DIY Dog Nail Art // Woof // Ammo the Dachshund

Since I’m celebrating Birthday Week on the blog, I thought it would be fun to share a fun DIY for some dog inspired artwork! You’ll love this fun tutorial to add a little extra woof to your own home!

String Art isn’t a new concept, all you have to do is search pinterest and tons of examples will pop up. After seeing lots of fun renditions on the web I thought it would be fun to create my own design, with man’s best friend in mind!

Step 4: Tie your string to one of the nails and begin winding around them in every which direction. It helps if you outline each of the letters with string before filling them in.

The Dog Friendly Shake Shack

The Dog Friendly Shake Shack // Ammo the Dachshund

On a recent excursion I found myself at the King of Prussia Mall, right around dinner time I might add. Not one to pass up an opportunity to dine out with my family, I decided to try out one of the local dog friendly restaurants.

The Shake Shack is located just outside the mall, and has establishments in other states as well. I had heard rumors that they had a dog menu, so I couldn’t wait to try it out!

I waited patiently outside under our table while mom and dad went inside to check out the menu.

There was in fact a whole section of the menu dedicated to us furry four-legged patrons!

In collaboration with one of my favorite bakeries, Bocce’s Bakery, the Shake Shack offered up some tasty biscuits and frozen treats.

But alas, they were all sold out of both when mom and dad finally made it up to the counter to order!

There was no shortage of human food though and while my parents chowed down on hot dogs, burgers, fries and shakes, I was left staring at the table like this….

Don’t worry, when you look this cute you get your fair share of burgers and fries too!

I’ll just have to hit up the Shake Shack again soon to try out their doggie menu. What’s your dog’s favorite dog friendly restaurant? Share your favorites around the country in the comments below! Ammo the Dachshund
