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.

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

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)

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

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.

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.

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

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

Did you ever get a case of the zoomies? You know the feeling, all you want to do is run as fast as you can – ears flapping in the wind – your best friend trailing hopelessly behind you. Just the usual….

Friday Fetch: Iota GPS Pet Tracker

Posted on by

My mom has been on the lookout for a GPS tracker for me for a long time. I’ve yet to make the plunge into having my every move tracked 24/7 (aside from mom and dad keeping a hawks eye watch on me at all times), mostly because mom claims she hasn’t found the perfect one for me yet.

Then I stumbled across the Iota on Kickstarter, which is the smallest, longest-lasting GPS tracker in the world with a lure of a new nationwide network with no monthly fees (unlike most of it’s counterparts). With only 5 days left to help push the Iota into production on Kickstarter I think I might be ready to take the plunge into having my every move monitored (if only to help my mom and dad sleep sounder)!

Check out the video to find out more about the Iota.

Clean Plate Club

Clean Plate Club // Kitchen Remodel // Ammo the Dachshund

You may recall my shopping trip a few weeks ago with mom and dad to pick out a new dishwasher for my kitchen. Well, fast forward to this past weekend and my dish washing replacement finally arrived!

Clean Plate Club // Kitchen Remodel // Ammo the Dachshund

According to mom and dad this is the year of the new kitchen……which by my best guess will take probably about a year to complete at the pace my parents go! But who’s rushing. And since the dishwasher has been leaking all over the floor I guess it was the very first thing to get the big boot.

Clean Plate Club // Kitchen Remodel // Ammo the Dachshund

While mom and dad seemed excited to have a new appliance (the first one ever!) I on the other hand found myself sulking that it was here.

Clean Plate Club // Kitchen Remodel // Ammo the Dachshund

Not only did it come with a whole new set of rules for me (no more standing on the dishwasher door to lick plates to name a few), but it didn’t even smell like anything great, like cookies, bacon, or peanut butter!

Clean Plate Club // Kitchen Remodel // Ammo the Dachshund

Dad got right to work installing the new dishwasher, while I looked on with distain.

Clean Plate Club // Kitchen Remodel // Ammo the Dachshund

The only real fun thing I can say about the new appliance is that the packaging made for a little entertainment. Although it would of been more fun if mom had let me shred it to bits!

Clean Plate Club // Kitchen Remodel // Ammo the Dachshund

Before my new dishwasher was completely installed I tried my hardest one last time to convince mom and dad that the only thing they needed for clean plates was me! Trust me, I can do the job better than any fancy dishwasher.

But alas, the thing got installed anyway. Sigh. I guess you win some and you lose some. Ammo the Dachshund

I found the mat to be the perfect spot to take an afternoon snooze under my favorite tree!

Mom really liked the idea of training me to use the mat to “park myself” when we were out and about (like at a restaurant).

Park It Mat Review & Giveaway // Peach Industries // Ammo the Dachshund

In fact, I even took my new Park It Mat on an adventure over the weekend.

It turned out to be the perfect thing to line the bottom of the shopping cart when I decided to make a pit-stop at the dog friendly home improvement store in my town.

The Park It Mat made it so I didn’t have to stand on the wire bottom of the cart and made the ride much more enjoyable.

Watch This

Watch This // Training Horses Through Mimicking // Ammo the Dachshund

Whenever it’s time to work on training the ponies I’m never too far as I love offering encouraging words to my ponies as they learn new skills and tricks.

Watch This // Training Horses Through Mimicking // Ammo the Dachshund

My buddy Boomerang here is learning how to be more comfortable on a teeter totter.

Watch This // Training Horses Through Mimicking // Ammo the Dachshund

Sometimes though, the ponies learn best by watching someone else do it first. So I offer up my skills, and tell Boomerang to watch this as I plod effortlessly across the teeter totter. In theory, watching someone else do it helps my ponies to realize it’s not as scary as it seems.

Although it would also help if Boomerang was actually paying attention instead of sneaking grass behind me! Sigh. Ammo the Dachshund

Kid Magnet

Kid Magnet // Ammo the Dachshund

One of the things that I love about the summer is being able to dine at restaurants with my mom and dad. Occasionally on the weekends we make sunday morning breakfasts (which accommodate outdoor seating that is dog friendly) a priority.

Kid Magnet // Ammo the Dachshund

This particular weekend I decided to hit up the Green Street Grill for some yummy breakfast.

Kid Magnet // Ammo the Dachshund

As soon as I parked myself at the dining table I began to draw attention from the other diners, in particular those that were under 3 feet tall.

Kid Magnet // Ammo the Dachshund

If you didn’t know already, I’m a total kid magnet!

Kid Magnet // Ammo the Dachshund

Maybe it’s because I’m the perfect kid-friendly size, but where-ever I go those tiny little hands are bound to find their way onto my fur.

Kid Magnet // Ammo the Dachshund

And I’m totally ok with being a kid magnet, because when I’m stuck eyeballing mom’s breakfast (that I seem to never get a bite of)…..

Kid Magnet // Ammo the Dachshund

….I know there will always be a kid nearby that has their breakfast all over their face and hands that totally won’t mind if I sneak a lick!

Kid Magnet // Ammo the Dachshund

Afterwards, when I thought my breakfast outing was over, we headed out to the home improvement store to do some shopping.

Kid Magnet // Ammo the Dachshund

Little did I know that my breakfast wasn’t quite over yet, because I got to meet this little girl with delicious left-over food all over her face!

Kid Magnet // Ammo the Dachshund

Being a kid magnet is exhausting, but I wouldn’t change it for anything, because someone out there has to rid the world of sticky kid hands and faces! Ammo the Dachshund

Sometimes I like to find a nice sunny spot to dose in for an enjoyable afternoon nap.

Afternoon naps are simply the best, but as I slowly begin to awake….

…I come face to face with the lens of a camera!

Frankly it’s a bit creepy!

The Eclectic Hound Martingale Review & Giveaway

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)
