You gave me your business card, and now that I have internet, here I am! Your website is awesome and it looks like you've done a huge amount of work on it. I already am going to start making my own yogurt (Dr. Budwid Diet), and will be obtaining a "mattress" bed since Carly is sleeping on a large dog pillow, which does lump up. Again, you two (or I should say, three) are a true inspiration. I have a friend who just last night brought a tripawd back from the Dominican Republic and I will be forwarding this website to her. Thanks again for all your work and dedication!

We have many beds but I was hoping to get her the best and don't know what that is. Thanks for any advice you have. Is it true that a memory foam bed is the best for my 3 legged dog?

We recommend firm beds on the ground, or cot like beds they can step up onto, or steps at the foot of your bed. With a missing front leg, there is a major chance of injury to the remaining front leg when jumping down off of anything. With a missing rear leg, he risks straining the remaining back leg when jumping up. But we're not vets and can only speak of our experiences with Jerry. You will find much more advice tips and support from many others who understand in the <a href="http://tripawds.com/forums/" title="dog leg amputation advice support help">tripawd discussion forums</a>.

He doesn't seem to be bothered by it. He sleeps up on it every night. I'm just starting to worry and wonder if that is good for his other legs?? Hope you have some insight on this. Thanks!

Jumping up and down off that would be a bummer! But it looks like Sasha made a great idea work, and I bet you could find that mattress at a thrift store. Lalla looks totally comfy. I sure hope she's dreaming of me. Being a visual dawg, I’d just like to clarify that you remove the mattress from the frame shown in that bed picture, fold it, and cover it.
