Birthday Goodies

Ammo's 6th Birthday // Ammo the Dachshund

As you know on Sunday I celebrated my 6th Birthday by attending the Yuengling Oktoberfest Dachshund Races. Well when I go home later that day I got to do my very favorite part of Birthdays…..opening my presents!

Ammo's 6th Birthday // Ammo the Dachshund

I’m such a lucky dog to have so many presents to open, some from my mom and dad and some from some very sweet businesses!

Ammo's 6th Birthday // Ammo the Dachshund

I’m pretty much an expert at unwrapping gifts……my skills even landed me in a google commercial a few christmases ago! Check out how fast I am at unwrapping my gifts in the video below.

Ammo's 6th Birthday // Ammo the Dachshund

So just what did I score? Well mom and dad got me this handy Love Thy Beast Tote (that is plenty big enough for a 20lb dachshund like me), an Emergency First Aid Kit for the car, and this Indestructible Dog Toy (we’ll see how long it lasts with my choppers).

My friends at Mattie & Margot also sent me some spiffy new collars that are perfect for fall and my pals over at Chewy.com sent me a package of Grandma Lucy’s Organic Blueberry Treats.

Ammo's 6th Birthday // Ammo the Dachshund

Grandma Lucy’s Treats smelled delicious and even looked like cute little teddy grahams. Full disclosure here, my dad thought they smelled so good that he tried them himself – and considering the ingredients are human grade, and made with no By-Products, no artificial sweeteners, colors or flavors, I’m not surprised that he found them very tasty.

But sorry dad, I don’t plan on sharing – you’ll just have to snag your own from Chewy.com.

Ammo's 6th Birthday // Ammo the Dachshund

My new friends over at My Fabulous Puppy also sent me one of their handmade sweaters. It’s cute and snuggly and perfect for fall!

So thanks to everyone who made my Birthday extra special – I can’t believe I have to wait another whole YEAR before I can celebrate again!

Sunday Night Football Goes to the Dogs // Ammo the Dachshund

Sharing Cookies with Good Buddies

Chewy.com Good Buddy Peanut Butter Cookies // Ammo the Dachshund

When Chewy.com sent me some of their Good Buddy Peanut Butter Cookies recently I knew exactly what to do with them.

Chewy.com Good Buddy Peanut Butter Cookies // Ammo the Dachshund

Since I’m the nicest guy around I decided to share them with my own Good Buddy, Trooper!

Chewy.com Good Buddy Peanut Butter Cookies // Ammo the Dachshund

These made in the USA treats are packed with healthy ingredients, so I knew I was sharing something my best friend would love. (he’s a stickler for eating healthy)

Chewy.com Good Buddy Peanut Butter Cookies // Ammo the Dachshund

As you can see, Trooper was ecstatic when I told him he would get to help me eat these yummy Good Buddy treats.

Chewy.com Good Buddy Peanut Butter Cookies // Ammo the Dachshund

Chewy.com Good Buddy Peanut Butter Cookies // Ammo the Dachshund

Trooper and I scarfed our cookies so fast that we didn’t realize until after that our other pal Blitz the pony was feeling a bit left out on the cookie front.

Chewy.com Good Buddy Peanut Butter Cookies // Ammo the Dachshund

Since these Good Buddy treats are made from Whole Wheat Flour, Rolled Oats, Canola Oil, Peanut Butter, Whey Powder, Garlic Powder, Eggs, and Dried Kelp – mom said it would be fine if we wanted to share with Blitz the pony too.

Chewy.com Good Buddy Peanut Butter Cookies // Ammo the Dachshund

After tasting a bite, Blitz agreed that the Peanut Butter Good Buddy cookies are better left for the dogs.

Chewy.com Good Buddy Peanut Butter Cookies // Ammo the Dachshund

And I won’t lie, I’m a bit relieved, because the bag is starting to weigh a bit less!

Chewy.com Good Buddy Peanut Butter Cookies // Ammo the Dachshund

And I’m starting to get concerned that my buddies might need to go on a diet! Or at least find someone else’s cookies to share, because the rest are mine, all mine!

You can fetch your own Good Buddy Peanut Butter Cookies from Chewy.com for about $4. Ammo the Dachshund

 

The Eclectic Hound Martingale Review & Giveaway

Disclaimer : This is a sponsored post and giveaway brought to you by Eclectic Hound.

The Eclectic Hound Martingale Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

My new friends over at The Eclectic Hound sent me over this adorable martingale collar to take for a spin.

The Eclectic Hound Martingale Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Now Martingale Collars are all the rage right now, but did you know that they were originally designed for sight hounds, such as greyhounds and whippets, whose heads are smaller than their necks and can easily slip out of traditional buckle collars.

The Eclectic Hound Martingale Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

The same can be true for Dachshunds and more and more trainers recently have been recommending them for dogs of all breeds and sizes because of their safety.

The Eclectic Hound Martingale Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Designed to slip over your dog’s head, this collar from the Eclectic Hound should then be adjusted so you can fit 1 -2 fingers between the collar and your dog’s neck.

The Eclectic Hound Martingale Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

The martingale loop, which functions by gently tightening around the dog’s neck when pressure is applied to the leash, makes it so your dog can’t back out of the collar.

The Eclectic Hound Martingale Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

The Eclectic Hound Shop has so many fun collar designs it can be hard to decide which one to get (or get them all!), but ultimately I chose this preppy alligator design, because I’m pretty sure it makes me look extra tough. Or preppy I guess depending on how you look at it!

The Eclectic Hound Martingale Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

So if you’d like your dog to look preppy and tough at the same time too, you can save 15% off your next purchase at The Eclectic Hound with code AMMO15.

And now for the best part…..

The Eclectic Hound Martingale Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

ONE LUCKY WINNER will receive a COLLAR OF CHOICE from The Eclectic Hound! (winner can choose style (martingale or buckle), width, size and fabric pattern)

Hallway of Fun

Posted on by

I have one main hallway at my house. It has been dubbed the hallway of fun. See below:

My new Planet Dog Squeaky Toy Tennis Ball from Chewy.com has proven to be the perfect toy for the “hallway of fun”.

Dog Day at the Ballpark

Ammo the Dachshund's First Baseball Game

You guys, do you believe that I’m 5 years old and I have yet to ever go to a baseball game! Well all that changed last weekend…..because this dog went to the ballpark!

Ammo the Dachshund's First Baseball Game

Last Saturday the Wilmington Blue Rocks Stadium opened their stands to dogs of all shapes and sizes for the Dog Days of Summer – and I just couldn’t pass up the opportunity to check out my very first baseball game.

Ammo the Dachshund's First Baseball Game

It was a beautiful night at the ballpark, and I had heard rumors that they have peanuts and cracker jacks! I’m sure you can imagine my excitement.

Ammo the Dachshund's First Baseball Game

Mom and Dad bought me some pretty sweet seats to watch the game from – and of course I made sure to wear my fancy bow tie for the occasion.

Ammo the Dachshund's First Baseball Game

Before I knew it, the first batter was up!

Ammo the Dachshund's First Baseball Game

I was pretty enthralled with the game – at least after I got a chance to sniff all my neighbors properly.

Ammo the Dachshund's First Baseball Game

Since it was Dog Day at the park, many of my neighbors in the stands were of the 4 legged variety. Like these cute Basenji pups.

Ammo the Dachshund's First Baseball Game

I was quite intrigued when mom told me that they don’t really bark, instead they yodel! Unfortunately I didn’t hear any yodeling this day, so I’ll believe it when I hear it!

Ammo the Dachshund's First Baseball Game

I also spotted a few other dachshunds at the park.

Ammo the Dachshund's First Baseball Game

These girls kept checking out my bum every time I turned my back.

Ammo the Dachshund's First Baseball Game

I see you peekin!

Ammo the Dachshund's First Baseball Game

Of course the main reason I agreed to go to the ballpark….was to get a taste of a ballpark! Baseball hot dogs are the best after all!

Ammo the Dachshund's First Baseball Game

So after my very first Baseball Game I’ve decided that I’m officially a baseball fan. Although I did have to share my destain when I heard that dogs aren’t allowed in the ballpark all year round! Ammo the Dachshund

What the what!? How am I supposed to get my peanuts and cracker jacks?

Has your pup ever been to a baseball game?
