Scrub-A-Dub-Dub, Weenie in a Tub

Scrub-A-Dub-Dub, Weenie in a Tub // Ammo the Dachshund

When you spend a lot of your time on a horse farm it’s inevitable that you’ll find yourself in the tub more often than not.

Bath time rituals become pretty common for me as I’m used to hearing things around the house like “what’s that smell?”, “what did you roll in this time?”, or my favorite “The smell is horrible!”.

While my patented weenie stench is not something all members of my household enjoy (what do you mean you don’t like the smell of soggy worms and horse poop?), I can say that sometimes I do enjoy the benefits of a good bath.

Not only does my after bath aroma warrant extra cuddles and the praises of “you’re so soft” and “you smell like sunshine”, but…

….I find that afterwards my pleading eyes for more cookies mom, are almost always met with – “of course you can have another cookie, because you’re so clean and sweet!”

Guess I’ll just have to start stinking up the place a little more often if I want those after bath cookies!

What’s the worst thing your dog has ever rolled in?

I thought it was just too hilarious not to share (although I secretly did wish it was real). If you click on an of the “learn more” buttons at the bottom of their page you can see their little ruse!

Happy April Fools Day! Did I fool you?

Throwback Thursday: Spring Mud

Posted on March 20, 2014 by Ammo

With today being the official first day of Spring I thought it would be appropriate to share a throwback video of me getting as dirty as possible on the farm. You know, in honor of all the springtime mud thats here!

It’s not Spring unless you get dirty!

What kind of dirt does your dog track in this time of year?

Weekend Smiles

Muddy Ponies // Ammo the Dachshund

Over the weekend I visited my ponies on the farm. It was muddy and wet and oh so much fun!

I even had a little fun digging for critters!

What kind of fun did you have this weekend?

My Personal Puddle

Posted on July 2, 2013 by Ammo

My Personal Puddle // Ammo the Dachshund

It’s been raining in Pennsylvania A LOT, like as in thunderstorms most nights and sometimes all day long. But it’s also been hot hot hot. So while I hate that the rain sometimes puts a damper on my plans, I’m loving that it’s created a personal puddle on the farm just for me to cool off in.

My Personal Puddle // Ammo the Dachshund

It may not be crystal clear waters, but it’s the perfect place to cool off, and maybe fetch a few sticks in too.

My Personal Puddle // Ammo the Dachshund

With just a couple more inches of rain I’d have to slap on my life vest and call it my own personal swimming puddle.

My Personal Puddle // Ammo the Dachshund

If anyone needs me I’ll be dipping my paws into my personal puddle, and dreaming I’m at the beach chasing crabs out to sea! Keep cool friends!

Stink Happens

Posted on May 30, 2013 by Ammo

As some of my facebook fans may have already seen, I had a glorious time over the weekend, and it looked a little something like this:

Stink Happens // Dirty Dog // Ammo the Dachshund

Oh yes, it was the perfect combination of horse poop, mud, dead animal, and wet!

Stink Happens // Dirty Dog // Ammo the Dachshund

I was basking in the glow of my dirtiness, and so excited to show mom and dad, that is until the word BATH was mentioned!

Stink Happens // Dirty Dog // Ammo the Dachshund

“But mom, it’s the perfectly pungent summertime aroma – I know, because I smelled it”.

Stink Happens // Dirty Dog // Ammo the Dachshund

My pleas were unheard as I found myself in the ponies’ wash stall – it was utter disappointment.

Stink Happens // Dirty Dog // Ammo the Dachshund

When it was all over I smelled like roses and sunshine……it was HORRIBLE! Oh well, live to stink another day!

If you Dig, I will Come

Posted on August 16, 2012 by Ammo

Trooper’s new house on the farm has officially been started, and the digging of the foundation is my favoritest part!

Reminds me of how much fun I had on the farm when the barn was being built a few years ago.

Ammo the Dachshund - 2009 - on the farm

Apparently you’re never too old to play in the mud!

Although, this time I hope the story ends a little better for me than it did when I was a pup.

Dirt, Tunnels, and Spring-time Baths

Posted on April 19, 2012 by Ammo

Sometimes I’m completely perplexed as to how I land myself in the bathtub at the end of the day. However, this was not one of those times.

ammo the dachshund on the farm

See last week the ponies had a new “obstacle” set up in the arena that I just couldn’t keep my paws off of.

It’s enticing “dirtiness” and tunneling capabilities were just calling my name.

And when Boomerang pointed out that I had a little something on my face – I knew my trip to the bathtub was inevitable.

Sigh. At least smelling like sunshine again isn’t all that bad.
