Just wanted to send a quick note to say thank you for the amazing work you do and to share a little update on Big Nose Kate (aka Gracie), who has been by my side for two wonderful years now. She has become the ultimate adventure buddy. Always game for a road trip, a mountain hike, neighborhood walks, or just hanging out at home after a long day. She brings joy, energy, and a big outgoing personality wherever she goes.

We recently celebrated her Gotcha Day with a salmon dinner, a fuzzy new squeak toy, and a custom coonhound cake because she earned it. The photos from the past couple of years capture just how much life she is living and how much joy she brings into mine.

Thank you again for bringing us together.

Chris
