Tree-climbing dog confuses child

Have you ever seen a dog climb a tree? I hadn't either until Mia came to live with us.

We have several large trees in our backyard, and one of them has a low branch, about 3 feet off the ground. Mia is a small dog, she is part Corgy, and weighs probably less than my 2 year old! She is very athletic and loves jumping. Well, one day I was watching her outside, and all of a sudden, she runs and jumps and lands IN the tree! Now she has progressed to climing up the limb and even attempted to jump up higher in the tree!

This has posed a small problem for Gabbie however, after all, isn't it supposed to be cats that climb trees? She has told me how the "doggy jump, tree. Arf, arf, meow, meow." Kind of her version of telling me that our doggy is silly and acts like a cat! Hey do you think we could win some money with a home video of this?
