Awww Hannah, you have done something Sassy never did, eat off of a fork. You eat so dainty. Love that you are feeling better. Looks like you are enjoying that Bark Box.

Oh my gosh Hannah you dine with manners that outshine the Queen of England. Did your Mum send you to finishing school? Sure looks like it to me!

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
Nothing wrong with that lady's appetite Hannah does have impeccable table manners, though. Not sure I can say as much for the way she devoured the goodies in her Bark Box.
Here is a new challenge for you, Hannah. We used to have a Golden called Sam who would eat artichokes. Now that you have mastered green beans and forks, we will have to teach you about those California veggies. BTW, Sam lived to be sixteen, so those 'chokes must have been good for hm.
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 My Gosh. Hannah did you eat those treats bag and all? Maybe it's a good thing you don't have opposable thumbs. World domination wouldn't be far behind, surely. Happy scarfing big girl!!

Oh Hannah, you HAVE to teach the pugs your table manners! You are eating off a fork...I'm happy if the pugs don't knock the bowl out of my hand when I'm putting it down!

OMD she's BACK, what a beautiful sight. I'm glad you got thru your cold okay, Miss Hannah. Now you'd better get back to your station at the stove, I think you've got more snow coming!

Hehehhe! She makes that fork look so tiny. What a dainty eater....I'll ignore her nomonomnom noises.
~ Katy & Jackson
ACL tear in right hind leg 12/5/12 and scheduled ACL repair surgery 12/21/12. Pre-op xrays revealed osteosarcoma. Amputation 12/28/12. Chemo (carboplatin) started Jan 10, 2013 and ended on April 5, for a total of 5 doses. He handled carbo like a champ! No side effects. We started metronomic therapy at his third chemo and have been also doing some holistic treatments. He's a lively, playful 10 year old huskie-boarder collie and a very proud member of the Winter Warriors! Our love. Our funny little guy!
