Even Heroes aren’t Invincible

Yes, it’s true, I may be a super hero but even heroes have accidents and over the weekend I had a little accident myself on the farm. See I was having a grand time playing chase with my pal Trooper when something punctured my side. I’m not sure if it was Trooper’s claw, or perhaps a fence board – on account of I was running way too fast to know for sure.

Regardless it definitely hurt!

Dad brought some medical supplies from home out to the farm so I could get my boo boo doctored up (on account of it was Sunday and my vet’s office wasn’t  open…not to mention it wasn’t a “medical emergency” per say….I’m a pretty tough dude).

I tried to be brave while I was bandaged up, but I was more upset that fun time with Trooper for the day was over.

I had to spend the rest of my day resting quietly in the car while mom did the farmwork without me, but upon returning home activities resumed pretty much as normal – even if I did look like I was a victim of a magician’s saw act gone wrong.

Mom says we’ll be taking a trip to the vet today, just to be sure my wound is healing properly…..my paws are crossed they still let me go to agility this afternoon. I can’t wait to tell my agility friends about my battle wound!

I’ll be sure to update all my fans on my facebook page as to the status of my Dr’s visit, but have no fear, I’m sure I’ll be back to my regular adventures in no time!

UPDATE: The vet checked me over, and I didn’t even need stitches! Apparently super heroes are super awesome at healing themselves, and I even got to attend my agility class!Ammo the Dachshund

First thing Christmas morning I headed out the farm to visit my FAVORITE pony friends.

I didn’t come empty handed either, I brought them some carrots – the perfect Christmas morning treat.

And just to be sure they were PERFECT, I taste tested a few myself….only the best for my pony pals.

Blitz agreed that they were a-OK.

The ponies were also super excited because Santa had visited the farm too. Blitz told me he even got Blitzen’s autograph, and I’m so super jealous!

Minnow was ALMOST as skilled as me at opening his Christmas present from Santa.

Boomerang said that I could help him open his Christmas present, on account of all my presents were still at home. Isn’t he sweet?

The Holidays are Coming

Yes, I know, we haven’t even had Turkey Day yet and already there are Christmas wreaths out, holiday music playing and the smell of pine everywhere.

Even though it does seem a tad bit early for the Holiday Season Fanfare, when you work in a retail shop like I do it’s hard not to be prepared a few weeks early.

So this year I bit the bullet and broke out my Christmas scarf BEFORE Thanksgiving. Don’t judge, you know you think it’s stinkin’ cute.

I even went as far as to practice some of my Holiday looks. I think they pretty much speak for themselves…..
