Let's Play

 Maggie's let's play pose. Kara on the left and Ginger on the right. Taken at Mitchell Park dog run. Wolves, coyotes and dogs strike the same posture as an invitation to play. Body language is an essential part of canine behavior.

Today (10-4-97) Maggie met her match at Mitchell Park through Ginger (in photo above on the right). Ginger doesn't have a tail. She sublimmates this loss by chasing Maggie around and play bites Maggie's tail. Sometimes Ginger's mouth is full from hair extracted from Maggie's tail. Is this tail envy? Pure puppy behavior. Properly raised (read TLC), dogs can provide cheap entertainment
