We still need to hear from two Bright Stars but we can add those later (when I get them) — today we need to move on to the Moonshadows 🌖
We must begin by remember the two Moonshadows who are not here to celebrate turning five with their littermates: Margie and Obie, who sadly died recently of a very aggressive Lymphoma 💔 They live in our hearts and our memories.
Remember Tiny Titan from the Moonshadows? He is not so tiny anymore! Sandhano and Paul share this report of the boy who is named Pippin, which is the same as the father of the litter (who is alive and well):
“Pippin is the best hiking buddy.
Hard to believe he is going to be 5 yr. He stays close to us on hikes but does take some curiosity side sniffs ❤️
Thank you for letting us share our lives with Pippin.
Thank you, Sandhano and Paul, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY PIPPIN!!! 🎂
Jasen sends us this report about Andy:
“Andy is a happy boy always wants to do something. Most likely the most vocal Berner I have ever known.
We ventured into the ring sports in 2025. We got a rally title and worked on some more legs. Andy can be shy with new humans so we have taken many trips to Home Depot for him to meet new people.
Maybe shy is to big of a word. A loaf might be better as it only causes a problem when in the ring. Which shows itself with him freezing up when the judge gets close. If his big sister says it is ok then he is sitting on the foot.
We continue to take training classes. Andy is a great traveler and enjoys going on trips. We look forward to this year.”
Thank you so much, Jasen! HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANDY!!! 🎉
