It's a very special day for someone we all know and love!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY RENE (AKA JERRY)!!!!
I think I can speak for everyone when I say how much you and Jim are admired for picking up your life to help Jerry, and helping so many others along the way. You have never asked for anything in return. You are the true meaning of selfless. I have been banging my head against the wall thinking, what can I do for Rene's birthday. I know next to Jim and Wyatt, that this community is the closest thing to your heart! Some of us realize all the work it takes to run a non-profit, and how important donations are. Unfortunately, when the economy drops, non-profits feel it the most, especially non-profits for animals. Then Brownie came up with a great idea!!!
Brownie sent pennies from Heaven. Brownie donated $5.00 to the Tripawd Community, but he has a challange! He is challenging all tripawds to also donate $5.00 in honor of Rene's Birthday!
So come on everyone, and lets make this a birthday Rene will remember!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY RENE. THIS IS YOUR DAY!!!
Love, Nancy, Angel Brownie, Sassy and Max
My Beautiful Beloved Brownie was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma on February 26, 2019. With all odds against him he lived an additional one year and eight days with amputation, love, and prayer. I was honored to be his mom, and I have never been so proud! He will live forever in my Heart!

🤩 Wow! Sitting here with watery eyes and a heart filled with gratitude. I went on an all day run today, then had dinner and just sat down to see this😮!! Wow! I’m so touched. Nancy who told you?!! It had to have been Brownie, he must be hanging out with Jerry who spilled
the beans!
Thank you so so much for the birthday wishes and your love and generosity. This was the best gift and such a surprise! Thank you from the bottom of my heart Tripawds furmily, you are truly special humans. Love you!!!

Rene, I am so happy you got to do your favorite thing on your birthday! I had a feeling Jim kidnapped you today. lol...Good for him!
Thanks to the ones who met Brownie's challenge. I know He has a big silly grin on his face!
And a special shout out to Happy Hannah! A lesson we can learn, to give up something small to help something so big!
It is not to late to meet Brownie's $5.00 challenge....
I can't think of another site where you can tell your pets story, start a blog, get so much valuable advise from others, and access to so much needed information for free! All because of Rene and Jim!
Happy Birthday Rene! We are forever grateful!

Sounds like you had a wonderful day, I am so happy. You deserve it.

You guys are all so amazing! During crazy upside down times like this, you wonderful Tripawds family members keep me sane and hopeful. I am so grateful for all you do my friends! Brownie's Challenge was the BEST PRESENT(S) EVER!
Yes it was an excellent day. And after my long long long run (I ran my age in kilometers!), I had ICE CREAM (Sally!) and cookies and pizza with my Camp Covid family and Admin, then today Admin gave me another present: he washed our house!
I couldn't ask for more from so many wonderful people and Tripawds. Thank you again.

Challenge accepted, donation completed! Griffin and I with you the very best of (belated) birthdays, Rene! Thanks for all you do and for being so caring, selfless, and optimistic. We are so very thankful for you and this Tripawd community!
Griffin lived an amazing life for 11 years! Diagnosed with osteosarcoma on March 17, 2020, Griffin's right forelimb was amputated on April 2, 2020. Ten days later he was running and playing fetch! Lung metastasis discovered in July 2020 did not slow down Griffin and he lived joyfully for the next 7 months, passing peacefully at home on February 11, 2021. https://griffin.tripawds.com
Thank you Stacy and Griffen for accepting Brownie's challenge. I know Brownie's smile is getting bigger by the minute! I am sure Rene has a pretty big smile as well!
