West Bradford Day

West Bradford Day

A few weeks ago my mom discovered a special event that was being held in my hometown. FREE pony rides and petting zoo is pretty much all you had to say to get my sister and I super excited!

West Bradford Day

First thing we did was head straight to the petting zoo. Unfortunately I had to wait outside, because apparently animals don’t like to be pet by other animals (weird right?).

West Bradford Day

While I waited patiently outside for my sister to get her fill of donkeys, ducks, chickens, goats, llamas, and more…I noticed this fluffy rock giving me the stink eye something fierce.

West Bradford Day

Yea, I’m pretty sure he wanted me dead. So needless to say I didn’t stick around too long to find out! (he must have been the black sheep of the bunch!)

Next we headed over to the pony rides. While waiting in line I started my own petting zoo. At least I don’t give the stink eye, which I’m pretty sure all the children greatly appreciated.

My favorite part though…..was the firefighter obstacle course. Seriously how cool is that! Only downside is that the fireman forgot to pack their dachshund sized fire fighting gear. Go figure.

West Bradford Day

At least I got to pose with the truck! I’m pretty sure I now want to be a firefighter when I grow up. (or at the very least master that obstacle course next year!!)

What do you think, would I make a good firefighter? Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity

Happy Easter from Ammo the Dachshund

Well, it’s almost that time of year again. A day when a giant bunny visits your home in the night and leaves you little chocolatey presents in a basket (that you aren’t even allowed to eat if you’re a dog), and you’re expected not to bite him, chase him, or do anything that you would normally do to a bunny should he come into your home.

Yea, I don’t really get it either.

But, in an effort to humor my mom, and make my little sister happy, I did something that goes against ALL of my instincts as a fierce hunting dog.

Easter Bunny Visit

I sat on the Easter Bunny’s lap at the mall.

Totally embarrassing!

Easter Bunny Visit

I didn’t bite him, but I was definitely not going to smile for my photo either! (Baby P was totally supporting me too and refused to smile as well!)

I hope you’re happy mom, because I’m pretty sure all the critters in my backyard are laughing their tails off!

Happy Easter Everyone! Have you ever taken your dog to visit the Easter Bunny? Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity

A Dog and His Girl

While it’s true that Baby P and I have already been on so many adventures together (I did after all take her on her very first 14 hour road trip), it wasn’t until fairly recently that she REALLY started taking an interest in me. Yes, she’s loved me from day 1, but now she actually plays with me!

A Dog And His Girl

I’m so excited to have a playmate, and I’m teaching her all of my favorite games (barking and tug of war mainly), just see for yourself:

I’m going to have to order her a super hero cape to match mine soon, because boy are we going to have lots of super things to do in our future together!

What do you think Baby P and I should do for our next adventure?Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity

10 Reasons Why Dachshunds Rule

It’s come to my attention that some of you may not know why us Dachshunds are so super cool. So incase you were unaware, I’ve made this handy list as to why Dachshund Rule The World.

Oh The Places You Sleep: Vol. 11 with Ammo the Dachshund

  1. You don’t ever have to worry about freezing to death if you live with a Dachshund

Personal heating pad. Check. If you’re chilly, just grab a Dachshund, because we can put out some serious heat!

Ammo the Dachshund // Evening Hunting on the Farm

2. If rodents ever took over the World, your Dachshund would save you.

Honestly, we don’t even need an excuse like total World domination to justify a good old fashioned hunt down.

3. Your Dachshund will teach you to have the patience of a saint.

Us Dachshunds have our own agenda, and if we want to do something (or don’t want to do something), you better believe we won’t be listening to your commands.

4. You won’t need to waste your money on a shovel when you have a Dachshund.

Born to dig, that’s our motto. Just think of all the money you saved by not buying all those shovels!

5. Your floors, and tables, and pretty much any surface we can reach will be spotless.

Smell food. Will eat…by any means necessary. Enough said.

6. You’ll have a reason to smile every day when you share your home with a Dachshund.

We’re goofy, and silly, and never run out of ways to do something just totally ridiculous that will make you smile.

7. Our unique body shape inspires all kinds of art.

Seriously, just try shopping at Target without finding something with a Dachshund on it. We’re that cool.

8. We have no idea that we’re small.

If you always wanted a big dog, look no further. We Dachshunds believe we’re the biggest dogs of them all, and despite our size, we have no problem striking fear into the hearts of all the big dogs out there.

9. We have a distinct smell all our own.

Ah, the aroma of a Dachshund. It will grow on you.

Holiday Tidings

10. We love our families something fierce.

Nothing can compare to the love that a Dachshund has for his family. And that my friends is why Dachshunds Rule!

Dog Squad on the Beach

Dog Squad on the Beach

There is one special adventure that always makes my heart skip a beat. It’s one of my favorite places ever, and when my family got to stay right on the BEACH during our Thanksgiving vacation I was so very excited!

Dog Squad on the Beach

But whats even more fantastic than a trip to the beach is sharing the adventure with my squad!

My cousins Sharkie & Scout (in the front) live in South Carolina, so they are total beach dog pros, and Trooper and I were super excited to spend a few days romping on the beach with them.

Dog Squad on the Beach

Things got a little wild, but that’s what beach days are all about!!

Scout and Sharkie know just how to get things fierce on the beach. But little did they know, so do Trooper and I….

That’s right, we may not live at the beach, but Trooper and I can certainly keep up with the rest of our squad!

After a day running on the beach, there is nothing more left to do but to take a dip in the ocean to cool off.

Dog Squad on the Beach

Being my feisty self, I couldn’t let my youngest cousin Scout show me up with her swimming skills. Even wiener dogs can swim too!

Dog Squad on the Beach

Nevermind, scratch that, way TOO COLD for this weiner dog! You’re on your own Scout!

Dog Squad on the Beach

All in all it was a fantastic few days with the ocean at my back. I already miss my favorite dog squad!

Can’t wait until we get to do it again!

All Up In It

All Up In It

Holy Cow. You’re never gonna guess what showed up on the farm the other day. My eyes caught sight of it, and I could just hardly contain my excitement. It was….

All Up In It

….a GIANT, fantastic, amazing pile of screenings!

All Up In It

Of course I wasted no time at all getting ALL UP IN IT, because there really is only one thing you can do when a big pile of screenings shows up at your doorstep….

All Up In It

…Conquer that mountain like nobody’s business.

Well and maybe dig a hole or two as well…

Tail Wagging Fun

Happy! Ammo the Dachshund

I’ve always been the type of dog that knows how to have fun. I can make a bad day into a good day with the flick of my tail and a toothy grin.

Tail Wagging Fun - Happiest Dog Ever

And sometimes it’s just an average day lounging on the couch, and you just can’t help but wag your tail and smile. It’s infectious…


So whether you’re having a bad day or not, just remember, keep that tail wagging and everything will be ok.

Dachshund Finds Way to Make Biggest Mess Ever

Over the weekend mom and dad decided to put together a new piece of furniture they purchased.

Ammo the Dachshund Finds a Way to Make the Biggest Mess Ever

Of course as you know, I’m never one to not help out when there is a project at hand. So while mom and dad were busy assembling furniture in the other room, I decided to help disassemble the empty boxes for them.

Mom and dad had a good laugh when I was done “helping”, although I’m not sure why.

And I still don’t understand why I was immediately plopped outside after my box destroying duties. Sometimes my skills just aren’t appreciated around here.

So make sure the next time you have a box destroying need you give me a shout! I’m happy to go where my expertise is appreciated! Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity
