I’ve finished packing…
…and loaded up all the necessities (which includes my pal Trooper), because I’m off on another adventure!
A road-trip of epic proportions (where it might be a wee bit warmer than Pennsylvania).
And when I return I’m sure I will have some amazing stories to share with all of you. Adventure Awaits!
P.S. Happy Thanksgiving to all my friends a few days early, I can’t wait to stuff my face on Thursday!
Do you have a guess where I might be headed? 
Being a farm dog means your guard dog duties never end.
Even as darkness begins to fall Trooper always takes his watch dog post with pride.
Although the job is always a little more bearable with friends, so I’m always ready to join him for the Night’s Watch.
Well, it’s a good thing Trooper and I are already neutered!
P.S. Thanks to our pals at Glowdoggie for keeping us Night Watchdogs safe in the dark. Mention code AMMO at checkout for a $5 refund on your next order (US only)
Over the weekend Spring arrived. Although it didn’t really feel like it (hence my bundled up self on the farm in the picture above). While my first Spring adventures didn’t involve weekend hiking trips, camping, or travels, I still got to spend time with my family – which is really all the adventure I need!
From good morning kisses with my best friend Trooper on the farm…
(even when he maybe found them a bit embarrassing in front of the ponies!)
….to waiting for mom to finish painting my basement playroom….
…and even napping on the couch after farm chores…
…the best part of every adventure is getting to share it with the ones I love!
I’m looking forward to many more “adventures” this year. How about you?
As barn dogs, there is always a lot of tasks for Trooper and I to do. And to be honest, this farm just wouldn’t run properly without us.
Trooper is always on my case to help him be a lookout. “Lookout for low flying birds” “Lookout for cars pulling down the farm driveway” “Lookout for anything suspicious and out of the ordinary”
I on the other hand usually have my own ideas about what we should be actually looking out for.
What about “Lookout for the snakes that accidentally get baled in the hay”
Or “Lookout for yummy missed poop in the pony stalls”
“Lookout for people in boots who might mistakenly step on you”
And “Lookout for ponies who look cute, but are really thinking maybe they didn’t get enough to eat”.
So Trooper can keep a lookout for strangers who might want to brush our ponies (the horror), and whatever other boring stuff he comes up with….
…and I’ll continue to lookout for the important stuff. Because we all know that pony poop isn’t going anywhere except for my belly!
Last week I started to recap my annual camping trip with my friend, Shilah the Husky, well now I’m back to share more about all the fun we had (despite the rain). It’s too much fun to fit into one blog post, so don’t worry, there’s even more fun than this to come ahead!
One of my favorite parts about camping is getting breakfast in bed. It’s one of those few occasion where I don’t even have to get up to enjoy a big bowl of my “cereals”.
Shilah and I were excited to see that the weather had begun to clear up some, and although the rain was on and off, it wasn’t down pouring all day like it had been. Yipee!
So we broke out the fishing poles again, and had a little contest with our dad’s to see who could catch the most fish. (spoiler alert, none of us caught any!)
That’s ok though, because there was still plenty to do on our camping trip, like hiking! We didn’t get to go to any of the great hiking spots we had staked out for our trip, but we did get to take some walks around our campsite.
We even stopped to take a few selfies along the way, it’s not often I get to spend 4 whole days with my pal!
There may have even been an awkward kiss at one moment. It’s still out for debate on who kissed who.
Do you blame me though, I mean how can you not sneak a kiss when you’re hanging out with a pretty girl like Shilah!
Back at camp things were starting to heat up since it was finally dry enough to start the campfire.
As our day started to come to an end Shilah and I broke out our Glowdoggies * so we could have our own personal “flashlights” in the dark. Although Shilah questioned, “won’t the bears just be able to spot us way easier with these things on?” I told her not to worry, I packed bear spray!

As darkness really crept in the campfire started roaring!
That’s always my cue to hit the hay early, because campfires (or any fire for that matter) are not really my jam. That’s ok though, I much prefer snuggling up in the tent under my sleeping bag anyway.
I am a little sad I did miss out on the light writing fun everyone had with sparklers, but mom and dad made sure to include me in their own special way…
….it’s my name in lights! I’m famous!
Even celebrities like me can totally get down and dirty on a camping trip!
Stay tuned this week as I still have more fun to share about our adventures at a nearby lake!
Wondering where to get any of my great camping gear? Be sure to check out my gear page!
P.S. Special thanks to Shilah’s mom from Mrs. Dailey’s Classroom for sharing some of her camping photos with me (the ones not watermarked with my website)!

Happy Holiday Shopping to one and all!
Every year I host an Epic Halloween Party at my house, where all the party goers are required to dress up within a certain theme. This year’s theme was dead people, as in celebrities, historical figures, or characters that are no longer living or met their fate in a movie or tv show. As you already know, I dressed up as the American Icon, Evel Knievel.
Dad decided to dress as Bernie from Weekend at Bernie’s and Mom was Ellie from Up.
One of these years we keep saying we’ll all dress up as a group costume – maybe next year will be the year!
I was really excited when my best friend Trooper showed up to my party though, dressed as the equally as famous, Rin Tin Tin.
Well before my time, I did have to google a photo of him – but he sounded like a pretty cool dog!
And just like most dogs, Mr. Rin Tin Tin had a thing for Evel Knievel helmets – mostly because my head resembled one great big tennis ball!
You know it’s going to be a good party when Rin Tin Tin and Evel Knievel have a wrestling match before it even gets started!
My party ended up being a smashing success – even if I did have to wait in the refreshment line exceptionally long!
And by the end of the night, this Evel Knievel was pooped! I better rest up though, because it will be time for my annual Halloween Party again before I know it!
It’s that time of year when the sun sets earlier, the leaves change a pretty color, and you have to bundle up a little more on the farm! Here’s a fun little collection of photos from my recent fall fun around the farm.
Don’t you just want to jump in a great big pile of leaves and sip hot chocolate now? (well in my case just burrow under my favorite warm blanket!)
Last year I shared a collection of what I packed for a summer camping trip to the beach with my pal Shilah the Husky. Well this year I’m back to share my new packing list for a camping trip to the mountains that I’m taking with Shilah this upcoming weekend!
While I tend to pack a lot of the same things each time I head on a camping trip – there are a few things extra that I throw in when headed to the mountains (where I plan to do some hiking and water-related activities).
So here’s a list of a few of the things I plan to pack this weekend:
Ammo’s must-have Mountain Camping Gear:
I’m very much looking forward to doing a bit of this soon….
So what do you think? Anything I’m forgetting to pack?

You might remember my gal pal Shilah the Husky. You might also remember that back in October Shilah and I had a little photoshoot in the park with our Glowdoggie Led Collars. Well Shilah and I are back again to share these great collars with you – and we also have a super fun giveaway too!
Glowdoggie makes one of my all time favorite products, led lighted dog collars designed to keep us pets safe in the dark!
Battery operated, waterproof and durable, Shilah and I wear our collars whenever we are out in the dark.
Making dogs visible to cars on walks and making it easy to find your pet at night in their own backyard, I can’t say enough good things about these collars.
Mom always keeps one in our car for me, because you never know when you might need it! Another great thing about these collars is that there is no need for charging them, or plugging them in, or even flipping on a switch. You simply hang the collars upright (like on a doorknob) for them to turn off and they immediately light up when you put them on your dogs neck.
So if you’re looking for something sparkly and fun for your pup’s stocking this year I highly recommend stuffing it with a Glowdoggie! You won’t regret it!
And now for the best part…..
