I love looking back on these baby photos — this is little Lupine.
Jennifer sends us this Happy Birthday Update:
“I can’t believe the puppies are four already. It makes me happy and sad. Sad because there is always a little sadness, for me, in watching our Berners age even a little bit. Happy because, particularly with Lupine, I’ve gotten to watch her blossom (really no pun intended for the Wildflowers :) into a more confident and playful dog and a master at her unique way of keeping life fun.
She may not be out in the competitive dog world, but she is has a major role in our lives and I think she’s really happy here!
Lupine has become much more confident on walks and with new people.
She still doesn’t really appreciate the presence of any unknown dogs in her life. But I think that’s very reasonable given that I welcome new dogs, but not unknown people :)
She loves to head to the mountains to hike and hang around a campfire and she loves to go for walks on all the routes we’ve mapped out that don’t have loose dogs.
But her passion in life appears to be honing her ability to steal shoes right from under our noses and creating shoe piles in the house or somewhere in the yard and then watching silently as we find the piles. Her favorite things seems to be the moment that we make a big production out of finding the piles and pretending to be so upset about it.
Her other favorite things are giving hugs and rolling in the freshly mowed grass or any kind of poop she can find.”
Sparkle says, “💩?! Clearly, we are related!”
Thank you to Jennifer and family for Lupine’s perfect-for-her life and HAPPY BIRTHDAY LUPINE!
