A Birthday Party & Tree Cutting

On Saturday Beck, Cassius, & I all went to group dog training. It happened to be Jeb's birthday, one of our trainer's dogs, and rather than working most of the class we spent the time playing and eating cookies. Well I should say that Beck and I spent most of the time playing because Cassius had to go and sit in the car since he can't always play nice with the other dogs. Beck did well wearing her party hat, but it didn't last too long. She is NOT a fan of any sort of costumes and after making her wear this I kind of fear for my face while I sleep, LOL. After class since neither of the dogs were tired we all went for a nice long run. We all slept soundly.
While I was baking Christmas goodies this morning, Mike and Cassius went out to have "man camp" time in the back yard. Sadly our big tree died about a year ago and we have been slowly chopping away at it as we need fire wood. Cassius was helping by mulching the smaller branches.

Wow, Beck looks huge! She certainly doesn't seem that big in person (or is that a small GSD next to her?)

Jeb's gotta be the one in the snazzy top hat right? god bless people with hounds who give names like Jeb. Awesome!

Love the hats. Cassius probably didn't mind sitting in the car if it meant missing stupid sit/stays in a stupid row wearing stupid party hats.

Those pics of him 'helping' out are great! Was he able to haul any branches around or was it more like the kid sitting in the corner licking the wall at daycare kinda entertainment?

Beck is small, it must be the dog next to her. I think Jeb's full name is something like "Smokin' Bullet Jebadiah Blue".
Cassius actually did something funny at class. We were working on recalls and after he did his and finished he ran to the gate trying to escape, so he probably was better off in the car.
He will drag the sticks off too. I laughed so hard in response to your "kid sitting in the corner licking the wall at daycare" comment.
