He's beautiful! Looks like one happy fellow too 🙂
Scout: January 31, 2002 to November 7, 2011
Scout's diagnosis was "poorly differentiated sarcoma"; amputation 1/11/2011. Scout enjoyed 9 fantastic years on 4 legs and 9 glorious months on 3 legs. If love alone could have saved you…

Hey Fat Boy Baby Samson! (Um at 90# I guess I better be careful
) I see you finally learned how to walk!
Me thinks Bailey is a figment of your imagination cause I don't see a picture of her- just your fat baby body.
Are you ready for your ears yet?
Spirit Samson was Spirit Tripawd Daisys four legged "brother" and ruled as the self proclaimed head of the Monkeybutt Federations East Coast Division. Lady Chunky Monkey stayed from Oct 2011 and left for the bridge in Apr 2012. Miss Perdy is left and has some big pawprints to fill.

Looking good, Samson! He could be The Enforcer of the Monkeybutt Federation. He'd look really good in some bunny ears!
Jackie, Angel Abby & MBBunny Rita's mom
Abby: Aug 1, 2009 – Jan 10, 2012. Our beautiful rescue pup lived LARGE with osteosarcoma for 15 months – half her way-too-short life. I think our "halflistic" approach (mixing traditional meds + supplements) helped her thrive. (PM me for details. I'm happy to help.) She had lung mets for over a year. They took her from us in the end, but they cannot take her spirit! She will live forever in our hearts. She loved the beach and giving kisses and going to In-N-Out for a Flying Dutchman. Tripawds blog, and a more detailed blog here. Please also check out my novel, What the Dog Ate. Now also in paperback! Purchase it at Amazon via Tripawds and help support Tripawds!

OMGoodness, what a beautiful boy! I think he might need a set of extra-large ears....
Zeus was a Husky mix diagnosed with Osteosarcoma at age 11. A visible lung met and suspicious spot on his liver meant a poor prognosis-six weeks was our vet's best guess. We decided to fight for our boy and his right front leg was amputated on 12/1/11. We did six rounds of chemo, changed his diet and spoiled him completely rotten. We were blessed with 10 great months after diagnosis. Against the odds, the lung met remained a single met and grew very little over those months. A wonderful furbaby with the most gentle spirit, he fought with a strength that we never imagined he possessed. We have no regrets...

I heard that Cooper was a nice guy and all , but he was kinda slow before he became a tripawd , and me, why I can run and jump and even fly! I fly over these dumb baby gates in this house like they arent even there... you know what I mean?? So it s really not my dads fault that he has been too busy , Ill make sure he gets me on here now and then.
Hey Samson007 .. my sis is snippy and knuckleheaded too, so that dont sound like a good trade to me... you got anything better??
