This summer has gone to the dog!

We are loving our dog Cassius. He's the best dog ! He doesn't chew, he loves to play and he never keeps us up barking. We love going out back and spending time with him. He loves when Clay goes outside to play, I think he knows he can be a little more rough with Clay. He has a great time with all of us.We were just finishing up dinner when we heard a yelp come from Cassius. We went to see what happened and this is what we found. The yard was dug up.
He was playing with a baby gopher that he had dug up. Apparently this little guy bit Cassius while he was being played with.
We sat out there for at least 30 minutes filming and watching Cassius play gently with his new found friend. A few times Cassius flipped the little guy up in the air, but it was all in good fun. He was barking and playing. We were laughing so hard. Cassius was getting a big kick out of this gopher!
Like I said, this dog loves to play!
He played and played and played with his friend. Finally he got tired and let the poor thing go back in his hole. Yep, that's right, he didn't even kill it! Bad for our yard but good for Cassius, he'll get to see his friend again another day.

That is super cute. I would be laughing to. That is not something you hear everyday. I liked that story.

I agree, that's a great dog story, I think Cassius has quite the personality. The other day I left the chickens out and was gone for 4-5 hours and Sadie chased them all over, they were all hiding, but she didn't kill any of them either, just playing!!
