Just thought you should know…
When you spend several hours baking a 16X 20 double layer chocolate cake and decoratively frost it with cream cheese icing…all from scratch…planning for it to serve 60 excited birthday party-goers….
…be sure that your 120 lb. labrador retriever does not know how to open the door of the room in which you have shut him.
That is all.

Ha ha ha ha!
Oh, that’s terrible! I’m sorry!
Ha ha ha ha!
Can I help you clean up the mess?
Oh how I wish you could…thanks!
I didn’t even know you had a dog.
I’m so sorry about the cake.
Well, I don’t. The dog belongs to the person whose house M’s party was at. But I couldn’t think of a succinct way to say that part of it, so I just said it as if it were my dog. Because it didn’t matter if the dog was mine or not…he ate my cake!
Oh, no!!!
It was funny after we got over the initial shock.
Oh, no!!!
Why did this post twice, once anonymously? Weird.
See Pepper laugh.
Pepper laughs because Pepper knows what it is to eat cake, I’m thinking.
Pepper is a known counter-surfer.
Pepper is a known counter-surfer.
Pepper is in cahoots with the rest of the cake-eating dogs of the world, methinks.
Heehee!
Yes, that’s the sound of me crying…heeeeeee, heeeee hee hee.
Yikes!

(still hoping we can chat :))
Me, too! We will. Soon.
My 90 pound lab/shepherd mix would (also) have been all over that. Chocolate and cream cheese being two of her favorite things. (Fortunately, most chocolate cake is not toxic to dogs — it’s dark chocolate that can be deadly.)
What did you serve in its place?
I wondered about the toxic thing.
We had plenty of bonbons and other stuff…and there was almost half a cake that the dog didn’t get to that was covered with plastic wrap. We cut three inches past where the dog could have slobbered and the brave among us still ate cake. Blegh.
I feel you pain.
I lost half a roast beef off the kitchen counter when I was infact, not very far off.
Re: I feel you pain.
It only takes a split second, doesn’t it!
Oh, dear. I’m so sorry!
Thanks! It will be a birthday to remember.
So sorry this happened, Kristy. Good thing my old Poodle wasn’t there to join the party.
There was enough for old Poodle. Plenty!
I’m sorry all your hard work went to the dogs, Kristy. 🙂

UH OH.
EEeeeeeeep!
UH OH.
EEeeeeeeep!
OMG! Poor you!
That happened with my birthday cake right before my party when I was a kid.
