Thats right, Ammo the Dachshund and Minnow appeared on Animal Planet&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/animal.discovery.com\/tv\/americas-cutest-dog\/\" target=\"_blank\">America&#8217;s Cutest Dogs<\/a> clip show on Saturday, October 24th. They weren&#8217;t one of the main videos &#8211; but a short clip of them showed up in the &#8220;Odd Couples&#8221; section. The coolest thing about it is that I didn&#8217;t even know that they had made the show. In the beginning of the summer I received an e-mail from Animal Planet&#8217;s casting director mentioning that they had come across my videos of Ammo and Minnow playing on youtube. They asked if I would consider submitting them to be considered for the show. Of course I agreed (how cool would that be) &#8211; they came back to me a few months later and asked if I would sign some release forms &#8211; which had me thinking they were really going to use the clips. But after several more months of not hearing anything I assumed they decided to go a different direction. That is until I got a facebook message from a friend who said she was watching the show and saw a clip of my boys on the show.<\/p>\n<p>When I got the message I of course rushed to the tv to try to record a re-run of the episode. Thankfully it was playing again and I was able to catch all the action. Neat to think that even though it was a small clip someone still recognized them on the show. Anyway &#8211; without further ado&#8230;here is the clip as seen on the show followed by the full original video that I took of them.<\/p>\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/CKiNFyAlKRk?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9FOrda1pTjc?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<p>Pretty cool.
