A Visit from the Horse Dentist

A visit with the Horse Dentist // Ammo the Dachshund

This week on the farm the horses were due for their dental check-up. Trooper and I of course were on hand for moral support.

Because who in their right mind likes to go to the dentist? Especially when you have to wear this type of contraption on your face!

Trooper always tries to be Mr. Helper, offering to hold supplies – mostly towels. That dog has an unhealthy obsession with towels if you ask me! I didn’t have the heart to tell him that they aren’t necessary tools for a dental exam.

I on the other hand just like to wait and see if there are any loose pony teeth, because I hear the tooth fairy will shell out double for horse teeth!

One thing can always be certain after a visit from the horse dentist though…..

….Trooper and I will be sure to brush our teeth extra well to avoid having to visit the dentist ourselves! Those tools look scary! Ammo the Dachshund

Friday Fetch: The Doggie Bag

The other day mom visited Petco without me. I know the horror! But at least she didn’t come back empty handed. And even though she didn’t buy me EVERYTHING I wanted, she did come back with the scoop on some new dog-gone great dog toys.

One of those items is The Doggie Bag. A new product from Hyper Pet. It’s a wiggling, barking, bag of fun! Their website boasts that it’s the perfect toy for hyper dogs.

Hyper or not, their fun promo video (see below) made me want to give it a try myself! The fact that it had a couple of cute little long haired Dachshunds in it may have helped a little too. So maybe if I promise to be really good next time mom’s at petco she’ll pick me up a doggie bag.

You can fetch The Doggie Bag at Petco (selection may vary at different stores) and on Amazon for $17.

I love Ponies

Like I REALLY REALLY REALLY love ponies! I mean come on, what’s not to love?

I think it’s those fuzzy, warm pony noses. It’s just totally unfair that dogs have to have cold, wet, puppy noses. Makes us have to rely on the “puppy dog” eyes that much more to get what we want.

Well whatever it is that makes me love those ponies, this is what I look like when I get to see my favorite ponies….

If you can’t tell, I’m smiling.

Sometimes I wish I could be a pony. You know, so I could live with my pony friends.

I’d eat hay just like them.

Love you ponies! Kisses from your pal, Ammo.
