Super Heroes at the Oscars

Oscars 2014

So I heard that during the Oscars (airing on March 2nd) they will be celebrating movie characters who save the day. You know, like Super Heroes!

But my only question is, where is my invite?

Ammo the Dachshund - Super Hero - On the Moon

You see, I’m a Super Hero too!

Not only that, but I even starred in my very own Super Hero Movie with my pal Super Minnow the Pony!

So while I’m sure the Oscars will be an exciting event, it will never be as spectacular as it could have been if a certain pony and his canine friend were invited to partake!

The paparazzi would of swarmed me anyway, so perhaps it’s better I get to just watch from the comfort of my own couch.

You might even remember last year I got all fancied up for the occasion, but alas, I guess it’s not my time to grace the red carpet. However, I’m sure you could put in your requests on the Academy’s Facebook Page for a certain little dachshund celebrity to be in attendance for next year! Paws crossed!

And if you’re looking for something extra fun to make watching the Oscars on the couch (like me) exciting, check out this fun Free 2014 printable Oscar Bingo. Be sure to share your fun along with me on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, use hashtag #oscarswithammo Ammo the Dachshund

In a Foggy Backyard

Once upon a time in a foggy back yard there was a tiny little dog with great big digging paws.

He found a scent and dug and dug until his hearts content.

With all that snow he could find holes to dig in for days and days!

Oh and what’s that….there’s something there under the snow….

oh yup, that little digging pup found a treasure! Only something tiny little dogs with great big digging paws could uncover. Bunny poop!

And if you want to come over to my foggy back yard I’ll gladly share my digging treasure with all of you! Ammo the Dachshund

Throwback Thursday: A Dog and his Kitten

spider the kitten

My cat pal Spider has been living on the farm for several years now and over the years I have gotten to watch her grow into the cat that she is today – all thanks to me. It’s true, when she was just a wee little kitten I taught her all of the important things to know….

Like how to chew on sticks….

and climb trees….

Without me she would be lost! Ammo the Dachshund

Big Blizzard

2014 Blizzard with Ammo the Dachshund

Last Thursday when I awoke there was a whole lot of snow outside my door. As in 15+ inches of fluffy white stuff!

Of course the first thing I did was pile on my jackets and head outdoors to catch some snowflakes!

Running like a crazy dog through the snow was totally worth being chilly for just a few minutes. So fun in fact, that I headed out to the farm for some more winter adventures with my ponies!

Despite the inches upon inches of snow we received (and keep continuing to receive), I just can’t get on board with “snow bashing”. It might be cold and wet, difficult for mom and dad to shovel, and somewhat of a hazard – but when else do you get to make memories like these? Snowday fun is just the kind of adventures I needed this winter!

How about you, do you enjoy snow day adventures as much as me?

Nipomo Imprints Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund - Super Hero

You might also remember that I asked all of you to weigh in how I should use my new decals on my trick box (and maybe even my helmet). Well a long 6 months later I FINALLY got around to giving my trick box a little updating!

Mom helped me scrape off my old decal, add a fresh coat of paint, and reapply my decal from Nipomo Imprints for a brand-new look!

I think it turned out pretty spiffy!

Next though, I think my helmet might be begging for a fresh coat of paint! Super heroes can’t wear dinged up helmets of course! Ammo the Dachshund

Throwback Thursday: A Puppy’s First Trip to the Beach

Road Trip with Ammo - Dog Friendly Beaches in Isle of Palms, South Carolina

My love affair with the ocean started when I was just about a year old. For me it was love at first sight. How can you not love a place that has beaches for miles just begging to be dug up or waves that bring ashore critters to hunt and chase?

Check out this video from my very first encounter with the ocean just after I had celebrated my first birthday!

Do your pups enjoy the ocean too? Ammo the Dachshund

Sledding with the Ponies

Sledding with the Ponies // Ammo the Dachshund

Over the weekend I decided to go on a sledding adventure at the farm. So I grabbed my favorite ponies (Minnow, Blitz and Boomer) and hitched them to a sled for some fun!

Sledding with the Ponies // Ammo the Dachshund

Trooper and I had a blast chasing the sleds – we even made it a little friendly competition out of who could get there first. (it was me incase you were wondering)

Dad even broke out his snowboard for a little more “extreme” fun. We’re a little unconventional around here.
