Working Late on the Farmhouse // Ammo the Dachshund

The last few weeks I’ve been busy helping with construction at the farm – most specifically the site of Trooper’s new house.

From helping to install insulation…..

…to helping to make cuts on the table saw, I’ve pretty much become a house building expert! (don’t worry, I don’t actually use the saw, I simply bark at the operators to not cut off a limb!)

Trooper on the other hand is becoming quite skilled at holding boards in need of nailing. He may or may not be sneaking off with a few that he “claims” need shortening with the help of a few skilled gnaws!

When I signed up to help build this house I really was not informed about just how many hours it actually takes to build a house from the ground up. It’s a good thing Trooper brought along his construction bed, because I must admit it has come in handy during long work hours on the farm.

Working into the wee hours of the night to keep the house building on schedule is apparently now in my job description.

With a few power naps tossed in here and there.

Don’t worry though, Trooper and I are quite good at encouraging our workers to KEEP WORKING when it comes down to it!

And thankfully due to our hard work progress is moving along rather quickly now, with the drywall installation going in just this past weekend!

Yup, definitely starting to look like a real house now! I’ve already “marked” my bedroom for when Trooper lets me sleep over.

And I’m proudly wearing my badge of sawdust to prove just how much of a hard worker I am! Ammo the Dachshund

  1. Hey Ammo! I bet you’re a great helper! They’re lucky to have you there. And you’re always so fashionable dressed for the job. Watch out for nails!

  2. Ammo, you are just amazing and such a hard worker!!! Hope you didn’t get any insulation on you, they tell me that the itching from that is no fun!!! Does Trooper have a guestroom or will you be sleeping with him?
