Thanksgiving may have been last week, but that doesn’t mean I’ve recovered from it just yet! Here’s just how I celebrated this year…

Post Turkey Hangover // Thanksgiving // Ammo the Dachshund

I kicked off my Thanksgiving with a trip to the farm – and as you can see I had snow on Turkey Day!

As lovely as I find the snow, I was thankful that Trooper’s new house has heat – because I was looking forward to being warm!

Trooper spent most of the Thanksgiving morning doing this – I suspect he just didn’t want to share his new Puller toys with me….but that’s ok, I’m still thankful for my best friend – even if he doesn’t like to share!

Eventually Trooper stepped away from his Puller hoarding to share some Canidae cookies with me, YUM!

And I had an obligatory Thanksgiving potty break. 🙂

Now even though we didn’t have a Thanksgiving meal at Trooper’s new house (as there is still lots of construction to be done), that didn’t stop me from hanging around in the kitchen.

Because regardless of wether there is food or not, the kitchen is where you’re supposed to be on Thanksgiving day!

Before I knew it though it was time to wave goodbye to my ponies and head off on my next Thanksgiving adventure.

At Mom Mom & Pop Pop’s house I started where I had left off at the farm….hanging around the kitchen.

Only this time there was an actual turkey!

Thanksgiving should be renamed “Torture Dogs with a Big Plate of Meat Day”, because it is TORTURE!

And even though I didn’t get to have more than a bite or two of turkey, I did get to enjoy my own feast complete with doggie stew that came with my Barkbox this month!

It comes at no surprise that my post turkey day self looked like this. But boy was it a good day with my family!

P.S. Don’t forget there is still time to order one of my Adventure Awaits T-shirts for Christmas and to benefit the Coast to Coast Dachshund Rescue! Hurry before it’s too late!

Puller Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Recently I got the chance to test a product for dogs that is designed to promote physical exercise.

Puller Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Puller is a training device made up of two foam rings that encourages physical exercise, helps dogs to relieve stress, and improves overall physical shape and muscle development.

Now I like to think I keep a pretty sleek figure myself, but there is always ways to improve!

Puller claims that with 3 simple exercises for 20 minutes a day your dog can get the equivalent of a 2 mile intensive run or 2 hours of exhausting exercise (like playing fetch).

So Trooper and I decided to take Puller out to the farm for a little exercise.

The 3 exercises that Puller promotes is running, jumping, and pulling.

Trooper and I both enjoyed getting in some physical activity with Puller. We also hear the Puller floats (although we haven’t had a chance to test it), and it’s foam material is nice and soft on our teeth.

And it’s because of the foam material that Puller is not designed to be a toy you leave for your dog to play with on their own, but a device to help you keep your pup fit and active with you.

So to get some inspiration for our next workout, Trooper and I checked out this Puller video with TreT….

After watching that Trooper and I figured, hey, we can do that….so we shot our own Puller video…

Yeah, I think we might need a little more practice before we’re as coordinated with Puller as TreT – but at least we got a good workout trying.

Well, despite our lack of coordination, Trooper and I agree that Puller is a fun device to get us excited about “working out”. Trooper especially got very excited when he saw Puller come out. I preferred to play with my Puller in my basement at home with mom and dad – it’s always been my “workout” room where I spend a lot of time in the winter burning calories and getting some physical exercise in when it’s too cold outside.

So if you want to get your best friend some exercise too, you can fetch your own Puller in standard or mini size from Collar and also on Amazon.

And now for the best part…..
