Ammo the Dachshund's First Baseball Game

You guys, do you believe that I’m 5 years old and I have yet to ever go to a baseball game! Well all that changed last weekend…..because this dog went to the ballpark!

Last Saturday the Wilmington Blue Rocks Stadium opened their stands to dogs of all shapes and sizes for the Dog Days of Summer – and I just couldn’t pass up the opportunity to check out my very first baseball game.

It was a beautiful night at the ballpark, and I had heard rumors that they have peanuts and cracker jacks! I’m sure you can imagine my excitement.

Mom and Dad bought me some pretty sweet seats to watch the game from – and of course I made sure to wear my fancy bow tie for the occasion.

Before I knew it, the first batter was up!

I was pretty enthralled with the game – at least after I got a chance to sniff all my neighbors properly.

Since it was Dog Day at the park, many of my neighbors in the stands were of the 4 legged variety. Like these cute Basenji pups.

I was quite intrigued when mom told me that they don’t really bark, instead they yodel! Unfortunately I didn’t hear any yodeling this day, so I’ll believe it when I hear it!

I also spotted a few other dachshunds at the park.

These girls kept checking out my bum every time I turned my back.

Of course the main reason I agreed to go to the ballpark….was to get a taste of a ballpark! Baseball hot dogs are the best after all!

So after my very first Baseball Game I’ve decided that I’m officially a baseball fan. Although I did have to share my destain when I heard that dogs aren’t allowed in the ballpark all year round! Ammo the Dachshund

What the what!? How am I supposed to get my peanuts and cracker jacks?

Has your pup ever been to a baseball game?

The Dog Friendly Shake Shack

The Dog Friendly Shake Shack // Ammo the Dachshund

On a recent excursion I found myself at the King of Prussia Mall, right around dinner time I might add. Not one to pass up an opportunity to dine out with my family, I decided to try out one of the local dog friendly restaurants.

The Shake Shack is located just outside the mall, and has establishments in other states as well. I had heard rumors that they had a dog menu, so I couldn’t wait to try it out!

I waited patiently outside under our table while mom and dad went inside to check out the menu.

There was in fact a whole section of the menu dedicated to us furry four-legged patrons!

In collaboration with one of my favorite bakeries, Bocce’s Bakery, the Shake Shack offered up some tasty biscuits and frozen treats.

But alas, they were all sold out of both when mom and dad finally made it up to the counter to order!

There was no shortage of human food though and while my parents chowed down on hot dogs, burgers, fries and shakes, I was left staring at the table like this….

Don’t worry, when you look this cute you get your fair share of burgers and fries too!

I’ll just have to hit up the Shake Shack again soon to try out their doggie menu. What’s your dog’s favorite dog friendly restaurant? Share your favorites around the country in the comments below! Ammo the Dachshund

In the Doghouse

No, I’m not grounded. Are you kidding? I’m a perfect angel ALL THE TIME, most of the time, sometimes. *wink* *wink*

Actually though, I am in the Doghouse. Doghouse Burgers that is. Yeah I know, coolest name EVER! And the best part is that Doghouse Burgers is located just across the street from my mom’s shop in town. So when I’m being an extra perfect Angel, mom sometimes takes me over there for dinner. And if I’m really really good, I even get a taste of the best burgers in town. yum yum

Is my meal ready yet?

I think I’m gonna need a doggie bag

P.S. they also have hot dogs. But don’t worry, they aren’t made from cute weiner dogs, I checked.
