The 5-in-1 Leash You'll Love + A Giveaway

I’m totally the kind of dog that LOVES a multi-functional product. So when my friends over at HUND Denmark sent over their 5-in-1 Baldy Leash for me to test out I was super excited!

The 5-in-1 Leash You'll Love + A Giveaway

It’s hard to make it come across in photos, but this HUND Denmark Dog Leash has the softest leather I’ve ever felt.

It is a vegetable tanned Italian Leather that is velvety soft, durable and dyed with natural dyes derived from plants. It’s also eco-friendly without the use of chemicals.

Mmmmmm, oh so soft! But what I’m really excited about is the functionality, because with a baby sister on board for most of my walks now anything that makes things easier for my mom is a welcome addition.

See this multifunctional leash can easily be adjusted from 4 feet…

Friday Fetch: Dog Bowties & Purses

Posted on by

I’ve been a big fan of Silly Buddy Bowties for a long time now. In fact the first bowtie I ever owned came from Silly Buddy. So when I recently saw that they partnered with Jenny N. Design to make a line of matching purses I knew my mom would be lusting after one for Dog Mom’s Day.

Wares for Bears Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

As a dog who loves fashion I’ve learned that there is one thing that will make or break my look…and that’s accessories! Today you are in luck, because I can’t wait to share with you some of my newest accessories from my friends at Wares for Bears.

Wares for Bears Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Trooper and I received some awesome handmade bandanas from Wares for Bears recently, and they totally made us feel the part of farm dogs.

Wares for Bears Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

I mean just look at all that fabulous fringe!

Wares for Bears Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

The Wares for Bears bandanas are all made to fit your own dog’s unique neck size with a snap closure. No need to tie them around your dog’s neck like a traditional bandana.

Wares for Bears also donates 10% of their sales to the Seattle Humane Society, a local animal rescue organization that helps to feed, shelter, care, and re-home dogs in need. Now that’s pretty cool!

Wares for Bears Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

They come in sizes for big and small dogs, and in many various patterns and styles. Trooper and I picked out a few that had that fun farm feel to them.

Wares for Bears Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

The really cool part is that they are reversible too. So for the price of one bandana, you can get not one, but two looks…

…polka dots or checks for this one!

And I discovered another fun feature of the Wares for Bears bandanas…..

Friday Fetch: Dog Inspired Handbags

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, my mom has a severe weakness for bags. She has bags for everything – she’s even been known to carry a bag inside a bag! Now that’s just crazy! So when I spotted these fun dog inspired handbags from Rebecca Ray Design I just knew I had to hide them from my mom. And the fact that they are having a spring sale….yeah, my mom shouldn’t be allowed to read this….

Ammo’s Oscar Recap

Posted on by

The stars, the lights, the cameras, and the red carpet – The Oscars was on last night – and of course I was in attendance. Ok well sort of (from my couch at least), but that’s the very best seat in the house anyway.

Oscars Recap // Ammo the Dachshund

Just because I didn’t get to walk the actual red carpet doesn’t mean I didn’t dress the part.

Oscars Recap // Ammo the Dachshund

I wore the always fashionable Silly Buddy Bowtie – and even had a chance to get a little primping done.

Oscars Recap // Ammo the Dachshund

I got my hair did!

Oscars Recap // Ammo the Dachshund

Admittedly my hair dresser isn’t quite up on the most fashionable trends, but I rocked that mullet anyway.

Oscars Recap // Ammo the Dachshund

The oscars provided me with a full night of entertainment as I got down with all the singing & dancing.

Oscars Recap // Ammo the Dachshund

It’s almost as if I was actually there!

Oscars Recap // Ammo the Dachshund

I also had my eyes peeled all night for one of my celebrity pals, Crusoe (you may remember that we both dressed up as Wile E. Coyote this past year for Halloween).

Oscars Recap // Ammo the Dachshund

Crusoe apparently won an Oscar (meyer-weiner) for Best Celebrity Dog (hello, where was my nomination?) – but since the Academy Awards went on well past my bed time I just couldn’t stay awake to see his acceptance speech.

Oscars Recap // Ammo the Dachshund

Oscars Recap // Ammo the Dachshund

I’m sure he just rambled off a list of thank yous that included his squeaky toys and celebrity stylists – so I gather I probably didn’t miss much. *wink*

Even though I didn’t catch an actual glimpse of Crusoe on the red carpet, I have my own speculations as to why Kristen Stewart walked the carpet with crutches (run-in with a shorter than average celebrity??? hummmm Crusoe?). We may never know for sure!

Oscars Recap // Ammo the Dachshund - Kristen Stewart on Crutches

Next year I hope to be out on the red carpet myself – and I’ve already started planning my outfit! I’m thinking a neon yellow tux would really make me jump out in the crowd!

So what about you, what was your favorite part of the oscars this year?

The Year in Pup Culture: Ammo on Animal Planet

Posted on by

The Year in Pup Culture // Ammo the Dachshund on Animal Planet

You might remember that I mentioned that I would be appearing on the new animal planet show, The Year in Pup Culture, which aired on December 22, 2012.

The Year in Pup Culture // Ammo the Dachshund on Animal Planet

It’s an action-packed hour of non-stop, over-the-top cuteness. THE YEAR IN PUP CULTURE looks back at the defining moments of 2012 as only Animal Planet can — with puppies! These adorable pups reenact the most memorable moments of the year, including scenes from top blockbuster movies and ripped-from-the headline bits. If these moments piqued public interest in 2012, they are getting “puppified” in the cutest hour on television.

Well when I actually got to watch my (and Minnow’s) beautiful mug on tv, I was so excited that they actually compared me (yes little old me) to a Kardashian! Am I really that famous? Just check it out for yourself:

Oh yes, you heard right – me and Minnow are like the Kim & Kanye of Animal Planet! Well, except the fact that we’re best friends instead of lovers, although I do love my Minnow dearly. Proof:

Ammo and Minnow

I’m pretty sure this means that I get some designer doggie gear now that I’m associated with the Kardashian clan, right? Or at least a feature on Khloe Kardashian’s or Kim Kardashian’s Blog?

A dog can dream….

 

P.S. I hear Kim & Kanye are expecting their first child  (yes, I keep up with my pop culture)….congrats to the couple, and just FYI I’m available for baby sitting. *wink*
