Look who it is for Throwback Thursday! It's alumna Luna!! ❤️
Mom Chris sent us a lovely update - She’s been with us just over two years now. We have learned that while she is a dachshund, she has tendencies of a herding bred and likes to keep us all walking in the same direction, in the same areas, and noses us in the leg to get us moving. She is like a retriever and is crazy about playing with balls, especially to catch and is an amazing athlete. Luna has mastered certain commands: touch, sit, down, stay. I’m sure she knows "come", but like the typical dachshund, doesn’t (lol). She knows a lot of words and listens to everything we say, she is the most intelligent dog I have ever known.
She loves the car ride to Mud Bay to sniff and look around while we get her food, loves to go to Lowes and walk all over. We also go to the park most days and interacts positively with people, kids, and some dogs.
Luna is a bit snoopy and will look on the end table or coffee table for socks or hair rubber bands. If I need her to give up an item, the fastest way to get her buy in is to get her harness and leash out and ask her to check the mailbox with me. She’ll agree to anything for a walk and her high energy requires a lot of exercise and engagement which we give.
Luna's favorite place is the Oregon Coast and when we are out for razor clams, she LOVES to clam. She will stay on Greg’s heel all over the beach and when he pulls up the clam gun, she digs through the sand to find the clams for us. She’s a great clam hunter!!
Anyway, we love her so much and I am thankful to have her. Thank you for trusting us with Luna.
