Bubble King

I bet you had no idea that I’m a King. Oh yes, there is royalty around these parts.

Because I am the KING OF BUBBLE WRAP!

October Instagram Weekend

My Birthday weekend was a whirlwind of opening presents, hanging out at the shop, running on the farm, and curling up at home.

I’m still recovering from all the fun, but I thought I’d give you a little taste of what I’ve been up to via my Instagram photos….

Mom had her own busy weekend filled with weddings and ranch sorting with the ponies, but she still had time to give me the best Birthday ever! Thanks mom!

The Return of the Speed Bump

Ever since I initiated the “Dachshund Speed Bump” at work 2 years ago it has become a permeant fixture in the shop.

The location of the “speed bump” changes slightly from day to day, but the main idea is always the same …..

…..get as many people as possible to slow down and pet you.

I’ll admit, it does sometimes make for an exhausting work day.

The hours are long and grueling and you have to be willing to work for dog biscuits alone.

But, it helps to keep yourself limber and stretch out every hour or so during the day.

So next time you visit my shop please make sure you do not pass over the Dachshund Speed Bump….because I’m watching you! 

 

Waiting for Santa

Last year the seemingly long anticipation for Santa to come was nearly unbearable for me.

Not to mention waiting for the thrill of seeing a box sitting under the Christmas tree that was just for me. So this year I decided to have a little fun while I count the days until Santa comes.

Starting tomorrow and continuing everyday up until Christmas it’s “Ammo’s 12 Days of Christmas”. So make sure you check back everyday – because I’m so excited I can hardly wait!

Clean-up Crew

If I wasn’t a shop dog, I’d totally be able to get a job as a janitor. No crumb uneaten, no floors unlicked, I’d make the place spotless!

That’s why when the ponies are done painting for the day they call me in.

I find every little speck of dropped grain!

Boy those ponies are wasteful!

Now that my belly’s full with pony grain, I think I’ll head out to the pasture. I’m sure the ponies have left some stinky presents for me out there. They’re very thoughtful like that.

 

Check out what my pony friends painted over on the Trick Ponies Blog.

 

Shop Update and Dachshund Wares

Tuesday is my “Monday” at the shop, as mom and I reluctantly say goodbye to our weekend and head back to work. Mom’s always super busy on Tuesdays. Placing orders, answering e-mails, framing, and doing other businessey things that totally bore me. Yesterday was no exception while mom spent several hours updating the Studio’s online shop.

This is what I looked like while I waited patiently for the inevitable “break time” – which means a walk and playtime to me!

But in the end a little bit of me did shine through on the shop update…

…by way of my adorable face in a series of photobooth art! I know, I’m such the super model right?

Every shop needs a little “Dachshund” to make you smile! Don’t you think?

Shop Dog

When you visit my shop this is what you will see….

I know, sad right?

ok fine…..

you can also see this when you visit me at work……

I guess it’s not that bad. 🙂

Speed Bump

I’ve implemented a new policy at work. It’s called the Dachshund Speed Bump. Anyone traveling through the shop must slow down to pet me. This has been initiated because far too many people are entering and leaving the shop without saying hello to me. These people do not know what they are missing!

In order to get the ball rolling on this new store policy, I have strategically placed myself on the shop floor, camouflaged as a speed bump. Anyone who tries to cross without petting me will have their ankles bitten. (ok I’m lying….I don’t bite, but I WILL be thinking about it)!

That is all.
