That’s right, my buddy Minnow graciously offered me up some of his tail hair (after all he did have plenty) to send to Enter at A for my new collar.

And when it arrived a few weeks later Minnow and I both agreed that it looked fabulous on me.

I chose a beautiful brown leather with teal padding to compliment Minnow’s pretty tail.

Friday Fetch: Live in Dog Years Collection!

My mom found herself browsing around in Concord Pets the other day (as most dog moms do) when she spotted this fun collection of goodies from Poochie Pet called Live in Dog Years. The quirky dog themed illustrations were just too fun not to share, with my personal favorite being the doggie breath mints (not that I have bad breath or anything!)

And thanks to Barkbox I even have a happy little chef to help me in the kitchen this year. Although I totally have my eye on him as I caught him sneaking some of my beef stew already!

If he behaves perhaps I’ll let him lick the after dinner plates with me.

But you know, the real fun always comes after the big feast, when everyone hunkers down on the couch to snooze off all that turkey and stuffing and mashed potatoes.

Light up the Shop

Studio 3 Marquee Sign // Ammo the Dachshund

Many many months ago, my mom and dad started building something intriguing.

Studio 3 Marquee Sign // Ammo the Dachshund

It took quite a while to take shape, and at first I wasn’t quite sure what it was going to be for.

Studio 3 Marquee Sign // Ammo the Dachshund

Studio 3 Marquee Sign // Ammo the Dachshund

But the farther along my mom and dad got on their project, the more I began to worry…because I knew where it was going to end up.

Studio 3 Marquee Sign // Ammo the Dachshund

Studio 3 Marquee Sign // Ammo the Dachshund

Yup, that’s right it ended up right in the window of my shop.

Studio 3 Marquee Sign // Ammo the Dachshund

Now you may be thinking, what’s the big deal? Well the big deal is that my shop already has something in the window that grabs the attention of potential customers.

Studio 3 Marquee Sign // Ammo the Dachshund

And that something is me! So as nice as the new shop sign is, I just really hope I won’t be out of a job anytime soon! Ammo the Dachshund

Hagen Pet Products Review & Giveaway

Disclosure: This review and giveaway is brought to you by Hagen.

Hagen Pet Products Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

My new friends at Hagen recently sent me a fun package of goodies to try, and oh boy, I bet you can imagine my excitement when these showed up at my door!

Hagen Pet Products Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

First up we had these natural treats from the Zoe and Hagen Heritage line.

Hagen Pet Products Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Next up we had the Tasty Bones in a Peppermint Dental Bone (on the left) and Venison Gourmet Edible Bone (on the right).

The Dental bone is made of a tough nylon and flavoring and is designed to help clean teeth while your pet chews on it. I haven’t gone to town on the Dental bone just yet, but mom says from the look and feel of it it will likely hold up to my tough choppers.

Hagen Pet Products Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

As you can see I made a b-line for Gourmet Edible Tasty Bone.

Hagen Pet Products Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

The Gourmet range of edible bones comes in a variety of flavors and is made of starch based biopolymer, food grade coloring, and synthetic flavoring. Hagen claims that it is perfectly safe for your pet to ingest small fragments that will pass through your dog’s system harmlessly.

I think the key word here might be small fragments.

Hagen Pet Products Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Seeing as how I’m what mom labels a “tough chewer” (seriously I can devour even the toughest of toys in mere minutes), I started to break off some fairly large chunks of the edible bone rather quickly.

Mom was worried I might choke on some of the bigger pieces I was breaking off, so I think this bone may be better suited for a dog that isn’t as strong a chewer as I am. But I guess my enthusiasm for the bone proved how yummy it tasted!

Hagen Pet Products Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

But there was a toy in my Hagen goodies that was definitely going to hold up to some rougher play, the Zeus Bomber!

Hagen Pet Products Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Bomber Key Features:

  • Hollow air chamber allows the ball to float and can be pressurized with air for extra bounce
  • 100% natural rubber handles withstand substantial pulling force
  • Reinforced polyester layer maintains shape and structure after each and every bounce
  • Natural rubber outer shell supports strength and bounce

Hagen Pet Products Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

The Zeus Bomber comes in two sizes, Medium (7″) and Small (4.5″) and as you can see the one I received was the larger size.

Hagen Pet Products Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Since the medium was just a bit too heavy for me to play with Mom said we should gift it to my bestie Trooper. And let me tell you, Trooper LOVED IT! He could of played with that thing for hours!

Hagen Pet Products Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Although once I caught wind that we would be gifting it to Trooper mom caught me running around the house with it from room to room – trying to prove that it wasn’t in fact too large for me to play with! Perhaps I’ll have to ask for the small size for Christmas! *wink*

You can check out all these products and more at Hagen.

Boxed

Boxed // Ammo the Dachshund

Recently my mom decided to dip into the idea of “buying in bulk” (you know like Sam’s Club and Bj’s Wholesale) after she read a post on one of her favorite blogs about a company called Boxed. She liked it so much that I’ve decided to share the fun we had with it (as in this is not a sponsored post) incase it might interest some of you.

Boxed // Ammo the Dachshund

My mom says Boxed seems to be the way to go to shop in bulk because there are no membership fees, you don’t have to go to the store and lug all those heavy items to and from the cart, and the prices even come out cheaper when my mom compared them to places like Amazon. Plus shipping is free on your first order, and on subsequent orders when you meet a minimum for your area (mine is $60).

Boxed // Ammo the Dachshund

Boxed even carries a few pet items as well. And while they don’t have a huge variety right now, they did say they add new products all the time.

But really I wanted to share Boxed with all of you because there is one major benefit to shopping with them…..

Boxed // Ammo the Dachshund

…..the boxes!! Seriously, you’ll never guess how much fun one of these big boxes can be.

Yea, lets just say I’m hoping mom shops from Boxed more often.

Boxed // Ammo the Dachshund

If you’d like to get your dog some big boxes to play in too you can use the code ZKB8A and save $20 on your first order from Boxed. Ammo the Dachshund

Disclaimer: This is NOT A SPONSORED POST, I just thought it would be fun to share my boxed adventures and thought some of you might enjoy hearing about this great website. Coupon code is a special referral code for all my friends.

Farmhouse Helper

Farmhouse Helper // Ammo the Dachshund

Every day my best friend Trooper is just a wee bit closer to being able to move into his new house on the farm. I know, I know, I’ve been saying that for years…..but this is definitely going to be the year!

Farmhouse Helper // Ammo the Dachshund

Especially since I’ve been around the lend a helping paw! Just check out the video below of me collecting the trash into a nice little pile….

Watch this video on instagram.

Farmhouse Helper // Ammo the Dachshund

I’m a pretty enthusiastic helper, as you can see.

Farmhouse Helper // Ammo the Dachshund

Trooper on the other hand never looks thrilled about helping out. But honestly, I don’t blame him….he’s been helping everyday for years!

Farmhouse Helper // Ammo the Dachshund

Don’t worry buddy, the work will be done soon (we hope), and you’ll be able to nap in your new house!

Clean Teeth Club

Clean Teeth // Ammo the Dachshund

Recently I went to my annual vet check-up, and while I got a clean bill of health (yay!), my vet did suggest I get back on the teeth brushing bandwagon.

Clean Teeth // Ammo the Dachshund

Truth be told, I sort of fell off that bandwagon a while ago. I know, shame on me.

Clean Teeth // Ammo the Dachshund

While I wouldn’t consider myself a “difficult” patient when it comes to teeth brushing, it’s not exactly easy to brush them.

Clean Teeth // Ammo the Dachshund

Clean Teeth // Ammo the Dachshund

I blame it on a tiny little mouth, and the fact that I have these clumsy paws. It just ends up being sort of awkward.

Clean Teeth // Ammo the Dachshund

So when my friends over at Chewy.com sent me some of these TropiClean Fresh Breath +Plus Advanced Cleaning System Dental Dog Treats I was excited to try something yummy to clean my teeth instead.

Since mom always checks the ingredients on my treats first she was glad to see they were safe: Potato Starch, Tapioca Starch, Glycerin, Dried Beet Pulp, Natural Chicken Flavor, Cane Molasses, Chicken, Gelatin, Ground Flaxseed, Water, Poultry Fat (Preserved with mix tocopherols) Sodium Bicarbonate, Lecithin,  Parsley Flakes, Green Tea Extract, Sorbic Aced (preservative), Blueberry Powder, Vitamin E Supplement, Zinc Proteinate, Rosemary Extract.

Clean Teeth // Ammo the Dachshund

So, let’s give these treats a whirl, and get my lovely smile back to pearly white!

Clean Teeth // Ammo the Dachshund

Clean Teeth // Ammo the Dachshund

Only time will tell if these chews will help to clean up my teeth, but I’m going to try my hardest to keep up with the regime, especially since it tastes so good!

Clean Teeth // Ammo the Dachshund

To help aide in my new adventure towards whiter teeth, mom also purchased me some of this Clean Teeth Gel made by Tropiclean. 

Key Benefits

  • Removes plaque and tartar
  • Soothes irritated gums
  • Reduces risk of periodontal disease
  • Safe for cats and dogs
  • No toothbrush required

No toothbrush required is my favorite benefit, and mom says the ingredients aren’t so bad either: Purified Water, Natural Derived Alcohol, Natural Mint, Glycerin, Natural Cleanser, Carbopol, Chlorophyllin, Green Tea Leaf Extract.

I’ll be sure to give you all an update next month on if my teeth are any whiter and brighter!Ammo the Dachshund

Disclosure: This is a sponsored post by Chewy.com, but all opinions are my own. And while they did send me a package of Tropiclean dental chews, I did purchase the clean teeth gel on my own.
