BRUDDA! BRUDDA! She didn't mean it! Clearly she's "on something".....your cat nip perhaps? Or maybe she's had a "nip" too many!
Your momma's just joking Brudda.........or.....is....she?
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!

Oh, Hannah! You were the cutest little (?) puppy ever!
Love, Murphy who is off to Boise to meet Tazzie and be in See Spot Walk
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!
OMD! This is FANTASTIC! Best idea ever Michelle! Haven't been here in a while and got the email newsletter - of course I have to submit the Mighty Atlas for the calendar and saw this post. Soooooo glad I did!
Pile-o-puppies! Atlas is in the middle with white stripe around hip.
3 1/2 weeks
Atlas is big at just 3 months!

Sally, thanks for asking about our pack. Atlas is doing fantastic. He's coming up on 6 months ampuversary and it's like he went back a few years in age. He gets up every morning with a smile and wag and jumps up on the bed to give us morning wallers and wooooooo's. He has taken to getting every toy out of the toy box on a daily basis (he hasn't done that in years) and full on play with Sophie. Which makes her very happy. She is great also - no more seizures. Our oldest girl Luba has had a time of it lately but she is stable now. Broken toe healed then allergies got hold of her and she currently has sinus and eye infection. But after a couple days of couple different eye drops she is back on the mend.
Glad to see Happy Hannah doing so well too! And sooooo glad to see all these beautiful puppy photos! Nothing will make you smile faster than puppy photos!
Sophie proves the ear theory too!
