Take Your Dog to Work Day

Today is take your dog to work day. For me, it’s just a normal day, because every day in my life is “take your dog to work day”. So today I thought it would be fun to share with you what a typical day at work in my family’s custom frame shop looks like for me.

After the car is parked I make the grueling trek from the parking lot to the shop – and in the winter this means through the snow, and it’s slightly up hill too! I keep telling mom I need a shuttle, I mean seriously, these conditions are terrible!

Once inside I do my morning stretches to get ready for the day. 8 hours of work does it’s tole on you!

Before the shop opens for the day I find the optimal position to greet customers (belly side up for maximum belly rubs).

Sometimes I get bored of waiting by the front door so I have to move around a bit in order to get enough belly rubs to keep me going throughout the day.

By mid-morning I usually get a burst of energy so I sometimes shred things, or bark at mom until she gives me something to chew on.

Then it’s back to the shop door to watch for any dogs walking by that I can bark at.

If it’s a good day, then there will be a good stream of people stopping by that I can wag my tail at, and beg for food.

On slow days I just turn into a sloth and sleep the day away in the backroom.

Well, that is unless mom puts me to work filing paperwork. Sigh.

Then before I know it, it’s time to pack it all up and head home for the day.

I always look forward to the car ride home because when I get home…..

Sound Proof

Sound Proof - Ammo the Dachshund is a Seasoned DIY Dog

Trips to my local hardware store are a pretty common occurrence for me. I’ve come to look forward to perusing the isles for all the special DIY materials mom and dad are looking for for their next big project.

Sound Proof - Ammo the Dachshund is a Seasoned DIY Dog

The employees always seem surprised with how well behaved I am and how unfazed I am with all the loud noises going on in the lumber department.

I just smile and nod, because I’m pretty much sound proof at this point thanks to all the DIY projects mom and dad take on!

Is your dog completely unfazed by loud noises like me?Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity
