So Maggie May isn't a tripawd, but she is Adelaide's new best friend.  And Adelaide is being such a great big sister.  Maggie May actually wears Adelaide out, imagine it.  They are almost evenly matched.  I'd say about 90%.  And then 10% of the time, Maggie May is off trying to find something else to do because she is still wanting to play and Adelaide is done.  I wanted to post some pictures for Sally to see, and since Sally isn't a facebooker, figured this would be a good place.  

Maggie May is about AddyImage Enlarger

Maggie May is about the same size as Addy now in height.  She's 18 weeks old and 34 pounds.

And while we are saying oooh and aww, she's so cute... well, she's also a puppy.  And she's a bit destructive.  She pulled down my Wag! book twice (yep, twice) off the night stand and chewed on it.  Guess she was trying to read it.

Hope you enjoyed.

Karma, Adelaide and our pack including our new member Maggie May, and always our angel Brendol

Adelaide is a young tripawd Husky, from an injury.  Her amp was on 10/1/12.  She has 4 sisters, Aissa (a senior border collie/chow), Maggie May (a puppy Great Pyrenees), Mathilde and Morrigan and 1 baby brother, Bagheera.  We are all watched over by our angel Brendol, who was dx with OSA 1/30/13, amp on 2/6/13, and left us on 8/20/13.

PICTURES!!!!!! clap

FINALLY, PICTURES OF THE PUPPY!!!!!

WOOF!!! WOOF!!! clap

HALLELUJAH!!!

YAAAAAAAAAY!!!

AWWW!!! BAM!!! WOW!!!clap

Maggie and Addy are sooooo cute together! She is already the size of Addy? Whoa!! Addy, you better be real sweet to her, cuz she's gonna be a really big girl soon! She just may start thinking of you as her favorite "stuffy"!!

Is she has soft and fluffy as she looks? Cuddle time must last for hours with this "little" baby.

What does Aissa think of her...and vice versa?

Okay, have you posted anymore video of Maggie and Addy playing on Facebooger? We NEED video of that!! YAY FOR MORE VIDEO!!!

Karma, these pictures are just priceless. The coloring on her pretty little face...those cute little ears...sooooo darn adorable!!

And as far as this site being just for TRIPAWDS....say whaaaat? Ohhhhh nooooo.....not so! We NEED the smiles that "Brendol's puppy" brings us! Brendiol, Sassy, Shelby, Murphy and Gus, Ellie, Polly, Ty, Harmony, Happy Hannah, Jake, Jerry Carol's Maggie, and all the others have all personally paw -picked who they want for us to love and to laugh with. And some just happen to have four legs (and may they all stay that way too!) Besides, if it's a "tripawd only" site, there woukd be no two legged humans to typo for them!

This just makes me sooooo happy to see you surrounded by all this joy...love...fun...and nightly chaotic cuteness gone wild!!

So glad you posted this. Cannot wait to follow her journey...and growth!!! Can't wait to see what book she reads next!

Loads of love my friend!!

Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle Mae and Frankie Lee (?) too!

PS...Myrtle and Frankie nead off upstairs on their own a lot to chill in their air conditioned bedroom. No, not to sleep...to play wnere it's cool!!

Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!

Thanks guys.  Yes, Sally, she is as soft as she looks.  Super soft.  And the next book she grabbed was 'The Alchemist' (it's now missing its cover).  And then I managed to save another book from her ravages.  I guess I need to gate up the library to keep her from grabbing books out of there.

As for Aissa, she is tolerating her, but not amused.  But while Adelaide and Maggie May wrestle for hours on end, I have Aissa come sit with me and she gets good momma time.

Here's a video of them playing a couple days ago (and Addy wasn't tangled, just looked that way).

Goodness, she's a Pyr, right? I love the face markings. Puppies are such fun, even when they're a lot of work. 

Denise, Bill and Angel Ellie. 

Active 10+ Pyr mix suddenly came up lame with ACL tear in left rear leg. Scheduled for a TPLO but final pre-op x-rays indicated a small suspicious area, possibly OSA, which could have caused the ACL tear. Surgeon opened the knee for TPLO but found soft bone. Biopsy came back positive for OSA. Became a Tripawd 9/18/14. Carbo6 with Cerenia and Fluids. Pain free and living in the moment. Crossed the Bridge on 7/12/15 after probable spread of cancer to her cervical spine. A whole lifetime of memories squeezed into 10 months. Here's her story: Eloise

Annypyr, she is a Great Pyrenees.  She's going to be my hundred pound lap dog, and I love it.

Rene, she has great reading taste to the detriment of my library.  The other book I saved was 'The Possession' by Dostoevsky.

CUTENESS overload for sure!!!!  LOVE THESE!

Our story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife

Here is some more.  A short movie of how our days go (without the cleaning up accidents or the "no"s to various chewing attempts).

Hope you enjoyed.
