Following Instinct - Ammo the Dachshund finds a Groundhog Hole

Some dogs are born with it, some dogs aren’t. And I can’t help that I was ~~cursed~~ blessed with this amazing nose that can lead me to a groundhog hole deep in the woods, through thickets and brush, where no one else knows it exists.

My poor pal Trooper doesn’t have this gift, sometimes I’m surprised he even knows which way is up. (love ya Troop!)

Without me the world would be full of unknown groundhog holes, unattended, and unwatched.

And for some reason, I don’t think my special skills are very appreciated around here!

Following Instinct - Ammo the Dachshund finds a Groundhog Hole

Sigh. It’s an uphill battle for me every single day. The struggle is real my friends. #DachshundLifeStruggle

Does your dog like to follow their instinct?
