On Facebook I'm Christy Dawson Summerville. I have several pics on there & been posting updates daily. I'm going to try to get on here with iPad in morning when I get off work. I can't get pics tiny enough to crop on here.
Yay! I have a profile pic. This is the shirt she's wearing to protect her incision. It's day 5 & she's doing surprisingly well.

I love your avatar picture! She is so cute, and looks great in pink!
Otis - 106 pound lab/Dane mix, lost his right front leg to osteosarcoma on Febuary 9, 2016. Four rounds of carboplatin completed in April, 2016. Lung mets August 25, 2016. Said goodbye too soon on September 4, 2016. Lost his adopted sister, Tess, suddenly on October 9, 2016. likely due to hemangiosarcoma.
Wherever they are, they are together.

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 been 12 days since she had surgery & I can hardly keep her still. I'm so proud of my little Laci. She feels great. We go back to vet tomorrow. A coworkers dog had same leg amputated a week after my girl. I told her & her daughter to come her for advice.
