Create Custom Holiday Gift Wrap Featuring Your Pets!

Even though Thanksgiving hasn’t quite arrived yet, we all have the next big holiday on our minds, Christmas!

And as much as you don’t want to admit it, I know you’re all looking forward to one thing…..THE PRESENTS! (well and maybe all the holiday snacks too).

Create Custom Holiday Gift Wrap Featuring Your Pets!

Since I love presents about as much as I love rolling in stink on the farm (and that’s a lot!), I’m so excited to share with you Stardust Prints! They’re an online shop that can help you “Unwrap Imagination” by creating your very own custom gift wrap.

See, if you look a little closer, you’ll notice that cute little dachshund in a Santa hat on my gift wrap is me!! How cool is that?

At Stardust prints you can upload your own photo and have it turned into wrapping paper!

Create Custom Holiday Gift Wrap Featuring Your Pets!

Since Christmas is almost here, and I’ve got lots of goodies to wrap up for all my dog friends, I decided to use a photo of me from last year in my Santa hat. (but you can use any photo, even one that has a distracting background)

Then you can choose a wrapping paper design from Stardust Prints. They have several to choose from, and not just Christmas themed ones either.

I decided to go with the Hot Choc pattern, if only because it had an awesome polar bear on it!

Then the folks at Stardust Prints cuts the star of your photo (that’s me of course) out of it’s background, add it to your wrapping paper design, and mail you a 24 x 72-inch roll, which is enough to wrap 3-5 presents.

When it arrived it was almost too cute to unwrap….but that didn’t really stop me from sinking my teeth in!

Well that is until mom informed me that there would be no unwrapping of gifts until December 25th. Boohoo!

Everyday Dog Gear

Noodle and Friends Executive Coat Product Review // Ammo the Dachshund

I like to think that I’m a pretty stylish dog. I love to shop, and over the years I’ve tested and tried some of the best dog products on the market. I like to think that you (my readers) agree, because one of the common questions I get in e-mails, blog comments, and social media is where did I get a particular product I am seen wearing.

Ruffwear Front Range Harness Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

So I decided to create a whole new page on my blog dedicated to all the gear that I own, have tested, and absolutely love!

Frozen Lake // Ammo the Dachshund

So I invite you to check out my new Gear page, where I’ve compiled a list of all the gear I own and where you can grab it for your own dog too. From pet food, to winter wear, and even the photography gear my mom uses to take the photos for my blog!

So head on over and check it out, and if you’re wondering about something on the list, just shoot me an e-mail at info@ammothedachshund.com! With such an extensive list, it’s entirely possible I forgot to list something!

Happy Shopping!

P.S. If you have any special pet gear that you love too be sure to post it in the comments below, I love to hear what other pets and pet lovers are digging!Ammo the Dachshund
