I am so sorry to hear about your loss of Boomie.  Yes having almost three years after amputation is great but we are never given enough time.  My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Boomie was certainly one courageous boy.

what a beautiful life he had. I will always remember the Buglady and her brave pup, Boomie.

RIP sweet Boomie

Thank you all for your kind words.  The Tripawds community is like a little island of friendship and support in the middle of an ocean of uncertainty.  Thanks for being here.
