Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol 12

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol. 12

Even though I’m on a bit of a blogging vacation, I just couldn’t in good conscience leave without sharing the very last monthly update for my little sister now that she’s officially 1 year old!

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol. 12

On August 7th my sister celebrated an entire year of life, and it’s hard to believe that it’s been an entire year since she changed my life completely.

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol. 12

Not gonna lie, it was a big adjustment at first, but I’m really starting to enjoy the sweet hugs my sister gives me and our night time tug-of-war ritual.

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol. 12

Some days are tougher than others…

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol. 12

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol. 12

…but at the end of the day she’s my very biggest fan, and I can’t imagine my life without her now.

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol. 12

I have a feeling that my days of princess dress-up and Disney movies are just around the corner. And I’m totally ready!

Happy Birthday Baby P! I love you more everyday! xoxo, Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity

P.S. I’m back to vacation mode, but I’m sure you’ll see me pop in here and there with an update. Be sure to follow me on Instagram and Facebook to keep up with my daily adventures, as my blog posts will be sparse for the time being.

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol. 6

I can hardly believe that it’s been 1/2 a year since Baby P was born! She’s growing up much too fast!

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: vol. 6

While she’s now sitting up and eating real foods, and even attempting to crawl a little….there are some things that haven’t changed one bit…

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: vol. 6

…and that’s her love for her favorite puppy in the whole wide world, me! (She’s not even embarrassed to kiss me in front of the camera!) In fact she loves me so much that everytime she sees me I get greeted with a high pitched excited squeal. That or maybe she thinks my name is Aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: vol. 6

We’re both already planning all of our Spring and Summer adventures…especially once she starts walking and I can show her all of my favorite groundhog holes. So much to do, so little time.

Happy 6 months Baby P! I’m so glad I get to be by your side while you grow up! Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity

Easter Treats + A Giveaway

Easter Treats + A Giveaway with Martha Stewart Pets

When suddenly mom put this pink bunny suit on me I knew something was up (although to be fair, mom does like to dress me up on a regular basis).

Easter Treats + A Giveaway with Martha Stewart Pets

But this time, this time was different, because it’s almost EASTER! And since I already had my very own bunny suit from Martha Stewart Pets®, I figured I might as well put it to good use. What better way to use a pink bunny suit than to BE the Easter Bunny…I mean how hard can it really be?

Easter Treats + A Giveaway with Martha Stewart Pets

So I hopped on over to Petsmart® and filled a basket full of Easter goodies from the Martha Stewart Pets Spring Line.

Then I did what any other dog dressed as a bunny would do….I scarfed some carrots (you know, for fuel and all)……

Easter Treats + A Giveaway with Martha Stewart Pets

….and dove head first into my Easter basket filled of goodies!

Easter Treats + A Giveaway with Martha Stewart Pets

Just as I was getting into the swing of things with my new toys, mom reminded me that the real Easter Bunny wouldn’t keep all the toys for himself. Instead he would share them with all the other good little dogs out there.

Gulp. She was right. What had I become?

And when the bunnies start to come out to play there are lots of smells in my backyard.

Supplies:

Valentine's Day DIY Flirt Pole - interactive dog toy // Ammo the Dachshund

Step One: If you want your flirt pole to be extra colorful you may want to paint it. I painted mine to have a silvery finish.

Step Two: Once your paint is dry twist a screw eye into one end of it.

Glowdoggie Led Dog Collar Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

You might remember my gal pal Shilah the Husky. You might also remember that back in October Shilah and I had a little photoshoot in the park with our Glowdoggie Led Collars. Well Shilah and I are back again to share these great collars with you – and we also have a super fun giveaway too!

Glowdoggie Led Dog Collar Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Glowdoggie makes one of my all time favorite products, led lighted dog collars designed to keep us pets safe in the dark!

Making dogs visible to cars on walks and making it easy to find your pet at night in their own backyard, I can’t say enough good things about these collars.

Glowdoggie Led Dog Collar Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Mom always keeps one in our car for me, because you never know when you might need it! Another great thing about these collars is that there is no need for charging them, or plugging them in, or even flipping on a switch. You simply hang the collars upright (like on a doorknob) for them to turn off and they immediately light up when you put them on your dogs neck.
