The 5-in-1 Leash You'll Love + A Giveaway

I’m totally the kind of dog that LOVES a multi-functional product. So when my friends over at HUND Denmark sent over their 5-in-1 Baldy Leash for me to test out I was super excited!

The 5-in-1 Leash You'll Love + A Giveaway

It’s hard to make it come across in photos, but this HUND Denmark Dog Leash has the softest leather I’ve ever felt.

It is a vegetable tanned Italian Leather that is velvety soft, durable and dyed with natural dyes derived from plants. It’s also eco-friendly without the use of chemicals.

The 5-in-1 Leash You'll Love + A Giveaway

Mmmmmm, oh so soft! But what I’m really excited about is the functionality, because with a baby sister on board for most of my walks now anything that makes things easier for my mom is a welcome addition.

See this multifunctional leash can easily be adjusted from 4 feet…

All Up In It

All Up In It

Holy Cow. You’re never gonna guess what showed up on the farm the other day. My eyes caught sight of it, and I could just hardly contain my excitement. It was….

All Up In It

….a GIANT, fantastic, amazing pile of screenings!

All Up In It

Of course I wasted no time at all getting ALL UP IN IT, because there really is only one thing you can do when a big pile of screenings shows up at your doorstep….

All Up In It

…Conquer that mountain like nobody’s business.

Well and maybe dig a hole or two as well…

Adventures with Pumpkins

Adventures with Pumpkins

Ok, so I know Halloween is over and it’s now November, but I just had to share one final “October” adventure that I just know you’ll love.

Adventures with Pumpkins

See just before Halloween my mom and dad found this new orchard near my house that is super dog friendly! Because surprisingly most orchards in my area don’t allow pets, which is very odd to me.

*side note – I always call ahead when planning an adventure to find out if I’m allowed to accompany my family. You’d be surprised how pet friendly some places can be if you just ask first!

Adventures with Pumpkins

So I was thrilled to find out that I was allowed to accompany my family into the fields to pick out our pumpkins this year.

Adventures with Pumpkins

Next year I’m totally going to pick apples with my sister too! I’m just waiting for her to get a little taller so I can get a boost up in that tree!

Adventures with Pumpkins

Picking out pumpkins for everyone in the family wasn’t enough, because when it’s Halloween you have to carve them!

Adventures with Pumpkins

But since my sister is too little, and I have paws, that left mom and dad to do the dirty work. Don’t worry, I barked directions at them the whole time.

Adventures with Pumpkins

Adventures with Pumpkins

A short while later we had 4 pumpkins ready and waiting to be lit for Halloween night!

Granted they may not have been quite as elaborate as years past, but when you’re trying to squeeze in some pumpkin carving while your sister naps it’s about as good as it gets.

The Secret to Having Lots of Adventures with your Dog

Autumn Adventures on the Lake - Ammo the Dachshund goes Paddleboarding

Adventure. It’s in my blood. For the past 8 years my mom and dad haven’t hesitated to decide on a whim, today is the day for an adventure.

Music in the Park with Ammo the Dachshund

And then my sister arrived, and I was a little worried all that adventuring was going to be over. I should have known I didn’t need to worry though, because my mom has always had a secret weapon when it comes to getting everyone out of the house for some fun.

Jasper Swag Dog Walking Bags

That secret……bags! My mom has always left bags packed by the door ready to go with all the supplies needed for our next big adventure. In the summer we have a pool/lake bag with towels & life vests, and in the winter we have a bag with extra warm coats, and now with the addition of my sister there is need for even more bags!

Jasper Swag Dog Walking Bags

Mom has been keeping this fun On The Fly Jasper Swag Dog Walking Bag just for me packed and ready by the door so we can head out on a moments notice.

Here she is packing up all my gear (and my sister’s too) to be ready for our next big adventure:

Jasper Swag Dog Walking Bags

Mom and I have been loving the Jasper Swag Bag because not only does it have pockets for all my essentials (poop bags, extra id tags & collar, cookies – of course, water, bowl, etc), but it also fits some of mom’s gear like keys and mobile phone.

Jasper Swag Dog Walking Bags

Mom loves the waist belt option too because it gives her more use of her arms, which apparently you can never have enough of when you have a baby sister and a dog to look after. I wouldn’t know since all I have are these paws.

So if you’re looking for a bag to make adventuring easier, then check out the full line of Jasper Swag Bags available at:

Trick or Treat and Happy Halloween

Disclaimer: I was given a product from Chewy in exchange for a review. All opinions are my own, and I only share products I think you and your dogs will love.

Trick or Treat and Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween everyone!!

I bet you’re wondering why I’m dressed like a lobster today instead of in my super cool Team Zissou costume. Well there is a very good reason.

Trick or Treat and Happy Halloween

See even though it’s Halloween I can’t go trick or treating, mostly because candy is apparently not good for us dogs. Which is totally unfair if you ask me.

Trick or Treat and Happy Halloween

So instead I’ll be staying home tonight and handing out my own treats, these fun Boo Bars from Chewy.com

Trick or Treat and Happy Halloween

Boo Bars made by Blue Buffalo are:

  • Oven-baked for a mouth-watering taste of pumpkin & cinnamon, and made with wholesome grains, fruits and veggies
  • Jam-packed with omegas and antioxidants for a healthy skin and coat and strong immune system
  • Made with no chicken/poultry by-product meals, just real ingredients
  • Don’t have any corn, wheat or soy, so it’s great for pups with food allergies
  • Contain no artificial preservatives, colors or flavors, just natural dog treats enhanced with added vitamins

And according to me, they taste delicious!

Trick or Treat and Happy Halloween

So now back to why I have this lobster costume one. See these treats tasted so good that I was worried all the little ghosts and goblins were going to gobble them up tonight. So to make sure there is plenty leftover for me I wore this lobster costume with scary CLAWS that can pinch anyone that tries to take all the cookies! Smart thinking right?

Nobody better try and steal my cookies! Just in case your dog feels the same way about their Halloween treats, you can grab them their own at Chewy.com.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity

Swimming in the Laurels

Hiking in the Laurels with Friends

When my sister was about 3 weeks old my cousins came to visit from the south. That little white dog is my cousin Sharkie, and the bigger dog on the right is my newly rescued cousin, Scout. And of course you know me and Trooper!

Hiking in the Laurels with Friends

Since it’s rude not to take your guests on fun adventures when they visit you, of course I had to take them to the river for some swimming fun!

Hiking in the Laurels with Friends

And don’t worry, my sister came along for the fun too. Although she was much too young to join in the water activities.

Hiking in the Laurels with Friends

Trooper and Scout became fast friends and took to the water in no time. Especially Scout who I think may be part fish.

Hiking in the Laurels with Friends

Now I tend to be a little more reserved with my swimming, and I usually don’t like to swim unless I have my life vest* on. But unfortunately this was a spur of the moment trip and I forgot to pack it! (Same with the other dogs who have life vests too).

While mom always keeps a watchful eye on me when I’m around the water, she had to watch my sister too.

Hiking in the Laurels with Friends

So my pal Trooper stepped up to keep a watchful eye on me when I finally decided it was so hot that I had to test out the water.

Hiking in the Laurels with Friends

What a great pal, making sure I got to shore safely each time.

Next time I’ll be sure to pack my life vest, but it’s good to know I’ve got friends that will help me out!

Dogs And Their People

This is not a sponsored post, but it does contain affiliate links.
Dogs And Their People // Ammo the Dachshund in Barkbook

Now at first glance this might look like just a cute book about Dogs and Their People. And while that fun smiling corgi is super fun, there is something even more special about this book…

Dogs And Their People // Ammo the Dachshund in Barkbook

…I’m in the book! As you can see my sister couldn’t wait to help me celebrate my very first “in print” literature.

Dogs And Their People // Ammo the Dachshund in Barkbook

Many lucky dogs just like me have people that love them very much (like my sister here), so much so that the quirky stories that prove their love are included in this book of collected stories by my friends over at Barkbox!

Dogs And Their People // Ammo the Dachshund in Barkbook

So I’m sure none of you are surprised that I might be included in this book, after all my mom and dad do some crazy things to show me that they care. (Taking me flying, a road trip so I could walk the red carpet, and documenting my entire life on this blog to name a few)

Dogs And Their People // Ammo the Dachshund in Barkbook

In the Dogs and their People Book I’ve got an entire page dedicated to me, written by my mom!

Dogs And Their People // Ammo the Dachshund in Barkbook

The Barkshop even came out with this super fun replica book that doubles as a baby toy (or I guess dog toy depending on who you are)!

Dogs And Their People // Ammo the Dachshund in Barkbook

So if you’re looking for a cool gift for all your friends this holiday season, or just can’t get enough of yours truly, be sure to grab this fabulous book! It’s got so many fun reads inside that I’m still not finished it completely.
