Do you buy Christmas presents for your dogs? We never used to but it brings them such joy to be included that we do now. Cassius knows he heard a squeaker somewhere! He was running around looking for the squeaky toy when this photo was taken.

Cassius also got a new jolly ball for Christmas. They are actually sold for horses but when you find a toy that might hold up to the jaws of steel, you go for it.

Cassius is a good sport so let’s Zeke have a turn with his new toy.

Baxter got, what else? A new Frisbee!

Shelby, never one to lay down on the job, supervises all the holiday proceedings and goings on.

Nikki mostly stays out of the way. When the big dogs are excited, things can get crazy. A petite girl could get run over!

And Zeke the wonder dog is happy to be a part of it all. He is a very nice dog. He joins in playing and chasing toys with our crew and barely bats an eye. No snarling or altercations, just smiles all around.
