Wellness Trufood Review & Giveaway
Wellness Trufood now available at your local PetsMart #TrueLoveIsYou might remember a few months ago I tried out the new pet food line, Wellness® Trufood®. I’ve been eating the Wellness brand as part of my rotational diet since I was just a wee pup, and I was thrilled when they came out with the new Trufood line.

TruFood has 70% more raw protein than most dry pet foods and they only use whole-prey proteins full of natural vitamins and minerals (as well as kale, broccoli and green beans) that pets need to thrive.

Thank goodness eating healthy tastes so good too!

TruFood uses Grain Free fiber such as chickpeas, flaxseed and lentils that pets may digest better. Powerful superfoods such as beets, blueberries, and cranberries to help maintain a healthy weight and support the immune system.

TruFood recipes also contain pumpkin, ginger and turmeric and live yogurt cultures to help support a healthy digestive system. Mom had been reading more about the benefits of turmeric in preventing cancer in dogs among many other things, so I was excited to learn that Wellness TruFood contains this in their line too.

Summer Tubing with Ammo the Dachshund

A few weekends ago some of my family from out of town came for a visit. Since I’m always up for a fun adventure, I decided to show them a good time with a weekend excursion on the river!

River Tubing with Ammo the Dachshund

Just down the road from the family farm is the Brandywine River, which is the perfect place to do some river tubing on a hot day!

River Tubing with Ammo the Dachshund

Since this wasn’t my first tubing adventure I got pretty brave and performed some dare-devilish (I was Evel Knievel for Halloween after all) stunts on the tubes by balancing on the edge!

I wasn’t the only one enjoying the river that day either, we even found this adorable turtle taking a dip!

As the sun started to set over the river I decided to trade in my tube for a canoe since it was getting a little chilly in the water.

I love to navigate the waters and I always have to stand at the very tip of the canoe (so I get to see everything first), even if it means that I might occasionally fall overboard. Not to worry though, I’m a pretty good swimmer!

River Tubing with Ammo the Dachshund

Eventually we decided to park the canoe so we could take a swim in the river, which is also where I got to perform my very first water rescue!

Ok technically no one was ever really drowning, but how was I supposed to know that? I’m a Super Hero trained to save people, and when you’re a teeny tiny dog like me everything looks dangerous!

River Tubing with Ammo the Dachshund

Thankfully everyone survived the rope swing, and I made sure my entire family made it back into their rafts for the remainder of the trip home.

River Tubing with Ammo the Dachshund

Well, that is until we hit a river road block! “Everyone stay with your flotation device, keep your hands inside the raft, and do not drown!”

Phew! River Tubing is stressful for a Super Hero!Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity

Do you think your dog would attempt to save you if you were drowning? (Don’t worry, I’m sure they probably would….unless there was an alluring groundhog hole nearby of course!)

Happiness and Buttercups

You know, sometimes it’s the simple things in life that can bring you the greatest joy.

Ammo the Dachshund Runs through a Field of Buttercups

For example, a few weeks ago I happened across a field of buttercups while on a walk with my mom and dad. And what I did next instantly put a smile on my face…

And to get the full effect you have to run like no one’s watching.

12 Days of Cheer! Annual Christmas Parade

12 Days of Cheer! Annual Christmas Parade // Ammo the Dachshund

Every year I look forward to a very special event in my home town. And that special event is the holiday Christmas parade! And lucky for me I always have a front row seat right outside my shop window in town!

12 Days of Cheer! Annual Christmas Parade // Ammo the Dachshund

Of course when the parade starts I’m always the first one out the door to cheer for all my favorite floats and parade attendees.

I’m always sure to sing along with the school bands in my best cheerful Christmas voice – because singing loudly for all to hear is the best way to spread Christmas Cheer!

Pretty colors, holiday happiness – it’s what makes this time of year oh so special.

And lets not forget the Christmas clown…..because laughter always brightens everyone’s day!

Also, in case you were wondering, don’t worry, I wasn’t the only pup in attendance during the Christmas parade. Just check out this pup who took one for the team and dressed up as one of Santa’s reindeer! He looked so convincing I almost asked him for directions to the North Pole!

But the very best part of the holiday Christmas Parade is always when Santa arrives!

I made sure to shout out my Christmas list as we rode by…..incase he missed my other 5 letters I mailed to the North Pole!

Merry Christmas! Ammo the Dachshund

Officially Summer

This past Saturday was the official start of summer.

Officially Summer // Ammo the Dachshund

To say I’m thrilled is an understatement! I’m ready for backyard cookouts, trips to the lake, beach adventures, swimming, ice cream (the dog friendly kind), camping, and everything that comes with warm summer months.

But most of all I’m excited for summer sun bathing in my backyard!
