Easily Clean Dirty Barn Dogs with the #WoofPouf from Absorbing + A Giveaway #sp

Trooper and I pride ourselves in being super awesome barn dogs. We take our jobs very seriously, and immerse ourselves in everything on the farm.

Easily Clean Dirty Barn Dogs with the #WoofPouf from Absorbing + A Giveaway #sp

Our favorite thing to “immerse” ourselves in on the farm……pony poop! We’re so fortunate that our farm has an abundance of it too. Did you know it’s a real delicacy in dog culture?

Easily Clean Dirty Barn Dogs with the #WoofPouf from Absorbing + A Giveaway #sp

After a day of “farm life” Trooper and I can get pretty stinky (just how we like it). Our mom’s haven’t come to appreciate the highly cultivated “barn dog scent” yet, so alas a roll in the manure pile inevitably leads to bath time.

Thanks to our new friends at Absorbine® we now have a product that makes the whole bath experience quicker so Trooper and I can get back to our farm duties faster!

Now all we had to do was wait for Boomerang to get out of the wash stall…..he always hogs all the warm water!

Mom loved how it made it easy to wash two dogs at once in the barn wash stall (since there wasn’t anywhere convenient to tie us up to) and all she needed was a hose and the Woof Pouf.

Luxury Pet Treats for Everyone + A Giveaway

Disclaimer: This post and giveaway is brought to you by Leela Ryan. All opinions are my own, and I only share products I think you and your dog will love.

Leela Ryan Luxury Dog Treats Review & Giveaway

Recently my new pal Leela Ryan (the cute pup behind the brand) sent me some of her luxury pet treats to try. These organic biscuits are made with all-natural fruits and vegetables and they’re packaged in style so that they look cute on the counter, or in my case the barn!

Leela Ryan Luxury Dog Treats Review & Giveaway

These yummy treats come in three flavors, Banana Pudding, Tartes Aux Pommes (apple pie), and Wild Berry Scones.

Leela Ryan Luxury Dog Treats Review & Giveaway

As Trooper and I took in a big breath of that delicious aroma, we had a thought. The Tartes Aux Pommes (apple pie) treats from Leela Ryan contained the exact same ingredients that our pony friends love too: Organic Oats, Organic Apples, and Cinnamon.

Leela Ryan Luxury Dog Treats Review & Giveaway

Leela Ryan Luxury Dog Treats Review & Giveaway

Our ponies loved them! And mom loved that she could carry around one set of treats for all of us.

Leela Ryan Luxury Dog Treats Review & Giveaway

These organic, all-natural, 100% made in the USA treats are something all us critters on the farm can look forward to snacking on now.

Leela Ryan Luxury Dog Treats Review & Giveaway

While the Leela Ryan brand is built around luxury, decadence, and beautiful organic treats, I hate to say it……but us boys aren’t exactly  “luxurious” when we eat cookies.

Leela Ryan Luxury Dog Treats Review & Giveaway

Leela Ryan is probably covering her eyes in embarrassment looking at these photos of Trooper and I snacking on her yummy cookies. Especially since I have drool on my nose. Sorry Leela Ryan, boys don’t know how to eat treats any other way!

Leela Ryan Luxury Dog Treats Review & Giveaway

Yup, there she is with her dis-approving look. I knew it.

You can fetch your dog some of the luxury organic pet treats from Leela Ryan (and see if you pup can eat them any daintier) from their online shop.

End of Summer Harvests + Limited Ingredient Diets for Dogs

Disclaimer: this post is brought to you by the honest kitchen. All opinions are my own, and I only share products I think you and your dogs will love.

Healthy, Limited Ingredient Diets for Dogs from the Honest Kitchen

While Trooper and I may look hot in this picture, the truth is the warm summer weather will be leaving us soon. With it we’ll have to say goodbye to our lush veggie gardens and the summertime harvests that have been so abundant this year.

Healthy, Limited Ingredient Diets for Dogs from the Honest Kitchen

Eating healthy, fresh ingredients isn’t just important for the humans, it’s important for us dogs too. While mom can’t grow everything Trooper and I need to maintain a healthy diet, I want to share with you the newest addition to my healthy diet that’s available all year round!

Healthy, Limited Ingredient Diets for Dogs from the Honest Kitchen

My friends at the Honest Kitchen are makers of all natural, human grade dehydrated dog and cat food. Their foods are produced in the USA from non-GMO produce and hormone-free meats.

Healthy, Limited Ingredient Diets for Dogs from the Honest Kitchen

One of the newest addition to their healthy food line is called BRAVE. This limited ingredient diet contains only six ingredients: MSC certified pollock, organic coconut, chickpea, celery, pumpkin, spinach, plus vitamins and minerals – which is perfect for dogs that may have allergies, or prefer a more simplified food.

Healthy, Limited Ingredient Diets for Dogs from the Honest Kitchen

Brave had a great fishy smell, which I picked up even before mom opened the shipping box it came in! And all you have to do is add water to this food to get it to puff up to a full (and filling) meal. I look forward to scarfing it down at mealtime.

Healthy, Limited Ingredient Diets for Dogs from the Honest Kitchen

While neither Trooper nor I have any food related allergies, we can certainly appreciate a simplified diet with only the healthiest of ingredients.

GPS Pet Tracker To Keep Your Dog Safe + A Giveaway

Disclaimer: This post and giveaway is brought to you by Trax and does contain some affiliate links. All opinions are my own, and I only share products I think you and your pets will love.

Trax GPS Pet Tracker to Keep Dogs Safe + A Giveaway

You might remember that at the beginning of this year I started testing out a new GPS Pet Tracker on the market to keep pets (and anything else you want) safe called Trax.

Trax GPS Pet Tracker to Keep Dogs Safe + A Giveaway

This tiny little device that gets attached to my collar has changed the way I get to enjoy time on the farm. Not to mention it keeps my mom from worrying ALL THE TIME (She’s a bit dramatic if you ask me) about what I’m doing.

Dachshund Life Struggle with Ammo the Dachshund

Now for those of you that are dachshund owners – this is a common scene I’m sure you know all too well. You trust “dachshund” to stay close, you unhook leash, dachshund takes off and pretends they can’t hear your frantic yelling, you chase dachshund down, you tie dachshund up again, no one is happy.

Trax GPS Pet Tracker to Keep Dogs Safe + A Giveaway

Now while a good recall is always a good idea, I (nor any dog) wants to listen all of the time (life is just too short for that), and being tied up 24/7 is just oh so sad. So enter the Trax GPS Tracker.

Trax Review - A GPS Tracker for Dogs // Ammo the Dachshund

With this around my neck my mom feels better about letting me roam the farm (which is not fenced) because she can check in on me any time she wants. I’m happy because I don’t have to be tied up as much, and I still get to go on my coveted hunting excursions!

Trax GPS Pet Tracker to Keep Dogs Safe + A Giveaway

Mom sets up a “geo-fence” around the areas she would like me to stay and anytime I cross the invisible boundary she gets a text to notify her and can check in to see where I’m at using the free Trax mobile app.

Trax GPS Pet Tracker to Keep Dogs Safe + A Giveaway

And guess what, it even works underground! Thanks to Trax I’m able to enjoy my time outdoors without the restrictions of a leash. If you haven’t tried it, it’s heaven!

Trax GPS Pet Tracker to Keep Dogs Safe + A Giveaway

Mom even leaves my Trax on me when I’m home alone, and it’s kinda fun to check it later to see where exactly I traveled inside the house. Now while the farmhouse is still too new to show up on the aerial view of the map, you can sort of still decipher that I only traveled to check the side doors and to my dog bed while mom was gone.

Trax GPS Pet Tracker to Keep Dogs Safe + A Giveaway

A fun little tip for all you Trax wearers out there is that since Trax is only water resistant (not waterproof), mom slips mine into one of these tiny little bags before putting it on my collar to make sure it doesn’t ever get too wet on dewy mornings or rainy days.

iron horse farm

Thanks Trax for helping set me free, and making sure I get to check EVERY SINGLE ONE of my ground hog holes!

Trax GPS Pet Tracker to Keep Dogs Safe + A Giveaway

My pal Minnow is thrilled that I can keep those pesky critters at bay so he has no scary holes to fall into when he’s playing in the pasture.

You can fetch your own Trax GPS Pet Tracker for $249 + 2 years of free service ($5/month for each additional year). Which is much cheaper than many of the comparable trackers we have researched.

Make sure you check out my full review from back in January with even more nifty features that are available when you purchase the Trax GPS Tracker.

How to Keep Your Dog Fit with a Wobble Board + A Giveaway

Disclosure: This post and giveaway is brought to you by the Dog Agility Shop. All opinions are my own and I only share products I think you and your dog will love!

Real Dogs Have Muscles! via Ammo the Dachshund

Us dogs are powerful, muscled beasts (well when we’re in proper shape), and I’ve always been one to believe that the greatest service you can do for your dog is to help them keep in shape! As hard as it is to “feel the burn”, I’ve always believed that being the ideal weight will help keep us dogs from getting injuries, health problems, and even back issues (especially important for us dachshunds). Which is also why I’m so excited to tell you about a product to help keep your pup well muscled from my friends at the Dog Agility Shop.

How to Keep Your Dog Fit with a Wobble Board + A Giveaway with the Dog Agility Shop

Introducing the Wobble Board! The Wobble Board from the Dog Agility Shop is a 22″ wide board that sits about 3.5″ off the ground.

How to Keep Your Dog Fit with a Wobble Board + A Giveaway with the Dog Agility Shop

The attached wooden ball to the underside keeps the board “wobbly”. It’s even painted with silica (sand) on the surface for added traction.

How to Keep Your Dog Fit with a Wobble Board + A Giveaway with the Dog Agility Shop

The Wobble Board has lots of great benefits for your dog:

  • Improves your dog’s reaction and control
  • Improves balance
  • Improves sensory & body awareness
  • Helps strengthen the bond with your dog through interactive positive training
  • Builds confidence in your dog or puppy
  • Can be use to introduce your dog to contacts and dog agility equipment that will move
  • Can be used to rehab after an injury (torn ACL, sprains, etc)
  • Builds muscle and strength

How to Keep Your Dog Fit with a Wobble Board + A Giveaway with the Dog Agility Shop

With Trooper as my coach, mom used some yummy treats to lure me onto the Wobble Board.

How to Keep Your Dog Fit with a Wobble Board + A Giveaway with the Dog Agility Shop

Once I was confident enough to put all 4 paws on, she used the treat to lure me around on the board to get my core really working! But to really get the full effect of how the Wobble Board works, you’ll have to watch me in action…

I’ve actually been using the Wobble Board a couple time a week, and it’s going to be great in the winter months especially when it’s a little too cold to run around on the farm. I’ll use this to keep fit indoors!

You can fetch your own Wobble Board from the Dog Agility Shop in two fun colors, Purple or Blue for $49!

Wellness TruFood Review & Giveaway

Disclaimer: This post and giveaway is brought to you by Wellness. All opinions are my own, and I only share products I think you will love!

Wellness Trufood Review & Giveaway

As you may know I’ve been thinking a lot about what I eat lately. Ok, honestly, I think about what I’m going to be eating ALL THE TIME. Last week I wrote post about how my mom chooses pet food for me to eat in my rotational diet, and I’ve even discussed the portion size I’m eating each day to keep my figure trim. Well today I wanted to share the line of dog food I recently started eating from one of my favorite companies, Wellness.

Wellness Trufood Review & Giveaway

I’ve been eating dry dog food from Wellness since I was just a puppy (and ate their puppy formula), and so has my best friend Trooper. Recently they came out with a brand new line, Wellness TruFood. TruFood uses fresh whole foods from farm, land and sea in their new treats, wet and dry dog and cat food.

Wellness Trufood Review & Giveaway

The TruFood dry dog food is packed with real ingredients and free of grain, wheat, potatoes and artificial preservatives, colors and flavors. They also slow-bake raw, whole-prey meats with grain-free fiber like peas, chickpeas and lentils which gives TruFood up to 70% more protein than similar foods.

Wellness Trufood Review & Giveaway

You can actually see some of the added veggies in Trufood, and because it’s meats are slow-baked, they caramelize, which makes it oh-so-tasty for us pups. I can attest, because mom says I started eating my meals much much faster once we switched over to TruFood.

Wellness Trufood Review & Giveaway

Before I dive into eating anything new, my mom and I always put on our analyzation glasses (we’re both farsighted) to make sure we’re choosing things that not only do I think taste good, but are healthy for me too!

Wellness Trufood Review & Giveaway

Here’s what’s inside the TruFood Dry Small Breed Formula (click image to enlarge). For more details on what I look for on the labels of my pet food, be sure to check out my recent post on Choosing the Best Dog Food.

Wellness Trufood Review & Giveaway

Trufood also comes in several baked treat formulas, like Protein Bites, and these CocoChia Bakes Cookies that I couldn’t wait to tear into.

Wellness Trufood Review & Giveaway

Wellness TruFood CocoChia treats combine whole-prey protein with antioxidant-rich superfoods, probiotics, coconut oil and chia seeds to deliver a nutritious grain-free treat.

Wellness Trufood Review & Giveaway

Hey mom, since these are so healthy for me it’s fine if I eat the whole box in one sitting right?

Ammo on the Farm

Thanks to Wellness for keeping me healthy, fit, and happy for all these years. I very much look forward to adding TruFood to my diet!

You can fetch the Wellness Trufood brand for cats and dogs from Amazon* as well as your local pet food stores. *affiliate link

Easy Frozen Dog Treats & A Giveaway

Disclaimer: This post and giveaway is brought to you by Happy Lapper. All opinions are my own, and I only share products I think you will love!

Easy Frozen Dog Treats with Happy Lapper + A Giveaway

Lets face it, Summer is H O T! Which is why my mom helped me come up with a fantastic way to help you and your pup cool off this summer. These super easy DIY Frozen Dog Treats are the perfect way to spend a hot day!

Easy Frozen Dog Treats with Happy Lapper + A Giveaway

Here’s what you’ll need to get started:

*contains affiliate links

Easy Frozen Dog Treats with Happy Lapper + A Giveaway

Now before we dive into how to make these frozen treats, I bet you’re wondering what the Happy Lapper is. It’s this super cool frozen dog treat holder designed and created for dogs by a small business owner in my home state of Pennsylvania! It makes eating frozen treats a snap for all the dogs out there, and I’ll show you just how to use it after I share how to make these 2 ingredient frozen treats.

Easy Frozen Dog Treats with Happy Lapper + A Giveaway

I decided to make 2 ingredient treats (all you need is bananas and peanut butter) because most frozen treats for dogs have yogurt in them. While yogurt is super yummy, I actually have a sensitivity to dairy (just like my mom who is lactose intolerant) so I tend to steer clear of the yogurt!

So all you need to get started is your 3 bananas and your 1/2 cup of peanut butter.

Easy Frozen Dog Treats with Happy Lapper + A Giveaway

Simply pop them in the blender and mix those two yummy things up into a fine paste! You’ll notice I was getting my treat making on outside, mostly because if you remember, my kitchen looks like this right now. But the great news is, you don’t even need a functioning kitchen to make these treats!

Easy Frozen Dog Treats with Happy Lapper + A Giveaway

Then simply dish out the mixture evenly into your cupcake liners (or whatever you choose to use) and pop them in the freezer until frozen.

Easy Frozen Dog Treats with Happy Lapper + A Giveaway

While you wait for your treats to freeze, it’s perfectly ok to lick the spoon. You can’t let any of the yumminess go to waste!

Easy Frozen Dog Treats with Happy Lapper + A Giveaway

The Happy Lapper Frozen Treat Holder was going to be a great addition to my upcoming snack. It’s also dishwasher safe and made from 100% non toxic materials.

Easy Frozen Dog Treats with Happy Lapper + A Giveaway

Once your treats are frozen you simply pop them into the Happy Lapper (I decided to leave mine in the cupcake liners, but you can also pop them out if you prefer).

Easy Frozen Dog Treats with Happy Lapper + A Giveaway

Then place the Happy Lapper on the floor for your dog to enjoy! The Happy Lapper has a non-skid base to keep it from moving around while your dog licks it. I can’t tell you how annoying it is to lick a treat and have it slide all around the house (or worse it slides so much you have to make your mom or dad hold it for you!).

Easy Frozen Dog Treats with Happy Lapper + A Giveaway

I’m such a nice guy, that I decided to share my frozen treats with my best pal Trooper.

Easy Frozen Dog Treats with Happy Lapper + A Giveaway

Trooper’s Happy Lapper got placed under the leg of a chair to keep it even more securely in place, and you could even have your mom or dad hold it down with their foot too. Mom thought this was a neat idea for dogs who might like to steal each other’s treats (of course I would NEVER do that), because you could put their treats under the leg of a chair at opposite ends of the house.

Easy Frozen Dog Treats with Happy Lapper + A Giveaway

Smarty pants Trooper also got creative and figured out how to hold his treat down himself. (I could have done that too if I had really wanted….he’s not the only smart one around here!)

Easy Frozen Dog Treats with Happy Lapper + A Giveaway

Trooper and I loved the Happy Lapper, and think it’s a great addition to your summertime frozen pet treats. You can even use it with store-bought treats*, or any homemade ones you might want to make for your pup (Pretty Fluffy has a great DIY E-Book out that has some yummy frozen treat recipes in it).
*affiliate links

You can fetch your own Happy Lapper for $12.50 and $4 flat rate shipping (no matter how many you buy!). These would make a great gift for all your dog friends this summer!

Check out the video of Happy Lapper in action.

Jones Natural Dog Chews Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

My tail is wagging, because recently I made some new friends! That’s right, the folks at Jones Natural Chews Co. are my new buddies, because they mailed me MEAT!

Jones Natural Dog Chews Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Not just any meat, a whole frisbee full of meat (their Spring Fling goodie Frisbee to be exact).

And when you get a Frisbee full of 100% USA made meat products, there is really only one thing to do….

Jones Natural Dog Chews Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Well, a party of one….but still a party! (I didn’t really want to share with anyone else anyway).

Jones Natural Dog Chews Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Jones Natural Chews only uses raw product sourced from the USA and does not use any artificial ingredients to keep their products natural. If that weren’t enough to get you drooling, they also slowly oven bake their meats to keep the bones at proper moisture levels and to produce bones that are consistent with raw bone density.

Jones Natural Dog Chews Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Jones Natural Chews also tests all of their bones for splintering. They conduct pressure tests and moisture tests to ensure the best bone strength. But it’s always best to supervise your pet when feeding them. My mom never allows me to have chews or treats when she isn’t there to watch me closely. Safety first!

Best Fitting Lifevest for Dogs & A Giveaway

Disclaimer: This post and giveaway is brought to you by Ruffwear. All opinions are my own and I only share products I think my readers will love!

Ruffwear Float Coat Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Every summer I enjoy hitting the lake, sometimes kayaking, most of the time Stand Up Paddleboarding (SUP), and always practicing water safety by wearing a floatation device. While I’ve owned several life vests over the years, I’ve finally found one that fits me PERFECTLY, the Ruffwear K-9 Float Coat.

Ruffwear Float Coat Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Being a Dachshund means that sometimes I have trouble finding harnesses, coats and even life vests that can accommodate my unique body type. Thankfully the Ruffwear Lifevest is adjustable in all the right places making it the best fitting one I’ve ever worn.

Ruffwear Float Coat Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

This floatation device has a sleek design making it slimmer fitting than any of the other vests I’ve tried, but don’t worry it’s still full of plenty of “float”!

Ruffwear Float Coat Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

This life jacket is not only a great design for Dachshunds, but it is also designed for dogs of all shapes and sizes. It even includes thoughtful details like a strong handle, optimally positioned to lift dogs out of the water, and reflective trim for enhanced visibility in or out of the water.

Ruffwear Float Coat Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

I enjoyed how the front of the vest was adjustable, but once set is easy to slip over your pup’s head, and the belly straps are also fully adjustable.

Ruffwear Float Coat Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

The design of this vest allowed me to have great free-flowing movement of my front legs, which is fantastic for swimming (and for all those occasions when you accidentally fall in!).

Ruffwear Float Coat Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

A fun little fact about me, while swimming might not be my #1 favorite thing to do, I do on occasion like to swim voluntarily, but I’ll only do so if I’m wearing a life jacket and the water is bath water warm!

Recently they sent me this made in the USA, Gooby Luxury Aqua Leather Dog Collar to test out.

Now first, let me just say, “Gooby”, what a funny name! If only that, I was super excited to wear something around my neck stamped with the name Gooby!

Aside from having a silly name this collar is made of the SOFTEST synthetic and durable lamb skin material. This is great for dogs that might have really sensitive skin – in which a traditional collar might irritate their skin.

Or, ahem, dogs like me that have “dachshund pattern baldness”. (It’s a real condition, look it up!)

Now I know what you’re probably thinking, for a farm dog like me this pretty aqua collar is going to be RUINED on the farm. But guess what, it’s actually machine washable for all those time you roll in pony poop or dead animal smell (not that I would EVER do that).
