Hop Along - Easter Recap

Ok, so I know the last time I mentioned the Easter Bunny I gave him a really hard time for sneaking into my house at night and leaving chocolate goodies I couldn’t even eat. Not to mention I wasn’t even allowed to bite him or bark at him!

But I guess Mr. Easter Bunny heard me loud and clear, because he really tried to win me over this year.

Not only did he bring my sister a whole bunch of fun toys (non-chocolate I might add), that I may or may not have opened for her…

…but he also brought me some fun toys too. He has good taste too, because he shops at my favorite store, The Barkshop*.

So yeah, that Bunny, I guess he’s not so bad.

I was actually a little disappointed once my basket was empty. But when one door closes, another opens.

And that door brought my Nannie & Opa (and my MomMom, PopPop, cousins, aunts and uncles too!), who also brought me presents!!

I’m one lucky dog!

My Easter fun didn’t end there though, it was time for the annual egg hunt, and since this year was my sister’s first time I had to teach her how it was done.

She actually didn’t do too poorly, but it’s probably because she had a pretty awesome teacher.

Well, that about sums up my Easter, and as you can see Baby P and I are now totally on team Easter Bunny!

But, just FYI Bunny, Baby P and I won’t hesitate to use stink faces on you should you bring us icky presents next year. 😉

The End.

P.S. For once I’m not the one that can’t sit still for a photograph.

Happy Easter from Ammo the Dachshund

Well, it’s almost that time of year again. A day when a giant bunny visits your home in the night and leaves you little chocolatey presents in a basket (that you aren’t even allowed to eat if you’re a dog), and you’re expected not to bite him, chase him, or do anything that you would normally do to a bunny should he come into your home.

Yea, I don’t really get it either.

Happy Easter from Ammo the Dachshund

But, in an effort to humor my mom, and make my little sister happy, I did something that goes against ALL of my instincts as a fierce hunting dog.

Easter Bunny Visit

I sat on the Easter Bunny’s lap at the mall.

Totally embarrassing!

I didn’t bite him, but I was definitely not going to smile for my photo either! (Baby P was totally supporting me too and refused to smile as well!)

I hope you’re happy mom, because I’m pretty sure all the critters in my backyard are laughing their tails off!

Happy Easter Everyone! Have you ever taken your dog to visit the Easter Bunny?

The Easter Bunny Came

Easter Bunny with Dachshund // Ammo the Dachshund

As you know Easter was this past Sunday. It’s one of my favorite holidays – as holidays that involve a bunny always make the top of my list! Alas though, when I woke up Sunday morning it seems I had just missed Mr. Bunny.

Easter with the Barkbox Bunny // Ammo the Dachshund

But don’t worry, because the very special BarkBox Bunny never seems to miss my house, and this year was no exception. Check out the fun video of me diving into my Easter Basket:

That Barkbox Bunny knows just what kind of goodies I love!

After opening my basket I packed up and headed over to my mom-mom’s house where I was put in charge of hiding the easter eggs for all of my cousins (on account of I’m very good at finding hiding spots – mostly of the hole variety!).

Easter Bunny with Dachshund // Ammo the Dachshund

That’s right, they’ll never find this one!

My cousins are pretty good at finding easter eggs, but I couldn’t let them have all the fun!

Easter Bunny with Dachshund // Ammo the Dachshund

Too bad all the eggs I found had jelly beans in them….yuck!

After the egg hunt it was time for dinner. Unfortunately my family forgot to set a place for me at the table! Can you believe it! Don’t worry though, I found the perfect spot to look pathetic and got handed plenty of little nibbles.

And after I was nice and stuffed one of my cousins volunteered to take me for a walk. I burned off all those calories in a matter of minutes hunting for more easter bunnies!

Born Pretty Review & Giveaway

Posted on January 6, 2014 by Ammo

Disclaimer: This review and giveaway is a sponsored post by Born Pretty.

The website, Born Pretty, recently launched a new line of pet products and asked if I would like to test some of them out.

I browsed through their online shop which had a lot of variety of items, most of which were at pretty reasonable prices – and they even offer FREE WORLDWIDE SHIPPING! From winter coats, to light up collars, toys and more – I had a tough time deciding what to test out.

Born Pretty Product Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

I finally landed on this treat launcher (which I’ve always wanted to try) and this interesting rubber egg dog toy.

The rubber egg didn’t come with any packaging and the online description wasn’t very informative other than to say that it was resistant to dog bites. Since I’m such a tough chewer mom decided not to let me play with the egg since she couldn’t determine if it might easily break apart or harm me if I swallowed any pieces.

Born Pretty Product Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

That’s ok though, because the toy I really wanted to test out was the treat launcher! And after a quick wash (as suggested on the back of the package) I was ready to launch some treats!

I had a little trouble locating those flying cookies, but I’m sure with a bit more practice I will totally get the hang of it!

The launcher works a bit easier if you don’t over-fill it with treats, but regardless it was still fun to play with. How can you not like a toy that shoots cookies into the air?

Easter Recap // Ammo the Dachshund

When Easter morning arrived Mr. Bunny had left a basket of goodies just for me!

Watch the proof below:

Of course I wasted no time in digging into my goodies, thanks so much Bunny, they were lovely!

Easter Recap // Ammo the Dachshund

I may have strutted around the house for quite some time just showing off my new toys.

Easter Recap // Ammo the Dachshund

Later on my family came to spend the day with me (even by bestest pal Trooper was there) and I enjoyed seeing everyone.

Easter Recap // Ammo the Dachshund

It rained a bit on Easter, so I kindly offered up my dog training facilities in the basement so that my cousins could have their annual Easter egg hunt.

Easter Recap // Ammo the Dachshund

I’m pretty sure I had the most eggs when everything was all said and done. (It’s because of my lightning fast speed!)

Easter Recap // Ammo the Dachshund

At the end of the day though, I come for one thing and one thing only…..the HAM! And I have to say it was DELISH!

Easter Recap // Ammo the Dachshund

Happy Easter // Ammo the Dachshund

I hope everyone had a nice Easter with their friends and family, and I’m already looking forward to next year, but it’s far to long to wait for more ham if I do say so myself!

P.S. Thanks to everyone who shared their dogs in their Easter Bowties on my Facebook Page. I loved seeing all those happy dogs in their Easter wear after following my tutorial!
