCKY WINNER will win a STRIPPED Collar and Leash from Mattie & Margot!

P.S. Don’t forget, today is the last day to enter my giveaway for a package of Minties Chews!
Summer is quickly coming to an end (how sad), and although there is lots to look forward to in the fall I’m still going to miss all the summertime fun. So I’ve been packing in as much excitement as I can!
I’ve been spending time with my favorite pony, Minnow, while he munches on the last bits of summer grass.
That Minnow is always trying to hog the camera with his cheesy smiles!
I’m also squeezing in trips to the hardware store – to help mom and dad finish up all our summer projects around the house.
I’m also taking as many trips to the lake with mom and dad that I can. Pretty soon it’ll be much to chilly on the water for me!
Mostly I’m just enjoying the warmth…..all before I have to break out my cool weather wardrobe!
What are you going to miss about the summer once it’s gone?
Over the weekend I decided to lend a helping paw and help my pal Trooper on the continuing work on his soon to be new farmhouse home.
While progress on Trooper’s new home is moving along, this weekend’s goal was to continue tiling.
Trooper and I knew just what to do to help too! We started a wrestling match to make sure that all the tile was nice and secure.
And good news, it held up just fine to our playtime antics.
There’s still lots more work to do, and mom says we better learn how to grout soon because it’s going to be a big big project!
Don’t worry though, I’ve already started taking notes!
What sort of projects did your pup help you with this weekend?

Trooper and I are pretty hard working farm dogs, and when we’re busy with farm chores we can work up quite the appetite. So we were thrilled when we got the chance to test out some of Betsy Farms’ Chicken Jerky Chews and Minties’ Dental Chews.
Betsy Farms‘ Chicken Jerky chews are made in the USA and do not include artificial preservatives, colors, or flavors while Minties Dental Chews are also made in the USA and free of wheat, gluten, soy, corn, artificial flavors and animal by-products.
So after running around on the farm all day Trooper and I couldn’t wait to test out our new chews.
The Betsy Farms Chicken Jerky smelled delicious and was the perfect size to break into smaller bite sized pieces, because even farm dogs have to watch their weight.
I’m pretty sure the looks on mine and Trooper’s faces are enough to tell you how much we loved them!
Now you may notice that Trooper and I have some nice pearly white smiles, and we’d definitely like to keep it that way!
My mom is always on the lookout for healthy treats to help keep my choppers looking this clean, because we all know that farm dogs don’t always have time to brush their teeth!
These Minties Chews seemed to fit the bill containing five natural ingredients that work in your dog’s mouth and stomach to promote fresh breath and reduce unpleasant odors:
And guess what, even with all those fancy things to keep your teeth clean, they still taste yummy.
Who knew keeping your teeth clean could be as easy as eating!
So thanks to our Betsy Farms and Minties Chews Trooper and I are now energized and ready to get back to our farm duties with pearly whites to boot!
As a bonus you can save $1 off your own package of Minties Chews when you like the VetIQ Facebook Page!
And now for the best part….
ONE LUCKY WINNER will win a package of Minties Chews!
