West Bradford Day

West Bradford Day

A few weeks ago my mom discovered a special event that was being held in my hometown. FREE pony rides and petting zoo is pretty much all you had to say to get my sister and I super excited!

First thing we did was head straight to the petting zoo. Unfortunately I had to wait outside, because apparently animals don’t like to be pet by other animals (weird right?).

While I waited patiently outside for my sister to get her fill of donkeys, ducks, chickens, goats, llamas, and more…I noticed this fluffy rock giving me the stink eye something fierce.

Yea, I’m pretty sure he wanted me dead. So needless to say I didn’t stick around too long to find out! (he must have been the black sheep of the bunch!)

Next we headed over to the pony rides. While waiting in line I started my own petting zoo. At least I don’t give the stink eye, which I’m pretty sure all the children greatly appreciated.

My favorite part though…..was the firefighter obstacle course. Seriously how cool is that! Only downside is that the fireman forgot to pack their dachshund sized fire fighting gear. Go figure.

At least I got to pose with the truck! I’m pretty sure I now want to be a firefighter when I grow up. (or at the very least master that obstacle course next year!!)

What do you think, would I make a good firefighter? Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity

Caramel Apples and Goats

With fall rolling in I took my first annual trip of the season to Highland Orchards.

I love sniffing the goats at the orchard, but truth be told, I’m quite happy that there is a fence between us at all times. Safety first!

But the real treat this time was that mom’s first cousin once removed (whatever that means) tagged along with us.

Kids are good for one thing in a dog’s world…..and that’s dropping food!

You can bet I warned Mr. Goat that any food dropped was mine, and mine alone. Don’t worry though, I was very friendly and wagged my tail when I told him. I’m pretty sure he got the message.

Apple of my Eye

Every year when Autumn rolls around I take the obligatory trip to Highland Orchards, home of the cider donut, pumpkin picking, fresh apples, canned preserves and goats!

Like most of the children there I humored my parents with having my photo taken in the fall cutouts.

But we all know there is really only one reason to take a trip to Highland Orchards (besides a bite of cider doughnut)…

…the goats!! Now last year the goats gave me the stink eye, so I was careful to be a bit weary the second time around.

I have to admit those fellows are starting to grow on me, even with their sharp pointy horns.

Although I was still somewhat relieved that there was a fence between me and them, after all I was sorely outnumbered.

I plan to visit the Highland Orchard goats again, if only to get on their good side, because Mom says we may be getting goats on the farm in the near future. Yikes! Ammo the Dachshund

Goat Monster

On a recent trip to Highland Orchards I met some dogs goats monsters.

Mom reminded me that I have met goats before when I went to the corn maze last year.

True, maybe I had seen goats before, but these were not the SAME goats.

I know, because I sniffed them.

I mean they smelled friendly enough I guess.

But friendly or not, I quickly realized there was like a bazillion of them….and only one of me. Yikes!

I may have spent the rest of the day looking over my shoulder – you never know when a group of goats monsters might sneak up behind you!
