Meg's been a bit slack on the blog front of late, but she has finally posted about our trip to the beach.
Ruby, Staffy, born June 2022, became a Tripawd, 23 November 2023, adopted 12 January 2024.
Also Angel Tripawd Meg (aka The Megastar), who died in April 2023, aged 14, after seven glorious years on three, and Angel Staffies Pie and Bille. In the pawprints of giants...
Oh Meg!! I'm hopping over there right now!!! If that photo is any indication of the kind of EXHILARATING UNBRIDLED JOY you experienced.....WOW!!!!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂
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!
So Elsie snaffled something at the beach and has been up half the night being sick. Honestly!!! I saw her troughing something but it was gone by the time I got to her so I don't know what it was. I think she's fine. Her tummy's soft, no temperature or anything, now she's just feeling sorry for herself. I, on the other hand am totally knackered. Honestly, these two... they really are.... the worst, the very, very, very WORST... 🙄

Oh Elsie Pie! Leave it to you!! Never a dull moment!! 🙂
Nothing like a little rotting sea critter has a yummy snack 🙂
Now Elsie, over "here" knackered pretty much means drunk out of your mind (I think)!! Have you and Meg driven yiur Mum to "drink to excess"? Just don't let her have the car keys....and don't let Meg either! 🙂 🙂
Feel better sweet girl...both of you!

Haha! No, over here knackered means totally exhausted. I find I use it rather a lot... the drinking will come later 😉❤️

My niece ate something bad for her? Oh no! Hoping she's all better now! I know sweet Elsie if mom fed you a bit more you wouldn't need to forage for more food. I hear you! It's totally not your fault....at all! The picture of a sick Pie in my mind is hurting my heart! Hope she's on the mend!
Aww, thanks Auntie Linda. Pie's fine, though she has still been slightly off-colour today, so it was a nasty something, whatever it was. She's enjoying cuddling her favourite toy, as she convalesces and relishing the extra attention (obviously).

Awe the mournful Pie! Breaking my heart here! Feel better soon! Love and hugs Elsie! Yes Pie I noticed! Well done! 😉😉
Okay Elsie Pie....we know you are milking this for all it's worth and we are all falling for it too. You can take THE most pitiful-poor-me pictures when you want to!
Feel better sweet girl 🙂
Lpts of healing lpve your way.from allmof your Fams!! 🙂
Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle and Frankie too!
PS Clare, my bad. I think "knackered" does mean exhausted. Drunk out of one's mind means....yeah, you guessed it.....drunk out of one's mind!!! 🙂

I sure hope Elsie is feeling better. I just got caught up on the blog and this post. 🙂
My turn Jasmine got up with a sick tummy of course then before we can get outside she is running around trying to find anything to eat to make her tummy feel better so what does she eat a sucker wrapper that my niece or nephew threw on the floor. GRR at least it came up outside
Get feeling better Elsie. Meg keep the stories coming. Clare get some rest

Oh I do hope the Pie is feeling mucho better!!!
Is there anything better, though, truly, a dog on the beach? Pure bliss!!!
And I actually think I knew that knackered also meant tired ... score one for California Girl!!!

Our story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife
Elsie Pie what did you eat? 
Sure hope she is back to herself !!
Great picture of Meg & we are always happy to see Miss Pie, we would rather see her feeling good and not eating dead see whatever's !
Girls be good and Miss Pie feel better! Clare get some rest!
Hugs
