New Vegetable Garden

Ammo the Dachshund's Vegetable Garden

Every year I like to plant a vegetable garden. After last year’s winter my usual veggie spot was looking a bit sad. Nothing a little gardening re-model couldn’t fix though!

My handy Dad got to work right away with a new plan so mom and I don’t have to pull weeds anymore…woohoo! Mom of course had to sit this one out, since apparently heavy lifting is frowned upon when you’re growing a baby.

Eventually (thanks to dad’s hard work) my new garden boxes started to take shape and it was time to get the dirt! (my favorite part)

I tagged along to help mom and dad pick up garden soil so my plants could grow big and strong.

While dad shoveled all the dirt into the garden boxes I stood guard to make sure no critters got in the way of our hard work. It’s pretty much a full time job.

The soil went in and I could hardly wait to get my plants into the ground. I’ve been saving bits of kibble all year to plant my kibble tree!

With soil in the boxes the garden was looking mostly finished….now it was time to plant!

After mom picked up some plant starts at the store I helped put everything into the boxes. Now all we have to do is wait for them to grow big and strong, and keep the critters from eating them! Don’t worry though, I know just the dog for the job!

Working Smarter

As you may know, I’ve got a 9-5 job working at my mom’s custom frame shop. While I’d totally love to not have to work at all….we all know the business would totally fall apart without me.

My mom always says we need to work smarter not harder, so that we have more time for the adventures that we love. (and well, so I have more time to play fetch and practice my dog agility at work).

So I picked up a little trick on my own to help us get done our work faster…

I’ve started grabbing the printouts when they come out of the printer and bringing them to mom. And if you visit my shop and you’re lucky, maybe I’ll even bring you your receipt (mom says I still need to practice not drooling on the paper first before I master that one).

Yea, it’s nice to know my hardworking efforts are finally being appreciated around here! Now can we quit working and have a little fun?

Santa’s Little Helper

It’s crunch time for me and my mom this week at the shop, so I’ve got my very best helper hat on and I’m busy busy helping mom finish up all the picture framing orders.

So I don’t have a fun video, or a long adventure post, or even any pictures of me on the farm to share today…..just little old me in my very best helper hat.

It’s a very important job being a helper dog, and I hope you’ll understand that today all my helper duties are being used at the shop!

Until my next adventure that is! See you soon. xoxo, Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity
