oh my gosh... the banners are absolutely wonderful!! Such great pictures of those beautiful furbabies!
I just saw Shooters... and of course Sassy's and Brendol's are there too which look just awesome!!
but.. I have a silly question about the banners... obviously they are all of our Tripawd girls and boys that have passed?
Is there one of Franklin? Did I miss it?
Please don't take this as whining... lol but if there is one.. I would love to catch it one day!! lol
Christine..... with Franklin in her heart ♥
Franklin, he was the Happiest Dog on Three Legs! Diagnosed 09/26/2012 with Osteosarcoma, amputated 12/4/2012. Had a wonderful 5 1/2 months painfree until he ran for the Bridge on 5/15/2013. Always in my heart, and always a guardian angel of my pack... You can follow his Tripawd Adventures, before and after, in my blog, Frank'n'Farter!

Thank you soooooo much for sharing those wo derful memories with us
Franklin's life touched and i spired.....and continues to inspire us deeply

Hey Christine,
That's not a silly question at all. Please accept our sincere apologies, we didn't intentionally overlook your sweet Franklin. This summer has been crazy for us and made us absentminded at times. Please send us links to some images you think would make a great banner and Admin will be happy to create one. Remember, think horizontal images, they tend to work better.
For anyone interested here is the Official Tripawds Tribute Banner Policy. And Christine, you definitely meet the policy's criteria, so thank you, this is the least we can do.

Christine, I'm so glad you asked! I'd wondered, too, but hadn't poked around to find the explanation and now I know. It's a wonderful tribute.

Thanks gang..
well.. I didn't want to sound like I was whining... lol That's Mr. Wilson's job when he wants that 145th cookie!!
And the banners change every time you go to a different page.. and I just wasn't sure if there was one there.
I didn't realize there was a Tribute Banner Policy!!! thanks for posting that.. I am going to go read it..
I guess I am so anxious when I get here to go see what is happening and how these puppers and kitts are doing that I must have missed that.
Can I email the pictures of Franklin? I suck at trying to link etc..(remember my earlier post trying to link a video??) lol
I do have a bunch in my Facebook and there are a few that would honor Frankie...

You weren't whining, it's OK, I"m glad you asked!
To send links to photos just right click on existing ones and choose "copy image URL." Then paste that into your PM to us. If that doesn't work of course you can email them, no problem, just send 2 or 3 of your faves to us (jerry-at-tripawds-dot-com). We're looking forward to seeing them.
