Maggie's distant cousin?

Yesterday we met a Akita-Husky mix named Matty-girl. 

She was really beautiful but extremely aloof with people. 

But Maggie being a people dog and choosy with whom she plays, 

they didn't really care much for each other.

She found a pine cone to bring home instead.

Hike in Santa Cruz

Thankfully we didn't run into any mountain lions this time.

 

 

Last weekend we enjoyed a half-day hike at Loch Lomond Recreation Area in SC. Despite the sprinkles and the shower we experienced at the end of the trail, it was a beautiful, scenic hike.
Maggie seemed to enjoy getting her paws wet in the shallow creeks we passed through.
We will definitely be returning for camping here in the summer time!

Spring is *almost* here!

It was great that Maggie and I got to enjoy some beautiful pre-spring days last week.

We are back to rain, rain, rain in the Bay Area again.

Hopefully we can enjoy some outdoor adventures soon....

The reason I get up and go to work in the morning

To see Maggie smile.

It's raining out....

Which means, very short walks and no Dogpile Dogs for you this week. Sorry!

Dogs really know how to make you feel bad for them.

Waiting for meatball scraps

Maggie lies in wait for some meatball scraps that I'm eating for breakfast.

Maggie's diet usually consists of kibble, raw/veggie, dog treats, bully stix and the occasional human food, which makes her have the 'rocket butt'.

Shiba's tummy is very sensitive.

No Ball?

 Maggie: "Your owner won't let you play ball?"
Black dog: "No, but your owner is welcome to throw the ball I put in front of her."

 Maggie met a dog whose owner had put this unfortunate sign on him: NO BALL PLEASE.

It was another fun day at Fort Funston.

Two Sheebs in da house

Maggie and Goji kept each other company while owners were busy doing their own things.

Sleepovers are always fun.

Yay!

"My best friend Goji's coming over for a sleepover this weekend!"

Maggie is very excited.
