Denali has made it to 2 months. She is still bunny hopping 🙁 . This weekend (if all goes well) Denali will earn her . . . WHEELS! I'm pretty excited that my baby girl might get her mobility back. There is a person that custom makes them about 45 minutes away. I'm SO hoping she will adapt to a doggy wheel chair (and Denali and I have some plans to deck out her doggy wheel chair and make it more fun).

Happy 2 Month Ampuversary Denali! What a way to celebrate - with your own wheels! You'll be like the Mario Andretti of tripawds. Tell your mom to take lots of pictures so we can see how stylin you are in your new set of wheels. Here's to many many more ampuversaries and celebrations! Way to go Denali!
My sweet golden Mackenzie. She became my angel on Dec 29, 2010 at the age of 8 1/2 although she was always my angel from the time we brought her home. She was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in Sept 2009 and officially became a tripawd (front leg) on Nov 5, 2009. She will be forever in my heart and now she's running free with all of our other tripawd heroes. I love you Mackenzie!
Happy 2 month ampuversary!! A good milestone indeed and a new set of wheels to boot!! Post some pictures of the "decked" out wheels once you get them!!!

Chloe became a rear amp tripawd on 7-29-10. Another tumor was removed on front leg 2-20-14. Found 3rd tumor on neck 2-2015, but she's still kicking cancer's butt at age 14. Chloe's blog
Aww! That's super terrific Denali!
It's such a great day for celebrating, too!
You go girl! Dragster Denali ---- varoooooooom!
Comet - 1999 to 2011
She departed us unexpectedly January 23, 2011 at the age of 12 1/2.
She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.
Denali,
Hey, a two month ampuversary is indeed a big deal and everyone needs to celebrate accordingly. We should never take these milestones for granted. I remember mine because it not only was two month ampuversary but it also marked the end of my chemotherapy. Euck! That cheotherapy left such a nasty taste that I never had any interest in any food that Dad offered during the chemotherapy treatments.
Now back to your ampuversary PAWRTY, Extra Hugs, Extra Playtime, Extra Treats, and ICE CREAM are all standard requirements. I think that getting those wheels is a great bonus. Just make sure that they spoil you as they should. Dad will be giving a special toast for the occasion and we all will be looking forward to many more such great celebrations.

Way to go, Denali! Love the celebrations and love that you may be getting some wheels. Wow, Trouble's gonna be jealous! We must see pictures when you get the wheels all figured out.
