Winter Storm Jonas on the Farm

Winter Storm Jonas on the Farm with Ammo the Dachshund

My fun day in the snow after winter storm Jonas last weekend didn’t end after I helped my dad dig us out, because my ponies on the farm needed to be cared for too!

So Trooper and I bundled up and got ready to help with all the farm chores!

Once all my ponies were fed, and the stalls were mucked, it was time to have a little fun.

And just like that we were off! (bet you can’t even spot me way up ahead of Trooper…he can never catch me!)

Boomerang is always our first stop, because he’s ALWAYS up for a good time in the snow.

His toothy grin pretty much says it all, and I’m pretty sure he wishes it was a snow day everyday.

Yup, Boomer definitely knows how to have a good time in the snow!

Two can play at that game Boomer! Because I know how to have a good time in the snow too!

Even my pal Minnow wanted to get in on the action.

Trooper did pretty well keeping up with Minnow despite the deep snow…

….I of course tried my little heart out to keep up too, but lets face it, 26+ inches of snow is not exactly friendly to us short dogs. #shortdogproblems

So I relegated myself to the spectators side of the fence to get a better view of the pony show.

And my pal Minnow did not disappoint! He put on a grand show for me in the snow.

Overall it was a perfect snow day on the farm with my ponies. I can’t wait to do it again soon! Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity

Trooper and I love a good snow day.

There is just something so fun about running around in all that white stuff – wind in your ears, best friend by your side.

Adventures in the Snow with Barkbox // Ammo the Dachshund

Truth be told though, as much as I love romping in the snow with my best friend, things can sometimes get a bit chilly (no matter how many winter coats I have on).

But, the quickest way to cure the winter-time chills is to find a good scent to keep you distracted from your freezing behind!

2014 Blizzard with Ammo the Dachshund

Last Thursday when I awoke there was a whole lot of snow outside my door. As in 15+ inches of fluffy white stuff!

Of course the first thing I did was pile on my jackets and head outdoors to catch some snowflakes!

Running like a crazy dog through the snow was totally worth being chilly for just a few minutes. So fun in fact, that I headed out to the farm for some more winter adventures with my ponies!

Despite the inches upon inches of snow we received (and keep continuing to receive), I just can’t get on board with “snow bashing”. It might be cold and wet, difficult for mom and dad to shovel, and somewhat of a hazard – but when else do you get to make memories like these? Snowday fun is just the kind of adventures I needed this winter!

How about you, do you enjoy snow day adventures as much as me?

12 Days of Cheer! Snow Day with Ammo the Dachshund

Last week we got not one but two snowstorms in Pennsylvania! Did you know that I absolutely love snow?

It might be cold and wet, but nothing beats plowing your way through the white fluffy stuff.

I wore my Noodle & Friends coat, my sparkly holiday collar from Mattie & Margot (for holiday cheer purposes), and I even slapped on a pair of Pawz booties mom had found at goodwill for me to test them out in the snow.

The Pawz boots may not have really kept my feet any warmer, but they did keep out any snow or salt. Plus they just looked cute because they matched my jacket!

And as you can see they didn’t slow me down any in the snow!

Snowday with the Ponies

On Friday I got to leave work early on account of the snow that made it’s way to Pennsylvania.

Of course a little bit of snow never stops me from having an adventure, so I bundled up in my jackets and decided to have some fun on the farm. Did you know that ponies like to have snowdays too?

2011 Snowstorm

On Thursday I woke up to 16 inches of fluffy white stuff!

I know….fabulous right?

Mom and Dad didn’t think it was so fabulous….especially since the snow blower broke! (and a couple of snow shovels in the process of digging out). But at least we all got a snow day!

I of course made the most of my snow day.

What’s a snow day without a couple of backyard tunnels anyway?

Snow Day

I have more to tell you about my exciting Christmas, but I thought I’d interrupt for a little snow day! Santa must have known how much I love the snow, because he ordered up a snowstorm for the day after Christmas! Yipee!

What made it even better was that I got to share my snow day with the ponies at the farm.

Here’s a picture of me on the way to the farm. If you can’t tell I’m uber excited!

I got to help with all kinds of chores around the farm, like bringing hay out to the ponies.

And I got to have a little fun too. Nothing like a good romp in the snow!

Ah, it was a great day to be a dog!
