We have been out of town more than in for the past several weeks. Murphy's bean patch was doing wonderfully.

HOWEVER, he decided this week that the beans were ready to harvest. He also decided that he should be the one to do it.

There will be a fence installed by tonight.
Kathi and Murphy
Murphy is a five year old Lab/Chessie cross. He was hit by a car on 10/29/12 and became a Tripawd on 11/24/12. On 2/5/13, he had a total hip replacement on his remaining back leg. He has absolutely no idea that he has only three legs!
UPDATE: Murphy lived his life to the fullest, right up until an aggressive bone lesion took him across the Rainbow Bridge on April 9, 2015 and he gained his membership in the April Angels. Run free, my love. You deserve it!
Oh Murphy!
You look so proud of yourself too - Tucker says he hopes they were delicious.
Hugs
Linda and Tucker

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
Dude- you have to take just a few at a time so no one notices!
Now you have to figure out how to defeat the fence.
