Adventure Awaits

Adventure Awaits // Ammo the Dachshund

Every once in a rare while I get to spend the day at home just relaxing.

Dog stereotypes would state that I should relish in the fact that I get to nap all day long, but for me that’s just way too boring.

How can you relax when there are adventures to be had; there’s groundhogs to hunt, agility courses to run, people to wag your tail at, and cookies to eat!

Although thinking about all those adventures is making me a little sleepy.

Yawn! I guess those adventures will still be there tomorrow…

I think I’ll just rest my eyes a bit. Don’t worry though, because adventure always awaits just around the corner!

Take Your Dog to Work Day

Posted on June 24, 2013 by Ammo

This past Friday was Take Your Dog to Work Day, but for me it was no different than any other day, because I work most days with my mom in her custom frame shop.

But, I decided to play the part anyway and instead of my usual sunbathing by the front door I threw on my glasses and helped mom with the picture framing.

Choosing picture frames is no easy task, but it’s a good thing I have a great eye for design!

I picked out some colorful mouldings that would look super awesome on one of my Dream Big Prints.

I must admit, I worked pretty darn hard and I’m pretty sure I should get a raise. Please add 4 more cookies to my daily wages mom!

When it starts to get hot outside I start to do a lot more of this…..

Ahhh, summertime….

Today I’m going under cover. Sometimes a dog just needs a little getaway.

Snuggled up in my favorite blankie – I’m relaxing today. No big adventures, no time for hunting bunnies in the backyard – just a day to catch up on my sleep!

ZzZzzzzzzz.

Nose Art

I may have talented paws (check out my original paintings HERE), but did you also know I have a talented nose? Oh yes, I’ve been working on my original “nose art” (seen above) for quite some time now.

It takes patience and some long long naps on the couch to perfect my technique – and the occasional bunny outside helps a bit too.

I’ve been working on this masterpiece for a couple of months now, and while it’s looking quite swell I know there is still more to add.

After all you can’t rush genius!

A Day of Rest

Posted on April 22, 2013 by Ammo

After my big excursion yesterday to the Spring Doxie Fest in Maryland, I decided to spend today resting. I probably look like this:

Well at least for a little while. I can’t miss agility class this afternoon!

Ammo practices Dog Agility on his DIY Agility Jumps 2012

Why rest when there are so many adventures to go on! And have no fear, if you weren’t able to make it to the Spring Doxie Fest this year, I’ll be back tomorrow with a full recap!

Working Hard

Working Hard….or Hardly Working. What do you think?

My idea of work might be a bit fuzzy, but I’m pretty sure no one’s complaining!

Did you ever find that perfect sunny spot in the house? You know the one, it’s warm and soft, and makes you just want to snuggle up and close your eyes.
