Luna has discovered sky raisins. And is surprisingly good at...herding them. Just a good reminder that old dogs can learn new tricks.

Hello 40! I never expected to make it to half this age, honestly. But, in those "bonus years", I've nurtured a loving family, a circle of amazing friends, and have had experiences that 20 year old me would have never believed possible. I'm excited for the next 20— bring it on!

Guess who went scavenging on her walk today? And yes, she carried this for the rest of the walk and right up into the house before we could take it away from her. (Tennis balls hurt her teeth; she has uncountably many gentler versions inside.) #DogsOfBluesky
