Adventures at Ludwigs

Adventures at Ludwigs // Ammo the Dachshund

Over the Labor Day Weekend me and my best pony pal Minnow, the Painting Pony, attended the Ludwigs Corner Horse Show.

Our goal, to make as many people smile as we could!

My pal Minnow is pretty good at helping us draw a crowd, I mean just look at his super model pose!

And when he starts to paint everyone can’t help but to be captivated!

Myself included, as I love watching Minnow create his special works of art.

Minnow painted several works of art throughout the day which should be available on his website very soon.

Finally it was my turn to perform, and I showed off some of my expert hoop jumping skills.

I even made it through the flaming hoop of death…..unharmed!

I also shared a few of my circus stunts like rolling my barrel….

….and playing dead!

And for my final heroic stunt, I dove head first though a solid hoop (don’t worry, I wore my helmet for safety!)

After our first performance of the day a nasty thunderstorm rolled through. Minnow went to wait out the storm on the horse trailer while I hunkered down in our tent.

Eventually the sun came back out for just long enough for Minnow to create a few more paintings, even if the crowds had died down pretty drastically!

By the end of the day I was pretty beat! But I’m pretty sure Minnow and I accomplished our goal to make everyone smile! Ammo the Dachshund

Ludwigs Day 2

I’ll admit, after Day 1 at the Ludwigs Corner Horse Show I was a little tired. It’s hard being adorable all the time.

But, mom brought out the big guns (aka chicken) and I was more than happy to show everyone my favorite tricks!

Not trying to brag, but no one plays dead like I do!

Minnow drew a crowd too with his amazing painting skills……but really…..I stole the show!

“Super Ammo” knows how to make everyone laugh.

Even when you have technical difficulties with your stunt helmet.

In fact, I got so much love after my performances that I think Minnow was jealous!

All that excitement really wears a boy out!

When I got back to the farm I took a well deserved nap. Which actually ended up being pretty short lived…

Because Trooper was just begging to be chased!

Ludwigs Day 1

I spent my Labor Day weekend hanging out with my good pal, Minnow the Painting Pony at the Ludwigs Corner Horse Show. Our Mission – to make all the BIG & LITTLE kids laugh and giggle.

I’m not gonna lie, Minnow did most of the work on the first day. Not that I didn’t help – I just used my skills in a different way.

I used my stunning good looks and overall cuteness to attract a crowd.

You see, I’m utterly irresistible when I wear my stunt helmet.

After I drew in the crowd it was up to Minnow to entertain everyone with his amazing painting skills and super awesome tricks. I jumped in here and there with some of my awesome stunts – but I really got into the swing of things on Day 2, which you’ll hear all about tomorrow!

You can check out some more photos of my adventure with Minnow on the Painting Pony Blog. And even if you weren’t able to visit us at our booth last weekend, you can still check out all of our awesome artwork in our SHOP.

Lovely Weekend

Super Ammo the Dachshund

Hope everyone’s enjoying their Labor Day Weekend! Me, I was planning on going canoeing today with my family, but it looks like the rain may have put a damper on my plans. But don’t worry, I’m sure I’ll be able to come up with a nice adventuresome alternative! And I’ll be back tomorrow with a WHOLE lot of pictures from my busy weekend performing at the Ludwig’s Corner Horse Show.

Here’s a sneak peek of me dishing out the love at the Horse Show.

But don’t worry, even if you can’t make the event – I always bring back lots of pictures and video! And don’t forget, I’ll be at the Chadds Ford Dog Days of Summer II event next weekend! Yeah!

 

The Dog Days of Summer

I have some exciting news! Next month I’m going to be making some very special public appearances. First up I will be at the Ludwigs Corner Horse Show on September 3rd – 4th with my best pal Minnow the Painting Pony. We’re going to be parked out at my booth all day where we will have artwork for sale (by both me and the pony!) and we’ll be showing everyone some of our favorite tricks all day long. We also might be performing some of our acts in the main arena – when I have more details I will let everyone know! And as always the Ludwigs Corner Horse Show is a dog friendly event – so bring along all of your furry friends!

Also I will be at the Chadds Ford Historical Society Dog Days of Summer Event. The event is on September 10th -11th from 10am – 5pm – and the best part is….it’s a DOG FRIENDLY event too!

I’m going to have a booth set up where I’ll be selling some of my great artwork along with the Painting Ponies’ artwork too. Minnow the Painting Pony might also be in attendance – but we have to wait and see if they can make room for him (he is kinda hefty! hehe).
