The New Ruffwear Commuter Pack + A Giveaway

I bet you’re wondering what this fancy schmancy get-up I’ve got going on here is. Well my friends, it’s my new dog pack from my pals at Ruffwear!

The New Ruffwear Commuter Pack + A Giveaway

The Ruffwear Commuter pack is a rucksack for us dogs with a clean modern look. So it fits right in on the hiking trail or the urban commute.

It comes in sizes for all dogs and is easy to strap on so you can get out the door in a flash!

With lots of pockets for all your gear it’s the perfect way to give your dog a job no matter where you’re headed.

It’s important to remember not to overload your pack, and according to Cesar Milan 10 -12% of your dog’s weight is a good starting point. And remember all dogs are different and if you are unsure start by getting the okay from your vet.

Since us Dachshunds are prone to back issues my pack is always very light weight and balanced on both sides. Sometimes I even just carry it empty, because I still feel like I have an important job to do with it on!

I always dream of carrying around some delicious treats, because if you’re going to wear pockets on your back, then you might as well make sure they are stuffed with food!

In reality though, most of the time it’s filled with diapers and baby gear. Sigh.

The New Ruffwear Commuter Pack + A Giveaway

Even if my Commuter Pack is filled with baby stuff, I still look super business-like when I head through town to work. And no one even knows what I’ve got packed inside, and if they ask, I just tell them it’s important business things.

The New Ruffwear Commuter Pack + A Giveaway

The Ruffwear Commuter Pack comes in two colors, Cloudburst Gray (which I’m wearing) and Larkspur Purple.

As an added bonus, I feel like my new rucksack makes me look extra tough and strong. I’ve been telling all the ladies that I’m carrying 20lb weights in them (shhh! it’s our secret).

The New Ruffwear Commuter Pack + A Giveaway

And I even look sweet from behind!

So if you’re looking for a great way to make your dog feel important with a job to do, then you might want to check out the Commuter Pack from Ruffwear. As with all of their gear I can’t recommend it enough, and their products truly do hold up year after year.

The Emerson in Multi + Naval Stripe has a little less stretch in it than the Red + Gray hoodie I already own from Penn + Pooch so make sure you choose sizes accordingly when ordering this style.

Charlie Be Good is one of those dog accessory companies you can’t help but fall in love with. Their adorable handmade bow ties, dog duvet covers, collar, and leashes are so fun you’re going to want them all!

A few months ago I got to test out some Charlie Be Good products myself, and as you may remember I even took one of their striped bow ties with me when I vacationed in Charleston, South Carolina.

Road Trip with Ammo - Dog Friendly Downtown Charleston, South Carolina

My Charlie Be Good bow tie was the perfect thing to wear for my southern gentleman photoshoot, and when I strutted my stuff in downtown Charleston I got so many compliments! The great thing about these bow ties is that they velcro on to any collar you already own.

I also got to test out one of their tweed and turquoise duvet covers. I tossed the cover on a dog bed I already owned and immediately was in love.

Care 4 Dogs Snood Review & Giveaway - Hood for Dogs // Ammo the Dachshund

The winter in Pennsylvania this year has been pretty harsh, but thanks to my new friends at Care 4 Dogs I’m a little extra warmer in my new winter snood! (incase you didn’t know a snood is a tubular scarf that you wear around your neck kinda like a hood).

Care 4 Dogs Snood Review & Giveaway - Hood for Dogs // Ammo the Dachshund

My new dark grey snood was custom made to fit my neck and head measurements (and can be custom made for any dog too). I’ve been enjoying wearing it over my ears this winter to keep them extra warm in the cold.

Or if your dog doesn’t like things over their ears you can also opt to just wear it around your neck for some extra warmth.

One end of the snood is a bit more fitted to it’s sure to stay nice and snug on my head – but not too snug that it isn’t easy to pull off.

Trendy Coats to Keep your Dachshund Warm

Disclaimer: This review is brought to you by Noodle and Friends.

If you have are owned by a dachshund then you know how hard it can be to find items to fit them. And even sometimes when you can find something that fits – it’s not always the most flattering of outfits. My friends, it doesn’t have to be so, because my pals at Noodle and Friends have just what you need.

Noodle and Friends makes functional and fashionable gear with little dachshund bodies in mind!

Trendy Coats to Keep your Dachshund Warm // Noodle & Friends // Ammo the Dachshund

Sweet Noodle (and her friends) sent me over some of their super cute coats to try, and boy were they just what I needed to keep me nice and toasty this winter season.

Trendy Coats to Keep your Dachshund Warm // Noodle & Friends // Ammo the Dachshund

This Red Blizzard Parka with Thinsulate is the ultimate in doxie warmth. It’s got a waterproof and windproof outer layer as well as an internal layer of Thinsulate insulation.

Trendy Coats to Keep your Dachshund Warm // Noodle & Friends // Ammo the Dachshund

One of the great things about these Noodle and Friends coats is that they are designed to completely cover and protect us dachshund’s sensitive underbellies. Nothing like running through the mud at the farm and keeping your tummy nice and dry!

Trendy Coats to Keep your Dachshund Warm // Noodle & Friends // Ammo the Dachshund

Speaking of the farm, I wasted no time in taking my new Blizzard Parka to the barn, mainly to show-off how stylish I looked to all my pony friends.

Mom says she likes the bright red color too, because now that it’s hunting season in Pennsylvania I have to make sure I stand out everywhere I go. (not that my dazzling good looks didn’t do that already).

Trendy Coats to Keep your Dachshund Warm // Noodle & Friends // Ammo the Dachshund

I can’t wait to test this baby out in the snow this winter!

Red Blizzard Parka with Thinsulate

Features:
– Dachshund-specific length
– Broad coverage of the dachshund chest area
– Adjustable quick and easy velcro closures to ensure perfect fit
– D-ring and storm-flap covered, finished harness hole for easy and fast lead attachment
– Waterproof and windproof 2-ply Taslan nylon exterior
– Semi-permeable waterproof-breathable membrane backing the Taslan absorbs and evaporates away any internal moisture
– 150 gram high-loft Thinsulate insulation layer
– Water-resistant microfleece lining
– Lined functional pockets with easy velcro closures
– Decorative buttons and topstitch finishing detail

I also took for a spin this Reversible Peacoat in navy blue. I felt like I was ready for the open seas (if I only had a ship) with this trendy jacket, the buttons even featured cute little anchors on them!

Trendy Coats to Keep your Dachshund Warm // Noodle & Friends // Ammo the Dachshund

This 100% wool peacoat was super warm as well, and I’ve been having fun wearing it to work since it’s a little dressy for the farm!

Trendy Coats to Keep your Dachshund Warm // Noodle & Friends // Ammo the Dachshund

One of my absolute favorite things about the Noodle and Friends coats is that they all have extra strong d-rings sewn into the jackets. You have no idea how nice it is to not have to put on a harness UNDER your coat. But should you choose, there is also a hole to hook a leash to your harness as well if you still want to wear one.

Trendy Coats to Keep your Dachshund Warm // Noodle & Friends // Ammo the Dachshund

Another fun feature is their coats include pockets that are actually functional. You can store extra dog bags, cookies, or if you are super cool like me……you can carry around your own business cards.

The Noodle and Friends Peacoat is also reversible, so you can get two looks for the price of one!

Peacoat – Reversible

Features:
– Dachshund-perfect length
– Broad coverage of the dachshund chest area
– Adjustable quick and easy velcro closures to ensure perfect fit
– Two-coats-in-one reversible design
– D-ring and finished harness hole for easy and fast lead attachment
– Warm 100% wool exterior
– Water-resistant microfleece lining
– Lined functional pockets with easy velcro closures
– Decorative buttons and topstitch finishing detail

Trendy Coats to Keep your Dachshund Warm // Noodle & Friends // Ammo the Dachshund

Noodle also sent me a fun little squeaky toy, which I had a blast annoying mom and dad with. BEST DAY EVER. 🙂

The only thing extra I wish these coats had was a label sewn into the coat with washing instructions (although they do come with instructions in the packaging) – mostly because my mom is super forgetful and tends to ruin clothing when she throws all my stinky barn wear into the wash. So make sure you mind the washing instructions for these coats, as some of them may need to be hand washed!

So if you’re looking for something extra special to keep your dachshunds warm in this winter, make sure you check out Noodle and Friends. Their coats come in a variety of sizes (I am wearing size medium, and I weigh about 17 lbs), and are lovingly made in the USA.

Which coat is your favorite?
