Friday Fetch: Antler Dog Toys

Posted on November 22, 2013 by Ammo

I’m no stranger to antler chews, but an antler chew AND a dog toy, now that’s something I can totally get behind. Smoky Mountain Studio uses 100% natural, North American deer or elk antlers that are naturally shed. Antlers help clean teeth and last a long time and are also odor free with no dyes or preservatives.

You can fetch your own Antler Chew Dog Toy from Smoky Mountain Studio for about $25.

Kentucky Bluebird Kennel Bed Review & Giveaway

Posted on November 11, 2013 by Ammo

Disclaimer: This review and giveaway is brought to you by Kentucky Bluebird.

Did you ever just want to curl up and take a nap on the fluffiest, softest thing you can find? Well thanks to my pals at Kentucky Bluebird, your search for the fluffiest napping spot is over!

Kentucky Blue Birds Kennel Bed Product Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Kentucky Bluebird kindly sent me over one of their 100% certified organic canvas dog beds to take for a spin, and let me tell you, this thing is like napping on a cloud! The insides of these beds are stuffed with recycled polyester fill, and are securely stitched into place – so even the most powerful diggers (ahem, me) can’t tear them apart.

I was sent a 28″ x 18″ bed in fern green, but these beds come in lots of sizes and 9 different colors, and can even be custom made to any size you need.

Kentucky Blue Birds Kennel Bed Product Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

My Kentucky Bluebird bed fit perfectly into a dog kennel that I already owned.

Don’t have a kennel? These can just as easily be used as dog bed in any room, and I even think it would be great to travel with as it’s just big enough for me to curl up on but not too big to take up a ton of space.

As you can see it’s 6″ of fluff was so comfortable that I had trouble even keeping my eyes open long enough for mom to take pictures.

Mom even caught me napping in my crate several times over the past few weeks with this fluffy bed. And if you know me, you know this is VERY RARE, because I don’t particularly love being in crates.
