A Special Birthday for Two Friends at Dallas Zoo

A Cheetah at the Dallas Zoo celebrated his second birthday with a special friend.

"Winspear" the Cheetah and "Amani" the Labrador turned two-years-old Saturday at the Dallas Zoo. The two furry friends began their birthday festivities at 9:30 a.m. with a meaty cake and cheers from the crowd.

The two unlikely companions have been together since they were three months old, and Amani helps comfort the shy Winspear, according to zookeepers.
