Drool Worthy TRU Harvest Dog Treats from Walmart #sponsored

When you’re a dog it can sometimes be difficult to communicate to the humans exactly what you want. While we might not be able to speak in the true sense, we have become rather creative in expressing what we like and dislike to our humans.

Drool Worthy TRU Harvest Dog Treats from Walmart #sponsored

That’s exactly what happened when these new TRU harvest® treats from Walmart recently showed up at the farm!

See these brand new treats are made with Ancient Grains (Barley, Spelt, and Quinoa), which are naturally low in fat and contain more nutrients than common grains. They also contain NO corn, soy, wheat, artificial colors or flavors, or poultry by-products. And the very first ingredient is REAL meat….real meat you say….

Mom got Trooper and I drooling by first tempting us with TRU harvest® with Ancient Grains Chewy Bars with barley, spelt & quinoa. They come in a Chicken, Cheese, & Tomato Flavor or the Turkey & Cranberry Flavor.

Then as if that weren’t enough she whipped out the TRU harvest® with Ancient Grains Wavy Strips with barley, spelt & quinoa! They also come in two flavors, Chicken & Sweet Potato or Turkey & Pumpkin.

To make things worse, Trooper and his tall self stole a bite before I even got to taste them! The nerve!

It was finally time to break out the big guns and exercise my right to freedom of speech. Mom was going to surely know EXACTLY what I wanted this time!

And from what I hear, I’m not the only one begging for more of these treats…just check out the video below….

I’ll be honest, the dogs in that video are pretty good at telling their humans what they want, but they’ve got nothing on Trooper and I…

Ok, well Trooper is a bit of a lost soul, but I’m pretty darn good at expressing myself!

So if you don’t want to be the victim of your dog’s communication skills, then you might want to grab them some TRU harvest® Dog Treats with Ancient Grains, found exclusively at Walmart.

Dog Food for Pets with Allergies + A Giveaway

Disclaimer: this product review and giveaway is brought to you by Brothers Complete. All opinions are my own, and I only share products I think you and your dog will love.

Brothers Complete Allergy Dog Food and Treats Review + A Giveaway

As you may already know, my buddy Trooper and I have been on a rotational diet since we were just wee pups, meaning we’re always rotating the foods we eat. We’re always on the lookout for new foods to add to our diets, and recently I was introduced to the dog food brand Brothers Complete.

Brothers Complete Allergy Dog Food and Treats Review + A Giveaway

Brothers Complete is a family owned and operated business that believes in making the most nutritious and healthy dog food. They are committed to making an ultra premium dog food that is exceptional at rebalancing and restoring a dog’s health and maintaining a vibrant state of health throughout it’s life. Since I plan to live FOR-EVER, this is great news.

Brothers Complete Allergy Dog Food and Treats Review + A Giveaway

Not only do they make a line of dry pet food, but they also make their own biscuits and jerky too. The Brothers Complete line of treats contain no grain, no white potato, no sweet potato, and no sugar in any form. And as I’m informed by the people who monitor my food intake (aka mom), sugars = bad.

Brothers Complete Allergy Dog Food and Treats Review + A Giveaway

Trooper and I loved sampling their line of treats and mom loved that their biscuits included a special blend of minerals, vitamins, and nutrients for a treat that is nutritionally complete and balanced.

The Brothers Complete Biscuit Treats are formulated to compliment and work effectively in conjunction with all the Brothers Complete Advanced Allergy Dry Dog Food Formulas. Trooper and I found that they were a great crunchy size to clean our teeth after meals too.

Brothers Complete Allergy Dog Food and Treats Review + A Giveaway

Brothers Complete Jerky treats were only made from a single ingredient and just like all the Brothers products they are sourced and made right here in the USA.

Brothers Complete Allergy Dog Food and Treats Review + A Giveaway

Brothers Complete believes that a poor diet is primarily responsible for 95% of the allergy and skin conditions that dogs have nowadays. While neither Trooper or I have any food allergies (other than I have a sensitivity to dairy), I decided to let my buddy Trooper test out this food first since he has a history of fatty tumors. These fatty tumors (aka Lipomas) are non-cancerous and can be hereditary, but some studies have shown that a poor nutritional diet can attribute to them as well. While Trooper has always been fed the best, we figured letting him chow down on the Brothers Complete line can only help! Even if your dog doesn’t have allergies, Brothers Complete can be a great choice for making sure your pet gets a nutritional diet.

Key Features of Brothers Complete Dry Dog Food:

  • Does NOT use any grain, potato, or sugar in any form in any of it’s formulas
  • Uses human grade ingredients and sources ingredients from the USA
  • Their Dry Dog Food comes in 4 different limited ingredient formulas for dogs with allergies to certain foods
  • Food is made in small batches on a more frequent basis so it is always fresh
  • Contains high levels of the best quality protein derived from human grade sources and is low in fat. Over 90% of the protein in Brothers is derived from animal protein

You can read their full ingredient list on their website as well as more detailed information about the quality of their pet foods.

Brothers Complete Allergy Dog Food and Treats Review + A Giveaway

So after nearly a month of eating Brothers Choice (the Venison formula) twice a day Trooper reported back that he was more energetic and playful and his coat was extra shiny and soft! I will definitely be adding Brothers Choice into my diet as well and my pal Trooper is looking forward to continuing to eat this great food too.

You can pick up the Brothers Choice Dry Dog foods in 4 great formulas; Chicken and Egg, Lamb and Egg, Turkey and Egg, & Venison and Egg from the Brothers Choice Website.

Post Turkey Hangover

Thanksgiving may have been last week, but that doesn’t mean I’ve recovered from it just yet! Here’s just how I celebrated this year…

Post Turkey Hangover // Thanksgiving // Ammo the Dachshund

I kicked off my Thanksgiving with a trip to the farm – and as you can see I had snow on Turkey Day!

Post Turkey Hangover // Thanksgiving // Ammo the Dachshund

As lovely as I find the snow, I was thankful that Trooper’s new house has heat – because I was looking forward to being warm!

Post Turkey Hangover // Thanksgiving // Ammo the Dachshund

Trooper spent most of the Thanksgiving morning doing this – I suspect he just didn’t want to share his new Puller toys with me….but that’s ok, I’m still thankful for my best friend – even if he doesn’t like to share!

Post Turkey Hangover // Thanksgiving // Ammo the Dachshund

Eventually Trooper stepped away from his Puller hoarding to share some Canidae cookies with me, YUM!

Post Turkey Hangover // Thanksgiving // Ammo the Dachshund

And I had an obligatory Thanksgiving potty break. 🙂

Post Turkey Hangover // Thanksgiving // Ammo the Dachshund

Now even though we didn’t have a Thanksgiving meal at Trooper’s new house (as there is still lots of construction to be done), that didn’t stop me from hanging around in the kitchen.

Post Turkey Hangover // Thanksgiving // Ammo the Dachshund

Because regardless of wether there is food or not, the kitchen is where you’re supposed to be on Thanksgiving day!

Post Turkey Hangover // Thanksgiving // Ammo the Dachshund

Before I knew it though it was time to wave goodbye to my ponies and head off on my next Thanksgiving adventure.

Post Turkey Hangover // Thanksgiving // Ammo the Dachshund

At Mom Mom & Pop Pop’s house I started where I had left off at the farm….hanging around the kitchen.

Post Turkey Hangover // Thanksgiving // Ammo the Dachshund

Only this time there was an actual turkey!

Thanksgiving should be renamed “Torture Dogs with a Big Plate of Meat Day”, because it is TORTURE!

Post Turkey Hangover // Thanksgiving // Ammo the Dachshund

And even though I didn’t get to have more than a bite or two of turkey, I did get to enjoy my own feast complete with doggie stew that came with my Barkbox this month!

Post Turkey Hangover // Thanksgiving // Ammo the Dachshund

It comes at no surprise that my post turkey day self looked like this. But boy was it a good day with my family! Ammo the Dachshund

 

P.S. Don’t forget there is still time to order one of my Adventure Awaits T-shirts for Christmas and to benefit the Coast to Coast Dachshund Rescue! Hurry before it’s too late!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving // Ammo the Dachshund

Did you hear the news? It’s Thanksgiving Day! A day to be thankful and a day to eat turkey! That’s totally my kind of holiday.

Happy Thanksgiving // Ammo the Dachshund

Which is also why I came prepared with my very own turkey shoveling spoon!

Happy Thanksgiving // Ammo the Dachshund

I hope you brought yours too! Happy Thanksgiving! Ammo the Dachshund

My Bags are Packed

My Bags are Packed // Ammo the Dachshund

Last year for Thanksgiving I headed south to North Carolina to visit family. My road trip was so much fun that I’ve decided it was time for another adventure this Thanksgiving. So today I’m on my way (with Trooper too) to Charleston, South Carolina for a couple of days of fun with my family!

Higbee Beach - Dog Friendly Beaches in Cape May via Ammo the Dachshund

I’m sure my days will be filled with lots of adventure, I’m especially looking forward to playing on the beach with Trooper! Don’t worry, when I return I’ll be sure to fill you in on all the fun I’ve had, but in the meantime I’ll be sure to post pictures of my road trip on Facebook and Instagram as I travel.

And if anyone knows any fun dog-friendly adventures in and around the Charleston, South Carolina area post them in the comments section!

Build your own DIY Pet First Aid Kit with Ammo the Dachshund

I’ve meticulously packed my bag with everything I might need for my trip. You can check out what I typically pack for a road-trip, and I always make sure to store the phone numbers for emergency vets in mom’s phone as well as bringing along my DIY Pet First Aid Kit.

I was also super excited when just in time for my trip my November Barkbox showed up at my door.

November Barkbox // Ammo the Dachshund

Packed full of goodies perfect for a Thanksgiving feast of my own I could hardly wait to dig right in!

Mom even set aside these Turkey chews for Trooper and I to have on Thanksgiving day!

Of course she let me have a little goodie before the trip to wet my whistle – even the dental chews were mighty tasty.

Road Trip with Ammo – Thanksgiving in North Carolina

On my last full day in Asheville, North Carolina I got to spend Thanksgiving day with my friends and family.

Road Trip with Ammo the Dachshund // Thanksgiving Day

I spent most of the morning lounging on the front porch and soaking in the sun.

Road Trip with Ammo the Dachshund // Thanksgiving Day

It was nice to spend the day relaxing with loved ones.

Eventually Trooper and I got bored though – and a wrestling match soon followed. It didn’t last long though, because dinner was soon to be ready.

Road Trip with Ammo the Dachshund // Thanksgiving Day

Inside I shared a feast with my friends, including me new pal Arlo.

Road Trip with Ammo the Dachshund // Thanksgiving Day

Arlo was way prepared for Thanksgiving in his tuxedo, and he had me feeling very under dressed.

Road Trip with Ammo the Dachshund // Thanksgiving Day

All in all I spent a wonderful Thanksgiving day in Asheville and next time I return I hope I can listen to my Uncle Taylor’s band….I’ve already warned them that I play a mean set of drums…should the need arise.

Road Trip with Ammo the Dachshund // Thanksgiving Day

The next day Trooper and I stuffed ourselves back into the car and headed towards our home in Pennsylvania. It’s nice to travel and experience the world, but there is nothing quite like coming home to your own bed! Ammo the Dachshund

 

Happy Thanksgiving!

It’s Turkey Day here in the states! And you know what that means….Turkey!

Last week I asked my Facebook fans what I should wear for my Thanksgiving Day feast, and I got some great suggestions. I figured it was a pretty safe bet that my bow tie would be a Turkey-Day hit.

It’s dressy, but not too dressy that I can’t still run around outside and wrestle with my bestest buddy Trooper.

But I just know as we approach “meal time” that my Turkey-Day bow tie just won’t cut it.

Which is exactly why I packed my stretchy pants this year!

With all those goodies around today I’m extra glad I’ll have a bit more room around the waist.

I’m one smart cookie!

So before I scamper off to have some fun with my family I wanted to say…… I’m thankful for each and every one of you! Knowing that I can brighten your day with my adventures is seriously they highlight of my day. Thanks for taking the time to read, leave me comments, and generally just give a dog the warm fuzzies inside.

So Happy Thanksgiving to all of you!

It’s Turkey Time

I’m here to wish everyone a HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

ammo the dachshund thanksgiving

I’m excited to spend the day with my family and even my best pal Trooper. And I’m especially excited to park myself under the dining table and wait for all the food scraps to fall.

ammo the dachshund thanksgiving

I’ve been practicing, and I’m pretty sure I could fit a whole turkey in my mouth if I had to. I can hardly wait!

ammo the dachshund thanksgiving

On this day, I also wanted to say how very thankful I am to have so many wonderful internet friends that enjoy reading my daily adventures. Your comments and special notes make me feel oh-so-special and it makes me smile whenever I know that I was able to brighten your day.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING  xoxo your pal,
