Hey all my tripawd friends,
Maggie could use some help on her votes! I sure would like to see a Tripawd cancer dog win this contest as it is for canine cancer research...

Thanks in advance!
Tracy & Maggie(who thought the photo with me wearing orange was appropriate for the catalog!)
Maggie was amputated for soft tissue sarcoma 10-20-09
Maggie lost her battle with kidney disease on 8-24-13
I voted! I hope she does well.
We entered Abby last year and she came in 3rd for "most unique # of votes" - but she didn't make it into the catalog. 🙁 I sure hope Maggie makes it in! The orange is a good idea and definitely appropriate!

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!
I think I voted. It didn't behave quite as I expected. And I agree that a cancer survivor should be the face of a cancer fundraiser. If it were up to me, the only dogs in the contest would be dogs who had cancer.

From abandoned puppy to Tripawd Warrior Dude, Dakota became one of the 2011 February Furballs due to STS. Our incredibly sweet friend lived with grace and dignity till he impulsively raced over the Bridge on 12-15-12.
Dakota's thoughtful and erudite blog is at http://shari.tr.....pawds.com/
We voted! Keep on reminding us OK?

Thanks everyone! I'll keep reminding Jerry I know, I think only cancer dogs should be able to enter too!

Chloe became a rear amp tripawd on 7-29-10. Another tumor was removed on front leg 2-20-14. Found 3rd tumor on neck 2-2015, but she's still kicking cancer's butt at age 14. Chloe's blog
