DoggieLawn Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Last week an interesting looking package arrived at the shop (aka my place of work).

Upon popping the top, I was surprised to find a box of real grass! From my pals over at DoggieLawn, this “box of grass” is a convenient indoor potty system for your dog! With monthly subscription options, and several different sizes, this box of real grass is shipped to your door every month in a convenient disposable box for your dog to do it’s business on.

So mom popped it down in the shop and let me inspect my DoggieLawn.

It certainly smelled like real grass and weighs slightly more than half as much as standard sod for easy lifting. It’s also “soil-less” which means it contains none of the dirt you find in sod.

DoggieLawn recommends spritzing your grass with water every 1-2 days and picking up any solids your pet leaves behind until your new box arrives in the mail. Then simply toss the old one!

While I am a completely house trained dog and mom never used pee pads or any other indoor training device to house train me, I can see the benefit to using one of these boxes when training a puppy, for older dogs who can’t hold it, or for people who live in apartments.

Since the idea of doing my business indoors is quite foreign to me, I didn’t quite grasp the concept of using the box to go to the bathroom. But even if your dog doesn’t take to the box right away DoggieLawn offers free training support. They also have the ability to add a pheromone scent to your box (so that it will smell like dog urine and your dog may be more inclined to use it) – or you can even add some of your own dog’s urine to it. Which for me I think might be the trick to training me to use it, because who wants another dog’s urine in their box of grass….gotta cover that stink up!

So instead of using my DoggieLawn as a potty, for the time being I found it quite useful as a napping spot!

After all, I’d rather be outside than in….so while I’m stuck at work all day, why not bring a little of the outdoors in!

I’m definitely going to keep DoggieLawn on my list of items that may be useful as I age (although mom says I’m not ever allowed to get old), because indoor potty grass sounds like the perfect thing to help you “age gracefully”, if you know what I mean!

P.S. Don’t forget, today is the last day to enter my giveaway for a Blanket Dog Bed!

 

One Last Adventure Before Bed

In the wee afternoon hours as the sun begins to set I’m always reminded that my time outside for the day is coming to an end.

In a panic I realize I only have a few short hours to finish up my outdoor adventures.

There are important things to smell outside and the days just never seem long enough.

And more importantly I must get all my sniffing in quickly before my outdoor jungle succumbs to Dad’s lawnmower! The horror!

My pony & me

There is one thing on the farm that gets my tail wagging more than anything else.

ammo the dachshund and minnow

His name is Minnow, and he’s my very special pony.

My love for him is so great, that I can’t help but go bounding through the fields in excitement!

Sometimes when I hang out with Minnow I like to pretend I’m a pony too. Nibbling grass all day long.

Then other times I get bored of being a pony and I like to do dog things with Minnow.

Minnow’s not so great at playing fetch though, but I can still pretend.

At least I don’t have to worry about him stealing the stick from me – he’s really great at sharing like that.

Sometimes I just love spending so much time with Minnow that I really don’t want to leave.

I secretly always hope that I get to have a sleepover with him, because mom doesn’t even notice me out in the pasture since I look just like all the other ponies. A boy can dream can’t he?

Ex-Assistant

This is my favorite pony, Minnow.

Minnow is a famous painter, so famous, that every year he gets invited to return to his roots and visit Chincoteague Island for the annual Pony Penning, and paint for the thousands of visitors to the island.

But, instead of taking me as his assistant, he took my mom. Which (boo hoo) is exactly why I refused to help him paint right before he left!

ammo in tall grass

See, that’s me, refusing to help.

And if you need further proof, here’s me pretending to sleep so I won’t have to help him pack for his trip either.

I’m not sure if I can make it all week without my momma. And even worse……I don’t get to go to the farm either! What am I gonna do!?

P.S. Minnow, if you are reading this, you better bring me back something good!
