Adventures at Ludwigs

Adventures at Ludwigs // Ammo the Dachshund

Over the Labor Day Weekend me and my best pony pal Minnow, the Painting Pony, attended the Ludwigs Corner Horse Show.

Our goal, to make as many people smile as we could!

My pal Minnow is pretty good at helping us draw a crowd, I mean just look at his super model pose!

And when he starts to paint everyone can’t help but to be captivated!

Myself included, as I love watching Minnow create his special works of art.

Minnow painted several works of art throughout the day which should be available on his website very soon.

Finally it was my turn to perform, and I showed off some of my expert hoop jumping skills.

I even made it through the flaming hoop of death…..unharmed!

I also shared a few of my circus stunts like rolling my barrel….

….and playing dead!

And for my final heroic stunt, I dove head first though a solid hoop (don’t worry, I wore my helmet for safety!)

After our first performance of the day a nasty thunderstorm rolled through. Minnow went to wait out the storm on the horse trailer while I hunkered down in our tent.

Eventually the sun came back out for just long enough for Minnow to create a few more paintings, even if the crowds had died down pretty drastically!

By the end of the day I was pretty beat! But I’m pretty sure Minnow and I accomplished our goal to make everyone smile! Ammo the Dachshund

Friday Fetch: PuppyTails Spritz & Sniff Deodorizing Spray

Posted on by

I don’t know about you, but personally I’m a dog that loves to be dirty ALL THE TIME! My parents can’t always appreciate my carefully applied aroma, and I don’t particularly LOVE spending every night in the bathtub. So when I stumbled across PuppyTails Spritz & Sniff Deodorizing Spray, it sounded like a happy medium.

Available in 2 fun scents (coconut and rosemary) from PetFancy these Spritzers will keep your pup’s coat feeling and smelling clean!

A Visit from the Horse Dentist

Posted on by

A visit with the Horse Dentist // Ammo the Dachshund

This week on the farm the horses were due for their dental check-up. Trooper and I of course were on hand for moral support.

A visit with the Horse Dentist // Ammo the Dachshund

Because who in their right mind likes to go to the dentist? Especially when you have to wear this type of contraption on your face!

A visit with the Horse Dentist // Ammo the Dachshund

Trooper always tries to be Mr. Helper, offering to hold supplies – mostly towels. That dog has an unhealthy obsession with towels if you ask me! I didn’t have the heart to tell him that they aren’t necessary tools for a dental exam.

A visit with the Horse Dentist // Ammo the Dachshund

I on the other hand just like to wait and see if there are any loose pony teeth, because I hear the tooth fairy will shell out double for horse teeth!

A visit with the Horse Dentist // Ammo the Dachshund

One thing can always be certain after a visit from the horse dentist though…..

A visit with the Horse Dentist // Ammo the Dachshund

….Trooper and I will be sure to brush our teeth extra well to avoid having to visit the dentist ourselves! Those tools look scary! Ammo the Dachshund

How to Cure Shop Dog Boredom // Ammo the Dachshund

Yesterday my buddy Trooper came to hang out with me at the shop. We have a lot of fun together, and he’s always been my very favorite cuddle buddy.

How to Cure Shop Dog Boredom // Ammo the Dachshund

As fun as it is to have a pal at work, sometimes being a shop dog can get downright boring!

But don’t worry, I have the absolute best method for curing shop dog boredom….

Treat dispensing toys! Woohoo!

Now seriously, what’s more fun than a toy that pops out cookies when you play with it? Nothing, the answer is nothing!

What do you do to cure your dog’s boredom? Ammo the Dachshund

Watercolor Dachshund Pillow Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

See this happy little guy behind me? Well he arrived at my house last week from Canis Picta!

Not only that, but they are also dachshund fanatics, which means you can find some fun dachshund and dog designs in their shop too.

Watercolor Dachshund Pillow Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Well when my new 16×16 dachshund pillow cover arrived, at first I thought maybe he was staring at me a bit too much.

So we had a few “words” with each other about how staring isn’t friendly. Well you know what, that Canis Pictas Pillow Cover is pretty tough and he wasn’t going to let me win this fight – and he held up to my tough choppers.

So eventually we made up, and now we’re pals.

Ammo the Dachshund // Bubble Wrap King

Sometimes being a shop dog can be really hard. Like when all you want to do is play in a giant pile of bubble wrap but mom says there is real work to be done!

Best Bully Sticks Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

But when there is real work to be done at the shop, mom has a secret weapon (especially for days when all I want to do is play in bubble wrap)……Gullet Sticks from Best Bully Sticks!

Gullet Sticks are made from 100% beef esophagus, and a little softer than bully sticks making them ideal for smaller dogs.

Best Bully Sticks Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

These 6 Inch Braided Gullet Sticks from Best Bully Sticks are long-lasting dog chews that are an excellent source of glucosamine which aids in joint health.

Best Bully Sticks Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

So when mom needs to get some work done at the shop she slips me one of these Braided Gullet Sticks from Best Bully Sticks to keep me occupied (and out of the bubble wrap).

Don’t worry, even though I’m supposed to be the meet and greet committee at the shop door, my gullet stick chewing faces have become quite entertaining to the customers!

And as a bonus I’m cleaning my pearly whites too! Yipee!

Best Bully Sticks is great because not only do they carry a whole array of dog chews you can feel good about feeding, but they have the best prices on the web. And when you go through dog chews like I do, that’s important!
