Many people wonder if a Tripawd can have a hip replacement or other kind of knee or leg surgery while living on 3. As Angel Murphy brilliantly showed us, yes they can! And here's another amazing Tripawd who is going through the recovery. Meet Ollie, who's about 1 week post-op and doing great!

We know Murphy is keeping an eye on you sweet Ollie!
You are a hero in the making! Heck no! You already are a hero! And a very loved one with very devoted.pawents!!
Cheering for you champ! You'll be up and running before you know it!
Love and hugs to all!
Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle too!
Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
It's nice to know that Chuy isn't the only one to go through something like this. Even though Chuy didn't have hip replacement, just the FHO surgery, we know how difficult it is to deal with a dog on 2 legs. (even if it is only for a short while)
Congratulations Ollie on a great recovery! Keep hopping! 🙂
Chuy, showing everyone that Tripawds do everything 3 times better than regular dogs!

"Just"?! That's major Eleanor! You and Chuy were the first Tripawd we ever met who tackled a remaining limb surgery. Our original inspawration for letting others know that yes, it can be done and they can bounce back. Chuy's our original rock star of hip/leg surgeries.

If it weren't for this site, I don't think we would have made it through everything. You guys are the true Rock Stars!!
