Since Christmas is almost here, and I’ve got lots of goodies to wrap up for all my dog friends, I decided to use a photo of me from last year in my Santa hat. (but you can use any photo, even one that has a distracting background)

Then you can choose a wrapping paper design from Stardust Prints. They have several to choose from, and not just Christmas themed ones either.

I decided to go with the Hot Choc pattern, if only because it had an awesome polar bear on it!

Then the folks at Stardust Prints cuts the star of your photo (that’s me of course) out of it’s background, add it to your wrapping paper design, and mail you a 24 x 72-inch roll, which is enough to wrap 3-5 presents.

Winter on the Farm

Winter on the Farm // Ammo the Dachshund

Living in Eastern Pennsylvania, my buddy Trooper and I get our fair share of snowy weather during the winter months. But if you think that every time the sky lets out a little precipitation we hide inside the barn with our ponies, then you would be mistaken my friend!

Instead we run around the farm like crazy dogs trying to have as much fun in the white stuff before our moms call us back inside.

My pal Trooper goes a bit wild in the snow, trying to catch EVERY SINGLE SNOWFLAKE….

…and collecting EVERY SINGLE STICK before they get buried in the white stuff forever!

Sometimes I like to just watch him make a fool of himself. It’s quite entertaining.

Then things just start to get really silly.

Oh that Trooper.

Trooper’s silliness eventually rubs off on all my ponies too.

They seem to like to get their crazies out in the snow as well, running around and leaping into the air.

They even enjoy rolling around in the snow just like Trooper!

I must be missing something here, because I don’t know about you, but cold snow inside my jacket doesn’t sound that appealing to me!

Eventually my toes begin to get a little chilly, and it’s time to head back inside where it’s warm.

Don’t worry though, once we thaw out a bit we’ll be back out for more fun! Ammo the Dachshund

What is your dog’s favorite thing to do in the snow? Do they get all crazy about the white stuff like Trooper and my ponies?

Want to see more photos of my ponies playing in the snow? Be sure to visit their blog!

P.S. If your wondering where the jackets came from that Trooper and I are wearing… Trooper’s came from a thrift store and was likely handmade, and mine I won in a contest from the lovely pet product company, Hurtta. Underneath my outer coat I’m wearing a fleece from Ruffwear.

Where have all the furry animals gone?

As winter approaches on the farm, things can get a little desolate. The birds flew south for the winter and all my furry little farm friends are hibernating.

Some days I wander around aimlessly just hoping to find a squirrel to chase, or sit longingly at one of my groundhog holes.

And then some days lady luck shines down on me and I find a dried up worm along my travels.

We play the epic battle of eternal debate as I contemplate whether or not to bury it.

ammo the dachshund on the farm

Most times my impatient self wins out and I do what any cute little dachshund that longs for summer and furry animals to chase would do…

ammo the dachshund on the farm

…I roll on top of that stinky little worm until I too smell like stink.

It’s not as good as chasing squirrels, barking at birds, or hunting groundhogs – but at least it’s something!

Sigh. Please come back furry friends, I promise I’ll give you a head start in our never ending game of chase.

Morning

Mornings on the farm can be pretty peaceful.

I’m usually greeted at the door by my partner in crime, Spider the kitten.

Most mornings she yells at my mom to feed her – while I dart inside to figure out what new adventures there are to be had.

ammo the dachshund morning on the farm

Sometimes the only “adventure” to be had is sunbathing in the morning sun. And that’s ok.

But other days, you just itch for something more exciting. Something that makes you want to shout from the roof tops your groundhog hole. And just when you think that there might not be any “adventures” to have – the heavens shine down and your day becomes glorious again – because you found a DEAD SNAKE!

ammo the dachshund morning on the farm

And the only reasonable thing you can think of to do……

ammo the dachshund morning on the farm

……roll on top of that sucker until you smell just as stinky as it does.

ammo the dachshund morning on the farm

It really turned out to be a glorious morning on the farm, don’t you think?

But don’t worry, even if you didn’t find a “dead snake” this morning the day is not lost…..

…..because I’m more than happy to mail you my dead snake – so you can also have a glorious morning too!

Rock n’ Roll

Winter. It’s not a lot of fun. Ok wait, there are some fun parts about it. Like snow, roasting by the fire, Christmas, and hibernating.

What isn’t so fun……the need to wear multiple winter coats just to keep warm when I’m at the farm. It totally throws off my Rock n’ Roll persona when I’m reduced to waddling around everywhere I go!

I can’t even get a good roll in!
