As we move into the “dog days” of summer, those long, hot afternoons that make us all slow down just a little, we thought it was the perfect time to celebrate the loyal companions who seem to love every season: our dogs. Whether your four-legged friend is lounging in the shade or chasing tennis balls like it’s their joyful duty, we’d love to see them! If you’re a dog owner or dog lover, we invite you to reply to this email with a photo of your favorite canine companion, past or present! If you’d like to be featured in a future issue of our newsletter, or even on our BluHawk website, just include a quick note granting us permission to share (your and) your pup’s best angle.

In this issue, we’re also circling back to an important topic we introduced last month: the current landscape of tax legislation. With the passing of the Tax Relief for American Families and Workers Act of 2025 on July 4th, several key provisions have now officially become law. We’ll focus specifically on those changes most relevant to your investments, retirement planning, and long-term financial strategy. Our goal is to help you not just understand the headlines, but to clearly see how they affect your financial picture moving forward.

As always, we remain committed to helping you build and protect a life of significance financially, relationally, and even occasionally…from the perspective of a dog’s life! 

So grab a cool drink, find some shade, and enjoy this month’s updates from your BluHawk team.
