Adventures in Petco

Adventures in Petco

Back in September I went on a very important adventure with my sister that I forgot to share. How could I forget? We went to Petco!

Adventures in Petco

It’s arguably one of the most important trips in a young baby’s life. I mean how else is she going to know where to shop for me?

While I was there I even got to pick out a FREE pound of cookies thanks to the Birthday club. I never say no to cookies. And lucky for me my sister doesn’t eat cookies, so I didn’t even have to share.

Adventures in Petco

Now sister, we are going to go through every square inch of this store while I explain to you which are the best treats & toys. It’s going to take a while, but be oh-so-worth it for your education. You can thank me when you’re older.

What do you think my sister will get me for Christmas?

P.S. If you’re wondering more about the food I’ve picked up at the store, read all about my favorite toys, treats, food & more on my gear page.Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol. 3

Every month my mom has been taking photos of my little sister as she grows. I was a bit jealous at first, but then I realized my daily life has been documented in photos and videos for the past 6 years on this blog….so maybe it’s time to share the camera.

That lasted oh….5 seconds…before I couldn’t stand to sit on the sidelines anymore. So every month I’ve been having my photo taken with my sister to document how much she grows. Here we are on Monday as she turned 3 months old…

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol. 3

Now it seems that a lot of my fans just can’t get enough of me and Baby P, so I’m going to be sharing our monthly photos with you from here on out. But since I missed the last few, here they are so you can see how much she’s grown…

And because we just can’t get enough snuggles in, here we are this month, doing what siblings do…

Music in the Park

Just a few days before my sister was born I attended one last event with my mom and dad as an only “fur child”.

Music in the Park with Ammo the Dachshund

This was the first time I went to my town’s Music in the Park event, and boy was I in for a treat.

See all the children at the event seemed to know that I was going to be a big brother soon, so they took it upon themselves to break me in.

P.S. How cool is this kid’s “Indiana Jones*” outfit, now that would make a cool Halloween costume! *affiliate link

Sticky faces and lots of love, I was pretty sure I could totally get used to this.

One last photo with my mom and dad before we became a family of 4. I had no idea how much better it was going to get.

Then before I knew it, my sister was here – and guess what – I got to take her to music in the park a few days later!

Here’s a short video of me attending the event before she was born, and then again when she could enjoy it too!

I’m thinking I might need to teach my sister some of my sweet dance moves when she gets bigger. I didn’t want to show her up and break them out this time, but next time for sure!

When We Met

Since a lot has happened when my sister was born 2 months ago on August 7th, I have a lot to catch everyone up on! So today I’m going to start at the beginning, the day we first met.

They Day Ammo the Dachshund Met His Little Sister

My sister had to stay in the hospital for 2 whole days after she was born. But finally the day came when she got to come home.

They Day Ammo the Dachshund Met His Little Sister

It was an agonizing wait for me, as I stayed at the farm with my pal Trooper while my family was in the hospital. It was especially hard when I got to smell her baby blanket days before she came home, but yet still I had to wait to meet her. Then finally it was August 9th, the day she came home.

They Day Ammo the Dachshund Met His Little Sister

As you could see in the video, I could hardly wait to meet her. I got to say hi to mom and dad first before she came inside, and I knew things were going to be different after sniffing mom’s belly when she walked in the door. My sister was out in the world now, and I was going to have to make sure she stayed safe.

They Day Ammo the Dachshund Met His Little Sister

Of course before I did that I had to open the present mom and dad brought me. Priorities.

(this is what I got*)

But after that, it was love. I went everywhere sister went, and made sure no one was going to hurt her. That’s what big brothers do.

Now that she’s a little bigger I’ve let go a little and I’m not so clingy. I have to learn to let her be independent after all, as there is much to teach her! Don’t worry though, if anyone messes with her I’ve got a pretty big guard dog bark!

Ammo’s 8th Year

Today is my 8th Birthday! A day of celebration!

Ammo's 8th Birthday

Just as in previous years I love to take this day to look back at all the amazing adventures I’ve had over the past year. So mom helped me whip up my year in review video, with lots of never before shared pictures and videos of me and my sister!

Ammo's 8th Birthday

This year I’ve got a new Birthday buddy to share all the fun with, who coincidentally also turns 8 weeks old on the 7th!

Ammo's 8th Birthday

So kick up your heels and join me in celebrating my 8th Birthday! Something tells me this next year is going to be full of fun and I can’t wait!

I can Bear-ly Wait

I Can Bear-ly Wait

Not that long ago I received a very special package in the mail from my pal Sharkie‘s grandma.

I Can Bear-ly Wait

Not only did it include this adorable handmade sweater for me, but also some super fun items for my sister and I to enjoy.

I Can Bear-ly Wait

I Can Bear-ly Wait

Seriously how cute are these poncho, booties, and cowgirl boots for my little sister? I just know she’s absolutely going to love them once she gets here.

I Can Bear-ly Wait

But my favorite thing of all was this super awesome bear cowl!

I Can Bear-ly Wait

Does it make me look ferocious and bear-like? Well not too ferocious, you know, because I don’t want to be scaring my sister.

I Can Bear-ly Wait

Speaking of my sister, Sharkie’s Grandma made her one too! How cool is that!

I Can Bear-ly Wait

Since I knew these beautifully made items would be so much fun for my sister and I to wear, I thought it would be appropriate to start practicing my story-time skills (with a bear theme of course) for when she gets here. Unfortunately I don’t own Goldilocks and the Three Bears (you better get on that mom!), but I do have this really fun book about National Parks*, and you all know how much I love the great outdoors!

*affiliate link

I Can Bear-ly Wait

And of course it has bears! Maybe someday I’ll get to take my sister on a fun road-trip to visit these national parks in person (some of which I’ve already visited myself – and saw bears in too!)

I Can Bear-ly Wait

Now I just have to wait for my sister to get here so I can actually read it to her!

Thanks to Suzanne for her amazing crocheting skills. My sister and I will treasure these items always! Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity

Do you have any recommendations for fun bear-themed books I can read to my sister when she comes?

Easter Treats + A Giveaway with Martha Stewart Pets

When suddenly mom put this pink bunny suit on me I knew something was up (although to be fair, mom does like to dress me up on a regular basis).

Easter Treats + A Giveaway with Martha Stewart Pets

But this time, this time was different, because it’s almost EASTER! And since I already had my very own bunny suit from Martha Stewart Pets®, I figured I might as well put it to good use. What better way to use a pink bunny suit than to BE the Easter Bunny…I mean how hard can it really be?

Easter Treats + A Giveaway with Martha Stewart Pets

So I hopped on over to Petsmart® and filled a basket full of Easter goodies from the Martha Stewart Pets Spring Line.

Then I did what any other dog dressed as a bunny would do….I scarfed some carrots (you know, for fuel and all)……

….and dove head first into my Easter basket filled of goodies!

Easter Treats + A Giveaway with Martha Stewart Pets

Just as I was getting into the swing of things with my new toys, mom reminded me that the real Easter Bunny wouldn’t keep all the toys for himself. Instead he would share them with all the other good little dogs out there.

Gulp. She was right. What had I become?
