Farm Lookouts

Barn Dogs Get Busy on the Farm

As barn dogs, there is always a lot of tasks for Trooper and I to do. And to be honest, this farm just wouldn’t run properly without us.

Trooper is always on my case to help him be a lookout. “Lookout for low flying birds” “Lookout for cars pulling down the farm driveway” “Lookout for anything suspicious and out of the ordinary”

I on the other hand usually have my own ideas about what we should be actually looking out for.

What about “Lookout for the snakes that accidentally get baled in the hay”

Or “Lookout for yummy missed poop in the pony stalls”

“Lookout for people in boots who might mistakenly step on you”

And “Lookout for ponies who look cute, but are really thinking maybe they didn’t get enough to eat”.

So Trooper can keep a lookout for strangers who might want to brush our ponies (the horror), and whatever other boring stuff he comes up with….

…and I’ll continue to lookout for the important stuff. Because we all know that pony poop isn’t going anywhere except for my belly! Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity

Trooper and I pride ourselves in being super awesome barn dogs. We take our jobs very seriously, and immerse ourselves in everything on the farm.

Our favorite thing to “immerse” ourselves in on the farm……pony poop! We’re so fortunate that our farm has an abundance of it too. Did you know it’s a real delicacy in dog culture?

After a day of “farm life” Trooper and I can get pretty stinky (just how we like it). Our mom’s haven’t come to appreciate the highly cultivated “barn dog scent” yet, so alas a roll in the manure pile inevitably leads to bath time.

Thanks to our new friends at Absorbine® we now have a product that makes the whole bath experience quicker so Trooper and I can get back to our farm duties faster!

Now all we had to do was wait for Boomerang to get out of the wash stall…..he always hogs all the warm water!

Mom loved how it made it easy to wash two dogs at once in the barn wash stall (since there wasn’t anywhere convenient to tie us up to) and all she needed was a hose and the Woof Pouf.

After our baths we smelled fantastic, even Trooper’s longer hair that traps stinky odors daily smelled great for days after his bath.

Farm Duty

On the Farm // Ammo the Dachshund

Sometimes when we are out on the farm my buddy Trooper tends to be a little bit of a lost soul. He mopes around with that towel in his mouth, unsure about what to do next.

But Trooper is a herding dog, so I know when he has his towel he just really needs to be put to work. So lucky for him I’m an expert at putting my buddy to work.

All I have to do is point Trooper towards the ponies and he’s stuck to them like glue.

Well, at least until he gets tired – so that’s why I have to keep my eyes on him at all times and make sure he keeps working.

Now that my Trooper babysitting duties are fulfilled I can get back to what I really love to do on the farm!
