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!

Friday Fetch with Barkbox // Ammo the Dachshund

My January Barkbox subscription is here! You guys, let me tell you, I could hardly contain myself when that goodness arrived at my doorstep this month.

Friday Fetch with Barkbox // Ammo the Dachshund

So I did what any other dog would do, I ripped that sucker open and grabbed the first thing I smelled!

Friday Fetch with Barkbox // Ammo the Dachshund

This month’s Barkbox was packed with some delicious goodies as per usual.

Friday Fetch with Barkbox // Ammo the Dachshund

We had the Loving Pets Barksters – crunchy sweet potato & beef crisps, a Harry Barker Tug n’ Toss rope toy, a Barkworthies Junior Bully Stick Chew (which I devoured right out of the box), and Think! Dog Alligator Jerky. Yes, I can honestly say I don’t think I’ve ever had actual alligator…..but I’m looking forward to trying it. I hear they are great for dogs with allergies to more common proteins like beef or chicken.

Friday Fetch with Barkbox // Ammo the Dachshund

And lastly we’ve got the Wigzi! A dishwasher safe, recyclable, made in the USA toy that floats…..now if I could just get my dad to stop playing with it too!

Friday Fetch with Barkbox // Ammo the Dachshund

So as you can see, for a box filled with all that dog-gone goodness…..it never stood a chance!

You can fetch your own BarkBox starting at $19 a month. It’s the perfect thing to gift your pup this Valentines Day! Save $5 on your BarkBox subscription if you use code AMMO5!

Throwback Thursday: A Puppy’s First Trip to the Beach

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

My love affair with the ocean started when I was just about a year old. For me it was love at first sight. How can you not love a place that has beaches for miles just begging to be dug up or waves that bring ashore critters to hunt and chase?

Check out this video from my very first encounter with the ocean just after I had celebrated my first birthday!

Do your pups enjoy the ocean too? Ammo the Dachshund

Sledding with the Ponies

Sledding with the Ponies // Ammo the Dachshund

Over the weekend I decided to go on a sledding adventure at the farm. So I grabbed my favorite ponies (Minnow, Blitz and Boomer) and hitched them to a sled for some fun!

Sledding with the Ponies // Ammo the Dachshund

Trooper and I had a blast chasing the sleds – we even made it a little friendly competition out of who could get there first. (it was me incase you were wondering)

Dad even broke out his snowboard for a little more “extreme” fun. We’re a little unconventional around here.

You can bet I’ll be doing some sledding again real soon!

My Favorite Spot

My Favorite Spot // Ammo the Dachshund

I bet you have that one favorite spot in your house. The spot where the couch dips in just right and the sun warms your back and you could just nap there for hours. Yeah, I have that spot at my house too.

All that’s missing is someone to hand feed me cookies and massage my back.

My pals over at Chewy.com recently sent me a package of Nutro Crunchy Real Pomegranate Dog Cookies to try.

They feature real pomegranates and healthy ingredients, and as a bonus my mom says they smell great too (which is a real plus considering how some dog treats can be quite stinky). They include no wheat or corn, and they contain no artificial colors, flavors or preservatives.

Throwback Thursday: Bug Killer

It’s no secret that I’m pretty much an expert hunter, especially when it comes to groundhogs.

Hunting Groundhogs on the Farm 2012 // Ammo the Dachshund

While I now can spend hours on the farm digging down holes after my furry little friends, did you know that I actually started honing my hunting skills as a young pup on something much much smaller….

Those poor stink bugs never stood a chance.
