I don't know if I should post this here or in Alumni, but I just wanted you to know that I have been posting to Murphy's YouTube channel. I had to start the channel again from scratch, as it disappeared into the ethernet a while back. There are about two dozen videos up now, and I will get more done as time goes on. Most of what I put on so far is the early recovery and rehab, but there are a few later videos, too. The channel is still called Murphy the Three Legged Dog. Hopefully this time it won't go away.
Kathi and the Turbotail April Angel...and the Labradork
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!

Kathi thank you! This is a perfect place to let us know. Your diligence in putting those videos back up is wonderful and means so much to us now and for future Tripawd parents too. Thank you thank you.

Thanks, Jerry and Sally. It was interesting to go back through the old videos. There were some that I forgot I had even taken, such as the one of Murphy "playing fetch" before he had the THR. I'm still going through the folders. Sally, I am afraid the a Granny Bump will never surface again. It was taken with the iPad and probably got deleted after it was posted to YouTube. Still....it could show up in some unexpected place.

Kathi did you check your photo stream on the iPad? I found a ton of old pics I thought I had deleted on ours, had no idea that the stream/archive even existed! I hope you can find it.

Look for the icon with all of your apps, on the desktop.
