New Dachshund Greeting Cards

Posted on January 8, 2014 by Ammo

Just before the end of the year my mom helped me put together a bunch of new greeting cards featuring photographs that she’s taken of me over the past few months.

Well now that they have come back from the printers, I’ve added them to my online etsy shop, Flying Hero!

Afternoon Shopping

Shop Dog // Work // Ammo the Dachshund

So you may have noticed that my post was a little later than normal today. I blame it on my mom. Because while I’m laying around the shop looking like this today, she’s too busy with work to help me on the computer! I guess I could help, but it’s so hard to when all I want to do is lay like this!

So to help with your inevitable afternoon boredom (which I’m sure you have by now), I’ve rounded up a few of my favorite things from my shop so you can go shopping! Because the must have cure for being bored – is online shopping!

2013 New Year Goals

Posted on December 31, 2012 by Ammo

In keeping up with my yearly tradition I’ve decided to take a look back over the goals I made for myself last year to see how I did! I’ve also come up with a new list of goals for 2013 that will hopefully keep me on my toes!

My 2012 Goals:

1. Learn a new trick with my favorite pony, Minnow.

Ok, so I can’t recall a SPECIFIC trick I learned with Minnow this past year, but I did star in our brand-new Painting Pony DVD with him. And I had a super fun super hero shoot with Minnow this summer.

2. Compete in my first agility trial or take an agility class with a new club.

While I’m not quite ready for my first agility trial just yet, I have been taking agility classes since the spring. I’m hoping I might be ready for a trial sometime next year.

3. Make more home movies, featuring me!

I’m happy to report that I’ve created lots of new video footage this year (over 50 videos on my youtube channel!), and I even landed on two national television spots at the end of this year (which I’ll be sharing all the details on the blog soon). And if you want to catch my biggest performance of the year you can check out my new DVD HERE!

4. Get more creative with my costumes.

I’m happy to say I’ve dressed up more this year than any other year! You might recall my pilot’s outfit when I went flying, my super cool Halloween costume as Wile E. Coyote, and even my dapper Holiday outfit for this year.

5. Master some new tricks and share them on the blog.

I started a new feature on the blog this year called Let’s Get Tricky! I also added a few new tricks to my repertoire and I’m hoping to continue the trend in 2013.

6. Take pictures every month for my 2013 Calendar!

So I may not have specifically set out to take photos for my calendar every month, I did rack up quite a lot of space on Mom’s hard-drive with my thousands of photos from this year.

7. Make more DIY projects.

I definitely got my DIY on this year! I came up with over 10 great DIY projects this year, including my Birthday Bandana, a Dipped Yellow Chair, and even a Pet First Aid Kit.

8. Paint more.

Painting may have taken a bit of a backseat this year, but that didn’t stop me from getting created. I opened up my very own Etsy Shop, Flying Hero, to sell my greeting cards, calendars and more – many of which have helped raise money for animal rescues!

9. Dig more holes in the backyard.

You know I got this one covered!

10. Smile everyday!

How can you not smile when you’re having this much fun!

So moving on to the upcoming year, I can’t wait to start 2013 off with a bang!

2013 Goals:

Create some more greeting card designs for my Flying Hero Etsy Shop
Master the weave poles for my agility classes
Compete in an agility trial
Learn a performance that I can perform on my own at events
Make every day count!

So what about you? What are your goals for 2013?

Don’t forget to start 2013 off right, check out my Calendar available for purchase HERE! Hurry, because I only have a few copies left!

Shop Update: Dachshund Holiday Greeting Cards

Posted on November 13, 2012 by Ammo

Every year it’s tradition for Mom to help me make a Holiday greeting card to send to our friends and family. Last year I decided to spread the cheer to everyone and made my cards available to the public. So since Christmas is just around the corner I decided it was high time I revealed my 2012 Holiday Card Design…

Ammo the Dachshund 2012 Holiday Greeting Card available in the Flying Hero Etsy Shop!

And what’s even more fantastic is that I’m going to be donating 2% of all the proceeds from my 2012 cards to the Main Line Animal Rescue!

My 2011 Holiday Card Design is still available for purchase in my Etsy Shop too….

I’m sure both designs will make your friends and family smile!

The making of my 2012 Holiday card was quite involved, but I promise to show you some more behind-the-scenese photos as we get a bit closer to Christmas.
