Murphy has never been one for the roach, even when he was a puppy. Maybe it's because he's afraid he will turn into a HAIRY roach like Gus.

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!

Thanks, Michelle and Rene. It was posting from the iPad that got me turned around. I'm sure the original was a jpeg, but it lost something in the translation. I'll hve to wait until later tonight and try to get the PC to talk to Tripawds.

Loved reading all these posts!! Sally, you are so, so funny--by the way saw Cheech and Chong back in my youth
Lily is jealous of all this roaching!! She's a greyhound and no roaching pics. I'll be watching her very carefully-ready to shoot at a moments notice!!
Joan and Lily
Our beautiful Lily was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in her front leg on 12/14/11 at age 8 and had amp on 12/16/11. She completed 5 rounds of carbo. She was so brave and kicked cancer's butt daily! She lived life fully for 4 years, 3 months, and 15 days after her amp. My angel is a warrior princess. I miss her so much.
