Burn Pile

Lately the burn pile on the farm has been getting bigger and bigger.

Mom says it’s in preparation for Trooper’s new house on the farm, and knocking down some trees is necessary to make room.

I’m not sure when the detonation of the burn pile will take place, but I figure one can never be too careful when it comes to fire safety. So I’ve been practicing what to do when the pile goes up in flames.

Fire in the Hole!

Stop, drop, and roll. Stop, drop, and roll!

Hay is for Horses

ammo the dachshund hay is for horses

During the winter months, the ponies require hay – since there isn’t really any grass for them to eat.

I’m all for giving my ponies what they want…..but they sure do eat a lot.

Just look how much hay I had to throw down from the loft the other day!

But, when I see Boomerang’s smiling face…..

Friday Fetch: Pet Dental Health

ammo the dachshund pet dental health monthYesterday I shared how it was my new goal to start brushing my teeth every night before bed since February is Pet Dental Health Month.

So after a visit to Petco last week, I rounded up some of my favorite items to get you started in keeping your own pet’s choppers extra sparkly!

My Pearly Whites

Since February is Pet Dental Health Month I decided that I really should be brushing my teeth regularly. Up until now, it wasn’t really a regular thing for me – although I did chew on lots of those dental sticks, and occasionally break out the tooth brush.

So my new goal is to brush my teeth every night before bed.

It may not be my “favorite” thing to do….

…but it helps that Mom got me special doggie toothpaste that is oh-so-yummy!

And just look at my sparkling smile now! So Shiny!

Tomorrow I’ll share some neat pet products to help keep your pooches’ teeth extra clean!

The Goods

Yesterday was Valentine’s Day. Which means that not only did I get to hang out with my Valentine, but I also got some goodies from my Mom & Dad – because they love me so much!

I made out pretty good this year! Mom made me some no-bake healthy treats from a recipe on Pretty Fluffy. Yum Yum.

And then I got some new dog toys from Planet Dog. These toys are my absolute favorite! So far they are pretty indestructible (which mom likes – but I’m determined to prove her wrong), and they have a minty flavor that’s oh-so-tasty. I could play fetch with my new toys for hours!

Happy Valentine’s Day to me!

So what about you, did your furry friends get lots of V-day goodies? Extra snuggles? (those are the best).

Sending lots of love your way, xoxo

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!

Guess what! I looked so dashing yesterday that I got a date to the Valentine’s Day Dance. Meet Amira…

Isn’t she purdy?

Amira likes all the same things I do…..hunting, digging holes, and eating cookies.

We’re a match made in heaven! Amira & Ammo…..I just hope she owns a pink Super Hero Cape!

Don’t worry though, there’s always room in my heart for all my fans on Valentine’s Day. Hugs, 

Pre-Valentines Day

Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day, which means I’m testing out my outfit for the Valentine’s Day Dance.

Footprints in the Snow

ammo the dachshund in the snow

Last night when I was at the the farm it snowed! Being the adventuresome type that I am, I went off to do some exploring while the white stuff was falling from the sky.

ammo the dachshund in the snow

Spider (of course) took it upon herself to follow me on my adventure, and never one to be out-done, Spider did a little showing off. (don’t tell her but I was slightly impressed with her tight-rope walking skills)

ammo the dachshund in the snow

And as if she hadn’t already showed me up enough, then she took it upon herself to write her name in the snow.

ammo the dachshund in the snow

I can’t read “kitty”, but I’m pretty sure that it says “Spider Rules and Ammo Drools”.

ammo the dachshund in the snow

Little did she know though, but I also know how to write my name in the snow!

ammo the dachshund in the snow

And for those of you who can’t read “dog” it says, “Dear Spider, while you were out I ate all of your  kitty food and left some yellow snow on your pillow. xoxo Ammo”.

I am Dog, Hear Me Roar Bark! hehe.

 

Morning Ritual

You might remember that I told you all last month that I’m really not much of a morning dog. I drag my feet to get out of bed, and most of the time Mom has to make me go outside for my morning potty break before work.

So today I thought I’d show what actually happens when my feet hit the floor.

ammo the dachshund morning routine

Once I’m finally up and at-em I’m ready to get down to business.

Sprinting out the door I gotta make sure there is no unwanted critters hiding in my yard. They tend to like to sneak in overnight.

Today I got to scare a bird off – it was quite exciting.

Then it’s time for my morning shake, before I take a lap around the yard to check for more intruders.

ammo the dachshund morning routine

Only today Mom is taking pictures of me. My plans have changed.

It’s back inside to stare at my cookie jar, because…..

.. “Mom I came inside all by myself and you didn’t even have to call me, I’m pretty sure I deserve cookies for that.”
