Goats that Race

Posted on May 15, 2017 by Ammo

Goats that Race

Last weekend I grabbed my rain coat, hopped on a bus and headed off on another adventure to the Slyfox Goat Races!

Goats that Race

It was crowded, wet and muddy…

Goats that Race

…and the closest I got to actually seeing the goats race was to pose in front of one for a selfie. Yea, not super ideal.

Goats that Race

…but, I got to bring along my sister for her very first time at the goat races.

Goats that Race

She got wet, and had to eat her snack in the rain…..

Goats that Race

…but seeing her squeal and smile when she got to meet some of her favorite animals made it totally worth it!

Goats that Race

And we both agreed, the “mascot” had nothing on the real goat racers. Baby P and I were less than impressed.

I mean, just look at those REAL goats run! Impressive!

Goats that Race

So yea, rain may have put a damper on the fun, but it was still a fantastic memory to share with my family.

Goats that Race

And don’t worry, when I got chilly, Baby P even shared her raincoat with me.

Goats that Race

Here’s to hoping next year’s races are a little less damp….because Baby P and I are already begging mom and dad for a goat of our own. My pony Minnow already promised he’d help look after it on the farm. Pppppplllllease!

One of my favorite things at the goat races is listening to the names of all the goats announced over the loudspeakers. My favorite one this year was Baahhhbara. If Baby P and I ever do get that goat we want, what do you think we should name it?

New Vegetable Garden

Posted on June 3, 2016 by Ammo

Ammo the Dachshund's Vegetable Garden

Every year I like to plant a vegetable garden. After last year’s winter my usual veggie spot was looking a bit sad. Nothing a little gardening re-model couldn’t fix though!

Ammo the Dachshund's Vegetable Garden

My handy Dad got to work right away with a new plan so mom and I don’t have to pull weeds anymore…woohoo! Mom of course had to sit this one out, since apparently heavy lifting is frowned upon when you’re growing a baby.

Ammo the Dachshund's Vegetable Garden

Eventually (thanks to dad’s hard work) my new garden boxes started to take shape and it was time to get the dirt! (my favorite part)

Ammo the Dachshund's Vegetable Garden

I tagged along to help mom and dad pick up garden soil so my plants could grow big and strong.

Ammo the Dachshund's Vegetable Garden

While dad shoveled all the dirt into the garden boxes I stood guard to make sure no critters got in the way of our hard work. It’s pretty much a full time job.

Ammo the Dachshund's Vegetable Garden

The soil went in and I could hardly wait to get my plants into the ground. I’ve been saving bits of kibble all year to plant my kibble tree!

Ammo the Dachshund's Vegetable Garden

With soil in the boxes the garden was looking mostly finished….now it was time to plant!

Ammo the Dachshund's Vegetable Garden

After mom picked up some plant starts at the store I helped put everything into the boxes. Now all we have to do is wait for them to grow big and strong, and keep the critters from eating them! Don’t worry though, I know just the dog for the job!

Does your dog involve themselves in your home projects like I do?

My New Adventure as a Big Brother

Posted on May 27, 2016 by Ammo

Ammo the Dachshund Celebrates Becoming a Big Brother

Over the weekend mom and I arrived at the farm to find a celebration! Mom said it was a baby shower for my soon-to-be little sister, although the way I saw it was a celebration of me becoming a big brother!

Ammo the Dachshund Celebrates Becoming a Big Brother

It was the perfect combination of ponies….

Ammo the Dachshund Celebrates Becoming a Big Brother

….and food! (My favorite).

Ammo the Dachshund Celebrates Becoming a Big Brother

Of course it wouldn’t have been a celebration if I didn’t break of my bowtie! The brother-to-be always has to look his best.

Ammo the Dachshund Celebrates Becoming a Big Brother

Even though my buddy Minnow was just outside in the pasture, we certainly had to include him in the festivities too. So he was inside in spirit for a pin-the-baby-on-the-pony game.

Ammo the Dachshund Celebrates Becoming a Big Brother

Eventually it was time for my favorite part of the day! Opening presents!

Ammo the Dachshund Celebrates Becoming a Big Brother

I’m an expert at gift unwrapping and I was super excited to see what all my friends and family brought to celebrate my “becoming a big brother”.

Ammo the Dachshund Celebrates Becoming a Big Brother

There were lots of sweet dachshund (and pony) related gifts that were opened but I was starting to realize why mom said it was a “baby shower”.

Ammo the Dachshund Celebrates Becoming a Big Brother

Eventually Trooper and I started to loose interest in the baby gear so I decided to checkout what fun games there might be for me to play instead.

Ammo the Dachshund Celebrates Becoming a Big Brother

I was in luck, because not only was there was a stinky inspired game just for me, but it also included candy bars in a “guess which candy bar/dirty diaper game”. I may or may not have gotten in big trouble for trying to steal one of them! 😉

Ammo the Dachshund Celebrates Becoming a Big Brother

I sulked for a bit about not being involved as much as I would have liked in this “baby shower”, but mom told me not to worry…

Ammo the Dachshund Celebrates Becoming a Big Brother

…for she says soon I’ll have to test all the baby gear for my sister before she comes. And something tells me mom and dad will be practicing carrying me around in this baby carrier pretty soon!

Ammo the Dachshund Celebrates Becoming a Big Brother

After the shower I helped gift all our special friends these cute little horse shoes to show how much I appreciated them coming to celebrate my little sister.

Ammo the Dachshund Celebrates Becoming a Big Brother

Mom, Dad, Minnow, Me and Boomerang (who just happened to be in another pasture for this picture) are super excited for my little sister to get here! I can’t wait to show her where all the groundhog holes are on the farm, she’s going to love it!

Do you include your dog in family gatherings and parties?

When Your Dog Helps With Gardening

Posted on May 14, 2015 by Ammo

I have a secret to tell you about my parents. Something that not everyone knows……they have GREEN THUMBS!

Gardening with Ammo the Dachshund

And apparently not the good kind of green thumbs…because they’re experts at growing weeds! Yes, it’s true. My landscaping at home was looking a little sad. But don’t worry, this year I whipped my parents into shape and helped them add a little curb appeal to our home.

Gardening with Ammo the Dachshund

It was no easy task though, and took a lot of effort on my part – including trips to Lowes.

Gardening with Ammo the Dachshund

Many, many trips to Lowes!

And trips to Terrain for inspiration.

Trips to the garden center for plants.

And then the hard work really began. In case you’re wondering, yes I did actually work…

But after all that hard work, my yard was looking a bit more presentable.

Gardening with Ammo the Dachshund

So presentable in fact that I’m sure all the neighbor dogs are just lined up waiting to “mark it”.

Gardening with Ammo the Dachshund

I’ve got my eye on you neighbor dogs! I’ve got my E..Y..E.. on you.

Does your dog help with the gardening too?

A Dog’s Day at the Devon Horse Show

Posted on June 3, 2014 by Ammo

As per my yearly tradition I always hit up the Devon Horse Show at least once while is running. Devon is one of the oldest and largest outdoor multi-breed competitions in the United States today, and as a bonus it’s VERY dog friendly!

A Dog's Day at the Devon Horse Show // Ammo the Dachshund

So last week on Memorial Day I decided to take a trip to Devon, where the who’s who of dogs (and horses) always are!

A Dog's Day at the Devon Horse Show // Ammo the Dachshund

The shopping is always upscale and unique (if not always a little out of my budget), but as a dog it’s fun to actually take a tour around shops like Anthropologie!

A Dog's Day at the Devon Horse Show // Ammo the Dachshund

I even happened across this fine dining set just for dogs from the Furnished Paw. I’m pretty sure I’d have to own a tux to dine like this.

My Busy Memorial Day Weekend // Ammo the Dachshund

While the shopping left me wishing my income was a bit higher, what I really came for was to watch the horses! (dressed in my finest of course)

A Dog's Day at the Devon Horse Show // Ammo the Dachshund

While there are lots of exciting events to watch at Devon (and things even non-horse lovers can appreciate), mom and I always get a kick out of watching the exhibitions. This year we made sure to attend so that we could watch the carriage racing and shetland pony races.

A Dog's Day at the Devon Horse Show // Ammo the Dachshund

So I staked out the best spot along the arena and watched these two exciting events.

The cart racing was fun to watch, and it left me dreaming of one day having a tiny pony just my size so I could ride around on a cart too! Wouldn’t that be fun!

The Shetland Pony Racing was my favorite though. And don’t worry, no kids were injured!

A Dog's Day at the Devon Horse Show // Ammo the Dachshund

It was a pretty hot day when I attended Devon, so between events I napped near the arena (and sipped on plenty of cool water).

My Busy Memorial Day Weekend // Ammo the Dachshund

After we were done watching the races I strolled the grounds, where I met lots of other friendly dogs.

I even checked out some of the (highly decorated) stables.

And of course right before we headed home mom and I had to stop for a lemon stick. Because if you go to Devon, you have to have a lemon stick! (It’s a rule)

How Does your Garden Grow?

Posted on May 29, 2014 by Ammo

I like to think I’m a pretty health conscious pup. I eat grain-free, exercise regularly, and I try to only snack on things that are good for me.

So imagine how thrilled I was when my monthly box of goodies from Barkbox popped up in mom’s garden! (I knew that magic horse poop was good for something!)

How Does your Garden Grow? May Barkbox // Ammo the Dachshund

This month’s Barkbox celebrates healthy (but still delicious) eating, inspired by the finds from your favorite farmer’s markets.

How Does your Garden Grow? May Barkbox // Ammo the Dachshund

Packed full of good-for-your-dog items this month’s box contained items that were organic, GMO-free and eco-friendly sourced toys.

How Does your Garden Grow? May Barkbox // Ammo the Dachshund

Mom says she never has to worry about checking the ingredients when my Barkbox arrives because their edible products do not include rawhide (or anything processed with formaldehyde), have minimal processing with no glycerin whenever possible, no wheat, gluten, soy, or corn, and are filler-free as well as organic whenever possible.

Not to mention all treats are sourced from the USA and Canada, and chews are sourced from the USA, Canada, South America, Australia and New Zealand.

How Does your Garden Grow? May Barkbox // Ammo the Dachshund

So with minimal watering, this month’s Barkbox popped up an eco-friendly carrot squeaky toy from P.L.A.Y., a Caitec ball toy that had a fun and innovative squeak (and has held up to my chompers thus far), Apple Cobbler organic and GMO-free cookies from Snicky Snacks, Plato Organic Chicken treats, and a Barkworthies 100% beef bully stick.

How Does your Garden Grow? May Barkbox // Ammo the Dachshund

Who knew eating healthy could be so yummy!

How Does your Garden Grow? May Barkbox // Ammo the Dachshund

Of course I went straight for the bully stick!

When Goats Run Races

Posted on May 7, 2014 by Ammo

When Goats Run Races // Ammo the Dachshund

On Sunday I attended the 2014 Sly Fox Goat Races – a first for me!

When Goats Run Races // Ammo the Dachshund

I hopped on the bus at the fairgrounds in the hopes of seeing some exciting racing!

When Goats Run Races // Ammo the Dachshund

The turnout to the event was much larger than I expected, especially since for the better part of the morning we were stuck under a raincloud.

When Goats Run Races // Ammo the Dachshund

I wasn’t going to let a little rain stop me from having a good time though, so I pulled up my hood and got ready for some fun!

When Goats Run Races // Ammo the Dachshund

First I hit up the food tent and ate some yummy Beerwurst, I’m drooling still thinking about it.

When Goats Run Races // Ammo the Dachshund

After my belly was full I decided to mingle and check out the goat racing competition.

When Goats Run Races // Ammo the Dachshund

Tension was high, as the goats argued amongst each other about who they thought would come out on top and have the honor of getting the ceremonial bock beer named after them.

When Goats Run Races // Ammo the Dachshund

I sniffed out all the competitors and secretly made my bets on who I thought would win.

When Goats Run Races // Ammo the Dachshund

I also made sure to keep looking over my shoulder, because I don’t trust anything with horns!

When Goats Run Races // Ammo the Dachshund

Not only did I meet goats at the races, but there were lots of dogs there too, like this big guy who had a go pro camera strapped to his back.

When Goats Run Races // Ammo the Dachshund

I also met this guy, Chase the mini Australian Shepherd. He reminded me of my best buddy Trooper, but much more my size!

When Goats Run Races // Ammo the Dachshund

While I bounced around the event I attracted quite a bit of attention from the children there (as well as the adults that couldn’t help but want to take my picture).

When Goats Run Races // Ammo the Dachshund

The kids were my favorite part though, because where there’s kids, there’s food!

When Goats Run Races // Ammo the Dachshund

Finally it was time for the goat races to start, or so I heard, because I couldn’t see anything on account of being so short! #shortdogproblems

When Goats Run Races // Ammo the Dachshund

Thankfully mom and dad helped me work my way to the front of the crowd so that I’d had a much better view.

When Goats Run Races // Ammo the Dachshund

And before I knew it the goats were off….well kinda. I’m not sure what I was expecting, maybe because I’m used to seeing and racing in the dachshund races – well goats aren’t quite as speedy!

It was quite comical to watch actually, and at the end of the day it was announced that the goat, Spartacus was the champion!

But in a major upset on monday it was re-announced that the new winner was Jixxer after a photo surfaced of his leg crossing the finish line ahead of Spartacus. So much drama at the goat races! I guess better luck next year Spartacus!

P.S. I hear the champion Jixxer is up for adoption! Maybe next year I’ll have my own goat to enter, as the ponies on the farm have been asking for a goat buddy for a long time now!
