Hunting Groundhogs – Superdog style

Everybody knows that when hunting groundhogs there is one major accessory that you must have. THE SUPER CAPE!

It gives you lightning speed and super digging powers.

Apparently Trooper missed the memo about the super capes.

Looks like I’ll have to venture underground solo on this one!

I’m Ammo the Dachshund, and I’m faster than a speeding bullet!

Super Duper

Wow! We’re only a week away from my big performance at the Keystone Dachshund Races with my pal, Trooper. Trooper has been practicing really hard, he had to learn several new tricks in the past few weeks. So I finally decided that Trooper had earned a little reward for his efforts.

So mom and dad helped me build my pal a Super Hero Box! (Just like mine – only bigger). Of course it turned out so great, that I had to take it for a little spin myself.

And no super hero is complete without a super cape! So my pal Baxter’s mom whipped up a cape especially for my buddy Trooper.

I totally had to take it for a test spin.

 

“Um, mom, do you think Trooper would mind if I kept his cape and box?”

 

Friday Fetch: Dog-Gone Fun via Loose Leashes

For today’s Friday Fetch I figured since we’re heading into memorial day weekend that it might be nice to have a little fun! So I decided to grab some of my favorite shots from canine photographer, Ron Schmidt of Loose Leashes!

I hope that it’s a reminder to everyone to let loose a little and enjoy life.

P.S. Mr. Ron, if you are in need of a spunky dachshund in a super hero cape for one of your shoots, I would be happy to oblige!

I’d fit right in huh?


 

Gone Tanning

 

Yes, that’s me all sprawled out in my yard. Don’t worry though, I’m not in distress….no, I’m just working on my tan!

It’s called the weenie roast – and I’m pretty much an expert at it.

Yesterday I did a whole lot of “baking”, in preparation for the big party!

Because today is my dad’s Birthday! Happy Birthday!

Here’s me playing a game of washers with my dad and his friends at the party! It was so much fun.

Now I’m off to wrap my dad’s present. I can’t wait to give it to him! Hopefully he’ll let me help unwrap, since I’m such an expert at opening presents. Yipee.

Sounds of the Farm

You might think that the farm is a peaceful and quiet place, but the truth is, it can be quite noisy at times! Birds chirping, horses’ banging buckets, and we can’t forget Spider Kitty calling for her big brother Ammo to come out and play.

 

But, no matter what, the farm is my favoritiest place to be. And noise or no noise, I wouldn’t change a thing!

Training Super Trooper

I might have worked my poor friend Trooper to near exhaustion.

The horses talked it over and agree, that’s one tired pooch!

But honestly, how does Trooper think he’s going to earn his cape if he doesn’t practice? And practice hard!

I admit, I’m a pretty tough trainer.

And sometimes, Trooper just needs someone to show him what to do…..

Yeah I know I’m so amazing. But, lets just hope I whip Trooper into shape before his big performance!

Cat in the Hat

Sometimes we wrestle. Sometimes we go hunting. Sometimes we sunbathe. And other times…….we like to wear silly hats together.

This is Spider – and she would like to be a painter too. So I let her borrow my beret.

Sometimes I have trouble sharing. Don’t tell my mom.

Friday Fetch: Doggie Hair Do’s

I may not be follically-challenged (at least yet…..well aside from my bare belly), but that doesn’t mean I couldn’t have a blast dawning these hilarious doggie hair do’s from Bitch New York.

Seriously, how laughable would I be in a Sarah Palin wig, or with a Shirley Temple do?

All the wigs come with a strap that can be adjusted for each dog. The wigs are light and comfortable to wear, and are also restyle-able.

You can fetch your own stylin’ wig over at Bitch New York.

$24 – $50

UPDATE – these products are unfortunately no longer available.

I was not paid or perk’d to share this product. I just think it’s totally pawesome!

The Cat-Dog

I really think she has no clue.

And she must be spending way too much time with me. Not that I blame her. I am a super fun guy. But really, just look at that face….

….that’s the face of a CAT, not a dog, a CAT. And Spider the kitten really has no clue that she’s supposed to be a cat. Which is probably why Spider has taken to chasing her tail on a regular basis:

 

just like her big brother Ammo…
