Last night, after the house finally quieted down, I sat in bed crocheting.

Being a mom of three means those late night hours are often the most uninterrupted time I get with my dogs, so I try to soak up every minute I can.

As I looked down at my feet, I realized that one day hopefully not soon… this view will be gone.

One day I won’t look down and see these two beside me.

And just like that, I was hit with a wave of anticipatory grief.

Not because anything is wrong.

Not because today is their last day.

Just because I suddenly became aware of how precious this moment really is.

I think a lot of us are carrying that feeling right now. Looking at aging dogs. Aging parents. Growing children. Seasons of life we know won’t last forever.

We love something so much that part of us is already mourning the day it changes.

But maybe that’s also the reminder.

Stop waiting.

Stop waiting for more money… more time, a better schedule.. for me a cleaner house or the perfect day.
Put down the phone & sit on the floor. Take a walk. Hold them a little longer.

Because someday, the thing you’ll miss most won’t be the big moments.

It’ll be this.

The ordinary weekday night with the dog at your feet.
And right now, if you’re lucky enough to still have it, it’s not ordinary at all. ❤️

Music is not mine: just my late night listens by 🎼

Indiana 💞🐾

💜Chiquita is a sweet and shy girl who is looking for a new home. 💜

🪻She is 3 years old and is a Dachshund and Pug mix of sorts. She weighs 30 lbs and does well with other dogs but will need a cat free home. 🪻

💜We were told that Chiquita is house trained and she keeps her kennel nice and tidy at the shelter. She does need some work learning to walk on a leash, but is doing pretty well with a harness. 💜

If you would like to meet Chiquita please click the link 🔗 in the comments to our adoption application.

A lot of you probably know where Turbo got his name… but for the ones who don’t, here’s a fun little full circle moment. 🧡💚

Turbo was named after Turbo the snail from the movie Turbo, the tiny underdog who somehow ends up winning the Indy 500. And honestly, it fit him perfectly. With his tiny little body and the way he scooted and hopped around, he really did remind me of a determined little snail. 🐌

At the time Turbo came into my life, I lived in Speedway and eventually moved close enough to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway that you could practically throw a rock into the stands. And somehow, years later, his little carts would end up being modeled after IndyCars too. 🏁

A tiny disabled Chihuahua named after a racing snail, raised in the shadow of the Speedway, who went on to inspire people all over the world. Some stories really do write themselves. 🧡💚

When you’re one of the coolest dogs on wheels, you get to work with some of the coolest brands on earth. 🌍

We were SO excited when Subaru reached out to work with Turbo for National Make A Dog’s Day, a campaign focused on helping overlooked shelter dogs, especially disabled and special needs pups, get seen. 🫶

Funny little behind the scenes fact… while this shoot looks super polished and easy, Turbo was actually giving us a RUN for our money. 😂

For the campaign, he had to wear a collar and walk on a leash, two things he absolutely hated. Turbo never wore collars, never liked leashes, and honestly preferred to freewheel through life. And to make matters worse… he also couldn’t wear his famous jacket.

Which was a huge deal in Turbo’s world.

That jacket was basically his emotional support hoodie. His confidence boost. His little safety blanket.

So there was a whole lot of stopping, bribing, convincing, and “Turbie pleeeeease” happening behind the scenes to make this all come together. 😅

This was only ONE of the THREE shoot days too. We also got to film at my old animal shelter alongside another wheelchair dog named Buddy, which made the whole experience even more special.

Part two coming soon. 🛞
