Randi Aileen Press & Luna

Named for a rare blue moon, this miniature schnauzer brings light, mischief, and love wherever she goes.

A lot is in a name. How did you decide on your dog’s name?:

Luna is a 4-year-old miniature schnauzer who was named after the two full moons in October 2020 that was an unusual happening. A harvest moon was the first and a blue moon on Halloween was the second. Super rare for that to happen so the name seemed fitting. Maybe that is why Luna is so mischievous!

How did your dog become part of your family?:

Luna came into our life at six weeks old as a companion for my mother after my father had passed. We quickly realized that her puppy energy needed to be managed so I adopted her. Mom lives close so she visits her grand puppy whenever she needs a good dose of Luna love!

What does a day in the life of Luna look like?:

She may be small at 22 pounds, but she is fierce. She is a protector of our home and of our family. She will hunt down iguanas and force them into the waterway. She will chase raccoons up the Sylvester Palms without hesitation and she will keep the squirrels in line when they sneak on our turf out back. She is Gary’s nap time buddy and quite a talker when she sees something of interest. She loves the wind in her face while riding the waves on boat outings. She has become our NauticStar mascot.

What’s Luna’s gift to you?

Luna is a blessing to our family. We pour so much love into her and she gives it all back tenfold. She will make herself known to all that visit. She will glance in your eyes with her one-of-a-kind very long eyelashes that skirt her beautiful, big brown eyes. One gaze and she will make you feel loved and welcomed. 

Life is better because Luna is a big personality and a lover of all.
