Cassie Does More Field Work

Ypu can't believe the best day of my life happened.  Foxxy and I went to play retrieve again.  Foxxy shakes and shakes because she is so excited.  Anyway the best part is my BFF Zoey was there and afer we got our bumpers we got to play and we love each other and are so cute.  Everyone thinks so.  Sometimmes I wish Zoey lived with me so we could play all day.  Everyone I know was there - the dog Daisy who says she is a champion, but I think she is a golden retriever and also crazy old Larkin.  All of Zoey's family was there, too.

Cassie At Another Dog Show

The next adventure was another long car ride to another dog show.  This was different because Foxxy and I both went, and some lady handled me.  She made me stand still, run aroundin a circle, etc., etc.  That is really boring and I don't want to talk about it anymore. But guess what happened - I saw Henry (my dad!) and Eddie (my grandpa!)

Cassie Goes On Vacation

We all went on a long, long car ride to a lake.  We stayed a week and went swimming every day.  I liked to swim on top of my mom and try to drown her.  The old man got in the water and I think he tried to drown me with a paddle maybe.  The house where we stayed was fun to run in. The old man's boat got a hole in it, so we couldn't get in it.

I am in another class now.  This one we stand, run around in a circle, stand, run around, stand - boring!

We went in the car with my friend Daisy.  She is a lot older than me and she said she does lots of stand, run around in a circle, stand  - repeat.  She said she is a champion.  Okay - whatever - she just looks like me - a golden retriever.  I found out we were going to a dog show, and I did that thing where I stand, let someone put their fingers in my mouth, run around in a circle business.  The best part was after we had our pictures taken with three foxes! The old man laughed and laughed when he saw the picture of the old lady with me but I was cute of course.

Cassie Goes Dock Diving

This weekend we did something that was probably the MOST fun thing I ever did in my life.  We went to a farm (I think) where we met a whole lot of friends of the old man and old lady.  My buddy Craig (maybe he is my brother or the old people' son) went, too.  We saw Foxxy jump off a  large platform into the water after a bumper. I really wanted to try that.  Foxxy was shaking all over she was so excited.  They took me to a baby size version and I did go in the water but when I saw Foxxy I wanted to do the big dock diving like her.  So the old lady took me up on the big dock, and I got to jump in after a bumper just like Foxxy!  It was SO much fun!  I also saw Cookie Joan and my BFF Zoey.  Zoey wasn't allowed to go dock diving so she didn't have fun. I just wanted to do it again and again, but they put me in the X-pen.  So I just jumped out of the X-pen but Craig caught me.

I forgot to tell about my performance class.  I went to it for a long time, but I did not become a performer like my dad.  They say my dad Henry has been in the TV and that he dances.  The old lady tries to get me to dance.  Dock diving is more fun.  For my class I learned to be good in my crate, to do shadow handling, and enter a room properly which apparently is NOT to push people over to be first! Walk a plank.  Walk a ladder. Balance on a wobble board.  Stay (LOL) and touch (what?).  That's what I learned.  I also saw the world's smaillest dog and the world's largest dog.  They were in my class.

Foxxy and I went to play field retriever again.  Foxxy went in the water before she was supposed to so she did bad.  I did good and got my bumpers so I got a 3rd place in Pee Wee's.  I don't think I Pee's or Wee'd but maybe you don't have to Pee to get a ribbon.

Cassie At Her First Breed Show

Another new adventure!  (I have done so many new things!) We went to my first breed show.  I was the only one in my class.  I thoought it was boring.  Someone told the old lady to make it fun for me.  She didn't~  I moved around while the judge was poking around on me.  We stayed in a motel and I saw some really big dogs there.  I also saw horses near the motel. After that we went out in the country. We walkw=ed around a pond in some really tall grass.  They wouldn't let me go swimming.  They said I might live there some day.

I do the funnest thing ever.  I can jump straight up off the floor into the chari where the old lady sits.  It is so funny because she screams loud.

Today Foxxy and I went to the field practice place.  My BFF Zoey was there.  We all went swimming to get bumpers. I like to swim.  Foxxy is obsessed with swimming.  She doesn't seem like an old dog.
