Maggie, It's Cold Outside

It was 25 degrees this morning. That may seem like nothing to people in other parts of the world, but here in Northern California, that's darn cold. On Thursdays, we go to the park early, around 7am, because Cabana's best friend, Maggie, the English Springer Spaniel, comes early. The sun is barely coming up, and there's a layer of frost on the grass.

Cabana sees Maggie's car pull up. While Maggie's owner may be the one actually driving the car, Maggie's owner will tell you herself--the car belongs to Maggie.

Some people may not believe that dogs are capable of having best friends. But they'd change their minds after watching Cabana and Maggie play.

The way Cabana races over to greet Maggie every morning is different from the way she greets other dogs. It's a combination of joy and familiarity, mixed with mischievous pounce and sometimes surprise attack.

They are so in sync, mimicking each others' moves and play styles, but also very respectful, checking in and making sure the other one is having fun.

Sure, it's cold and it's early, but it's worth it.

Of course dogs can have best friends! Sheesh, what kind of weird humans are you talking to?! I'm glad Cabana found her BFF.

Cabana seems to happy with her active social life and cold! You are right that sounds a little balmy for around here but its all what you are used to, too! Kendall is home thinking our temps are warm as where he is at school its about 15 degrees colder - poor boy!

That's so sweet that Cabana has a bestie! Bella definitely plays with some dogs better than others.

It's so nice to have a best friend that meets you for play dates! PS, when there is frost on the grass that means it's cold! :)
