A Dog Toy that Helps Women & Children in Ethiopia + A Giveaway

As dogs there are only a few things Trooper and I think about on a daily basis: Eat, Sleep, Play. Repeat. But what if I told you by doing one of those things there is a way you could help others? Pretty cool, right?

A Dog Toy that Helps Women & Children in Ethiopia + A Giveaway

See my friends over at WO Design have come out with an interactive chew toy (the WO Bone) and a flying disc/tug toy (the WO Disc) that help provide meals for widows & orphans in Ethiopia with every purchase. As of the fall of 2016, WO Design has successfully provided over 13,000 meals for widows & orphans in Ethiopia and has plans for providing aid in other parts of the world (with your help) as well.

With each WO product you purchase it directly funds meals for widows and orphans globally. WO Design has partnered with an organization in Ethiopia called Bring Love In (BLI) to help feed orphans and widows in their organization, and these meals often represent the highest amount of nutrition that these folks get in any given day.

Now while I love a company that’s mission is to help others, we have to address the important stuff in this review too….like the toys!

Trooper and I got to test out the WO Disc and the WO Bone.

Both toys are made from a soft and durable WO pet material that is BPA-free, phthalate-free, non-toxic and FDA compliant.

And while no dog toy is completely indestructible, these WO toys certain lasted up to Trooper and mine’s rigorous testing.

We even took laps around the house with the WO Bone just to be sure.

Thanksgiving Roadtrip: Shopping in Charleston

Thanksgiving is obviously well behind us, but with the craziness that is Christmas I never got to finish telling you all about my adventures on my last road trip! So today I wanted to share my fun shopping excursions in Charleston, South Carolina!

Thanksgiving Road Trip: Pet Friendly Shopping in Charleston

Trooper and I are always very excited when we are involved in the family outings during vacation. While most dogs might sit at home Trooper and I are included in as much as possible, and you better believe I wasn’t going to let them leave me out of a shopping adventure!

Thanksgiving Road Trip: Pet Friendly Shopping in Charleston

Before heading to Charleston we made a stop at this cute market on Folly Beach. Apparently it’s a mini “grocery store” according to mom and dad.

Now I’ve never been in a grocery store before, because they are normally a “no dogs allowed” place, but Bert’s Market is super dog friendly! I guess in a small beach town you can have those luxuries.

And to be honest, I’m a little peeved that I was never allowed in this glorious place with all things edible before!

Trooper and I agree, it’s almost better than the pet store! *Drool*

Before hitting Charleston for some more shopping Trooper and I stopped off at the Disc Golf course to watch some of my family play. My buddy Sharkie was there too making sure no discs ended up in the lake. Apparently he’s an expert at rescuing drowning discs…..go Sharkie!

Then it was off to downtown Charleston for some shopping!

Trooper decided to wait in the car while I hit up all the best stores. I love that most of the shops are pet friendly!

Of course even in the “human” stores I was able to find the dog stuff! This shop had some fun gear from one of my favorite retailers, Ruffwear.

Most of the shops I visited became a blur, but eventually we found a cute little pet shop and mom bought me some of my favorite treats.

By the time I made it back to the car I was pretty exhausted. Shopping is a very tough job, but nothing a little cat nap can’t fix.

It’s a good thing Trooper didn’t hit the shops like I did, because he couldn’t even make it through our next lunch stop without passing out. He’s such a lightweight!

My trip to South Carolina was shaping up to be such fun adventure, and don’t worry, I’ve still got a few more tales to share too!

Jones Natural Dog Chews Review & Giveaway

Disclaimer: This post and giveaway is brought to you by Jones Natural Chews Co. All opinions are my own, and I only share products I think you will love!

Jones Natural Dog Chews Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

My tail is wagging, because recently I made some new friends! That’s right, the folks at Jones Natural Chews Co. are my new buddies, because they mailed me MEAT!

Jones Natural Dog Chews Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Not just any meat, a whole frisbee full of meat (their Spring Fling goodie Frisbee to be exact).

And when you get a Frisbee full of 100% USA made meat products, there is really only one thing to do….

Jones Natural Dog Chews Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

….throw on your best party hat and have a Par-Tay!

Jones Natural Dog Chews Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Well, a party of one….but still a party! (I didn’t really want to share with anyone else anyway).

Jones Natural Dog Chews Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Jones Natural Chews only uses raw product sourced from the USA and does not use any artificial ingredients to keep their products natural. If that weren’t enough to get you drooling, they also slowly oven bake their meats to keep the bones at proper moisture levels and to produce bones that are consistent with raw bone density.

Jones Natural Dog Chews Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Jones Natural Chews also tests all of their bones for splintering. They conduct pressure tests and moisture tests to ensure the best bone strength. But it’s always best to supervise your pet when feeding them. My mom never allows me to have chews or treats when she isn’t there to watch me closely. Safety first!

You can visit the Jones Natural Chews website to find a retailer near you, or shop online for these yummy chews and more! Also be sure to check out the JNC Blog for even more fun!

Adventures in Disc Golf

Adventures in Disc Golf // Ammo the Dachshund

Last weekend I took a trip to the French Creek State Park – which would prove to be my first adventure on the Disc Golf Course.

A combination of frisbee and golf, the object is to get your frisbee into the provided targets at each hole.

Of course I was a natural – as I am with most things! *wink*

Aside from the goal of throwing the frisbee around the course, there was quite a bit for me to investigate on this adventure.

Being in the wilderness is one of my all time favorite things – but after a day of trekking around the course I was quite happy that this state park had a lake too.

Nothing like a dip in the water to beat the heat!

 

If you’re looking for a dog friendly adventure check out the French Creek State Park. The trails are pet friendly as is the boat rental. Also lots of camping areas that allow pets. Ammo the Dachshund
