When Aeida the Staffy joined her mom, Nicole Ackehurst’s, home in Adelaide, Australia, she became instant best friends with Cashew, the dog next door.
From the first time they met, they have been inseparable.
They spent so much time together every day that their parents decided to install a doggy door between their two houses. Now, Aeida and Cashew can move between each other’s house easily.
They don’t go anywhere anyway except each other’s house so it just made sense for their parents to create an easier for them to see each other.
This also made it easier for Aeida to play with Cashew’s human brothers and sisters, too, when she’s at their house.
“Aeida is very friendly and loving. She really just loves everyone and anything — especially our neighbors’ children,” Nicole told The Dodo.
When Aeida goes missing, her parents don’t need to worry. They know she’s just at Cashew’s house playing with them. And even when they couldn’t find Aeida during the evening, they’re still okay because they know where she was.
She loved playing with Cashew and the human kids all the time so they know she’s only there, playing with them.
That’s what they believed until Nicole’s neighbor sent her a photo. The photo showed Nicole what Aeida did in their home during the evening when she goes missing.
“Our neighbors sent us a Facebook message with Aeida sitting in their bathtub,” Nicole said. “We believe that was the first time she had done it.”
Apparently, Aeida has been going to the neighbor’s house at night. At the neighbor’s house, she had been taking a bath with her favorite kids. In fact, she’d jump into the bath first before the children and stay with them until it’s done.
And do you know what’s funny about this?
Aeida hates taking baths!
When her favorite kids are taking the bath with her, then she’s okay with taking baths. And, in fact, it’s now become one of her favorite things to do.
“She will join them at bath time, every chance she gets,” Nicole said.
Well, now, apparently, Aeida and Cashew have become a big and permanent part of each other’s lives that they need to be involved in all aspects.
And that includes Aeida being part of the children’s bath time, too.
“I’m pretty sure our neighbors love having her over, just as we love having Cashew come over too,” Nicole shared with The Dodo.
It’s a good thing Aeida and Cashew’s parents are used to them being in one house or another. Because it looks like the friendship between the two dogs will keep them all connected forever.
“Aeida and Cashew are great friends, and have such a strong bond. They’re both considered great parts of our families.”
