You are so lucky to not have to deal with the Big C! My only recommendation would be to check into joint supplements and maybe physical therapy so that you don't have the joint issues later on. Good luck to you and your 3-legged baby! Keep us posted!

Welcome to the family, sounds like the pack has given you the best advice already, and yep, consider yourself lucky you don't have the C-cloud over your head, should be a great life, Paws up, Spirit Gus and Dan[

First off, welcome aboard Bree.

What's your furr babies name? And of course we love photos  around here  

I had actually been wondering the same thing myself. My Maddie also is an amputee due to a run in with a car. She's a rear legger.

I started her on joint supplements just last week. 

Of course I know that her having had heartworms, all though she has the all clear now, surely must effect life expectancy. But her and I decided we weren't gonna let that bother us. We're just gonna live life as long as we have it to live, and to the fullest.

That's the most important thing. Not how many years, but how much life we stuff into the ones we get! 

Good luck to you and your pooch.
