Every now and then a new box of treats shows up at my door, and when it’s from my friends at The Honest Kitchen, you know it’s going to be a good day.

If you weren’t already aware, The Honest Kitchen makes dehydrated pet food and treats for dogs and cats that I myself eat on a regular basis. You may have caught some of my previous product reviews with their foods on the blog.

Well these Wonders treats are no exception to The Honest Kitchen’s great line, and these bits of Pollock skin sourced from the Faroe Islands were just too fishy for me to resist.

Just when I thought I would be snacking on my own…..

….the delicious smell of Pollock started to attract some attention from my friends.

Dachshund Goes Camping in the Rain

Tent Camping in the Rain with Ammo the Dachshund

Every year I go tent camping with friends during the summer. It’s a fun trip (filled with dog friendly adventures) that I look forward to all year long!

Especially since I get to spend all weekend with this lovely lady, my pal Shilah the Husky!

This year’s camping trip was a little different, because when I woke up on Saturday morning it was raining. And not just a little bit of rain, it POURED ALL-DAY-LONG!

The rain sort of put a damper on all the fun activities we had planned, but lucky for me mom packed my raincoat, and I wasn’t going to let the wetness stop me from having a good time.

The campsite we rented this year came with a bare-bones rustic cabin (although I always tent camp!), and thankfully the porch provided the perfect haven for lounging during the heavy rain.

Eventually we all started to get cabin fever though, and when the rain lightened up just a bit it was time to venture out for some outdoor fun (with our raincoats of course).

Even my camera crew dressed appropriately for the weather – so that I would have all these great pictures to share with you!

Our campsite had this neat stream that ran through it, and I quickly discovered my new favorite activity…..FISHING!

Consider my mind fully blown when Shilah’s dad actually caught a fish!

BEST DAY EVER! I love fishing!

And then when the fish we caught got released back into the water I couldn’t help myself from starting my own rescue mission. I mean he might drown!

I never did succeed, hopefully Mr. Fish was a good swimmer!

After a full day in the cold wet rain we all were a bit soggy, myself included.

So we had to make a trip into town to dry off, get food (for the folks that didn’t eat dog food), and make a walmart run for more rain gear!

After all my excitement in the rain I was pretty pooped. Thankfully my tent was nice and dry, and the perfect haven to rest up for another day of camping fun!

Stay tuned next week when I continue my adventures in the woods, where I even made a trip to the lake!

P.S. Special thanks to Shilah’s mom from Mrs. Dailey’s Classroom for all the great photos of our soggy camping experience (the ones not watermarked with my website)!Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity

Camping in the Pocono Mountains

Camping in the Pocono Mountains with Ammo the Dachshund

Over the weekend I packed my bags and headed for the mountains, the Pocono Mountains to be exact, for a weekend of camping and fun with my pal Shilah the Husky.

Shilah and I both made our way to the mountains ready for some adventures, and a bit of relaxing too.

Our rustic retreat included a super fun footbridge (the only way across the river) that Shilah and I thought was a blast!

Our parents perhaps could of wished they could park the car a little closer to our campsite. But like I say, a little exercise never hurt anyone!

Our digs for the weekend included a fun little cabin (although I opted to set-up and sleep in my tent) in the woods.

I of course wasted no time checking out all necessary “holes” to make sure no critters were intruding on our campsite.

The accommodations were quite rustic, including this outdoor shower, but when you’re a dog – none of that really matters does it!

A few steps from camp was a stream, complete with my very own waterfall!

Dad had fun casting out the fishing rod – which was a first for me. I’ve also since discovered that I get about as worked up about fishing as my adventurous pal, Crusoe the Dachshund. Although my main goal is trying to save that little bobber (or tiny floating ball as I saw it) from “drowning”. Mom says I need to work on the idea that fishing is supposed to be a relaxing sport, not a “bark as loud as you can and frantically try to save things out of the water” sport.

Aside from fishing, Shilah and I had fun relaxing around the campsite – taking in as much outdoor time as we could!

After a full day of fun, Shilah and I were ready for some campfire food! Unfortunately all we got was kibble…..but the smells were enough to make a dog drool.

As the night rolled on Shilah and I grew tired of patrolling the campsite in our Glowdoggies, and it seemed it was time to call it a night.

I snuggled into my sleeping bag dreaming of all the critters I would hunt for the next day…

My friends over at Chewy.com recently sent over this package of Evanger’s Wild Salmon Freeze Dried Treats for me to try.

They smelled so delish that I couldn’t even keep my paws off them long enough for mom to snap a few photos.

Wild Salmon is high in protein and low in calories and saturated fat. Great to give your pets with food allergies and they’re also made in the USA.

Evanger's Wild Salmon Treats Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Made with just one ingredient (Salmon) these treats tasted like they were fresh out of the stream! They were a bit too crumbly to be used as a training treat when we are out and about, but made for the perfect after dinner snack!

Early Spring at the Lake

Posted on by

In Pennsylvania we’re having an early Spring this year. Even though today is the official first day of Spring, in the weeks leading up we’ve been having glorious 70 degree weather.

I’m all about this warm weather, which is why yesterday I decided to take a trip with my ponies to Marsh Creek State Park.

Blitz and Boomerang went for a little dip in the lake while I got to do some exploring.

Did you know that it smells like fish at the lake? I don’t know about you, but I LOVE fish.

Even though I really wanted to do some fishing, the water was a bit chilly for me.

I didn’t catch any fish this time, but I did find a stick. Highlight of my day!

I also found this neat rock.

And then I got really brave, and actually took a dip in the lake!

Next time I plan to bring a raft so I can float out just as far as the ponies can! And Boomerang promised me he’d learn how to use a fishing pole. I’m so excited!

Anyone else having an early Spring this year? Have you been on any Spring adventures yet? I’m already compiling my list of Summer activities that I want to do this year! Yipee!
