Friday Fetch: Luxury Dog Beds from Charley Chau

The Charley Chau online shop totally had me at “Snuggle Bed”. Seriously, what’s not to love about a faux fur lined dog bed that you can snuggle in? Not only that, but they also make luxury dog beds in other styles too!

Oh The Places You Sleep: Vol. 1

Dogs tend to sleep between 12 – 14 hours a day, and considering that makes up the majority of our day, we sometimes have to get a little creative with our napping spots. It could get quite boring if you slept the same way hour after hour, so I like to vary it up a little each time. So here’s a collection of some of my favorite ways to take a nap throughout the day!

Afternoon Nap

Afternoon Nap // Ammo the Dachshund

Sometimes I like to find a nice sunny spot to dose in for an enjoyable afternoon nap.

Afternoon naps are simply the best, but as I slowly begin to awake….

…I come face to face with the lens of a camera!

Frankly it’s a bit creepy!

My Favorite Spot

My Favorite Spot // Ammo the Dachshund

I bet you have that one favorite spot in your house. The spot where the couch dips in just right and the sun warms your back and you could just nap there for hours. Yeah, I have that spot at my house too.

All that’s missing is someone to hand feed me cookies and massage my back.

Throwback Thursday: Napping Buddies

It’s been a little while since I’ve done a Throwback Thursday on the blog, so I thought it would be fun to take a trip down memory lane today!

Throwback Thursday: Napping Buddies // Ammo the Dachshund

Back when I was just a wee pup my pal Trooper used to come to the shop to “babysit” me everyday. While I did get in my fair share of puppy antics, Trooper and I also did a whole lot of napping together……

Kentucky Bluebird Kennel Bed Review & Giveaway

Disclaimer: This review and giveaway is brought to you by Kentucky Bluebird.

Did you ever just want to curl up and take a nap on the fluffiest, softest thing you can find? Well thanks to my pals at Kentucky Bluebird, your search for the fluffiest napping spot is over!

Kentucky Blue Birds Kennel Bed Product Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Kentucky Bluebird kindly sent me over one of their 100% certified organic canvas dog beds to take for a spin, and let me tell you, this thing is like napping on a cloud! The insides of these beds are stuffed with recycled polyester fill, and are securely stitched into place – so even the most powerful diggers (ahem, me) can’t tear them apart.

I was sent a 28″ x 18″ bed in fern green, but these beds come in lots of sizes and 9 different colors, and can even be custom made to any size you need.

My Kentucky Bluebird bed fit perfectly into a dog kennel that I already owned.

Don’t have a kennel? These can just as easily be used as dog bed in any room, and I even think it would be great to travel with as it’s just big enough for me to curl up on but not too big to take up a ton of space.

As you can see it’s 6″ of fluff was so comfortable that I had trouble even keeping my eyes open long enough for mom to take pictures.

Mom even caught me napping in my crate several times over the past few weeks with this fluffy bed. And if you know me, you know this is VERY RARE, because I don’t particularly love being in crates.

Friday Fetch: The Original Toasty Pet Bed

I stumbled across The Original Toasty Pet Bed from The Toasty Pet Company on Etsy and I couldn’t help but think how utterly unique (and cute) it was!

The Toasty Pet Bed is made of durable and cozy sherpa fabric and the back and sides are hard-wearing fabric. The filling is a very durable solid foam that can be removed. It’s great for small and medium-sized dogs (and all-sized cats).

Adventure Awaits

Adventure Awaits // Ammo the Dachshund

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

Adventure Awaits // Ammo the Dachshund

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.

Adventure Awaits // Ammo the Dachshund

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!

Adventure Awaits // Ammo the Dachshund

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

Adventure Awaits // Ammo the Dachshund

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

Adventure Awaits // Ammo the Dachshund

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

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

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.

Nose Art by Ammo the Dachshund

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

Nose Art by Ammo the Dachshund

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.
