Make sure all the dogs invited have their vaccinations!!
a place for them to drink water would probably be good

have the party on a day when the vet is open, just in case. But you know your dog's history with others. They have no sense of size so the little ones could be the ones to "start it". I had friends that refilled a fire extinguisher with water & had play wars with it(grown men!!!). I find spray bottles of tap water invaluable as a training aide so this fire extinguisher trick may be the answer to seperate a personality problem between the pooches. Kids door gates are a good way to seperate the little ones & I am sure that you have good leashes for the big ones.I would be more worried about the 2 legged partiers getting in the middle of their beloved baby's fights. I lost the use of my left hand for 7 months after "saving" my pit from a chow-chow. Set rules for the people to go by, then hope that they behave as well as the dogs!

I'd make sure the dogs have met before. Or if you can have the party in a park or beach. Somewhere neutral so none of them feel territorial.
Also make sure the owners keep them all on a leash under control until they have made friends.
An area inside to put any of the dogs that doesn't want to play nice would be useful (the laundry or bathroom).
A hose so if a fight does start you can hose them off with water. Usually works really well.
Treats, as most dogs will do almost anything for food.
Good luck. Happy birthday to your dog

Try to keep the little dogs away from your big dogs... quite a few big dogs think they are just puppies, they don't know their own strength...or size....
Oh! They should play party games. What about a pinata shaped like a cat?

Well, to start with make an obedience course a requirement to coming to your party. Then they can all sit in a long line while you take the Birthday Picture.
Oh What Fun

Seek help immediately, or if you truly want to honor your dogs birthday go to a nearby shelter and treat those pups to some new chew toys or treats!
