We do NOT regret his amputation, as it gave him several months of happiness, and the ability to be a dog again. His unique problems with both front and back legs caused him to have to walk in a way that torqued his spine. He is no longer in pain, and runs free again, with all his legs, and probably his tail, too. If you have the choice of days or weeks of pain but no surgery, or months of happiness, which would you chose? We made the right choices, but God had other plans for our Sammy.

I'm so glad you found my cool pal, Jerry and his tripawds page. Jerry and his peeps used to live near us, but now they're living the good life on the road. We hope that you can keep getting around in your cart. Woo-hoo, Sammy! I’m so glad you found my cool pal, Jerry and his tripawds page.
