Hey everyone!!!!!
Today is Jack's 7 month ampuversary!!! I am so proud and lucky to have him here. He is currently napping next to me right now. He is doing great!!! I can't believe I get to still log on here and celebrate monthly. I am really blessed.
Jerry, I am so sorry we couldn't make the Texas Tripawd party 🙁 I had some furniture delivered that day and it ran late and didn't arrive till late in the day. Jack and I both missed out 🙁 Please come back soon !!!!
I hope this finds everyone well and howdy from Texas

Yea Jack!! Happy 7 Month Ampuversary!! That's so great! Mackenzie just celebrated 6 months and I can only imagine how 7 months must feel. Here's wishing you many, many more ampuversaries!!
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!

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.
Erin and Jack,
We are so very happy to hear of Jack's 7 month ampuversary. Dad says that he will be toasting this great milestone tonight and he has a BIG SMILE. For that, I thank you. He is fond of saying that every day is a cause for celebration and giving thanks, but milestones as great as 7 months is reason for PAWRTY. We all hope that Jack gets extra hugs, extra playtime, special treats and my favorite way to celebrate, ICE CREAM.
Dad says that he will not arugue that there may be some "luck" involved with being able to reach such a milestone, but do not underestimate the contribution of your hard work, patience, and the loving bond so very necessary for our companions to pull through this adversity. ALL are so very important!! Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!! We will be looking forward to the next milestone and never pass an oppertunity to celebrate your collective accomplishments.

Congratulations Jack & Erin!!!! I can hardly wait until my 3rd month ampuversary (1 week from today and counting!) I'm starting to notice a pattern...ampuversary...steak....ampuversary...steak...Maybe I can get mom to give me something special for YOUR celebration! Mom, did you hear that??? You guys are pawsome! Happy Ampuversary
Sadie is my 9yr old Rott/Shepherd mix. Diagnosed with osteosarcoma in her right scapula 1/28/10. Our brave girl had her amputation 2/13/10 and her last chemotherapy on 6/6/10. Unfortunately, a tumor appeared in her back right leg and on 10/7/2010 Sadie's earthly journey came to an end. On 10/24/2010 we adopted Ranger, a handsome Rott/Lab mix tripawd (got hit by a car) I think Sadie sent him to us.

Hugs,
Holly and Holly's mom
Holly joined the world of tripawds on 12/29/2009. She has a big little sister, Zuzu, who idolizes Holly and tries to make all of her toys into tripawds in Holly's honor. And she's enjoying life one hop at a time!

Happy Hoppy Ampuversary Jack! Here's to lots and lots more reasons to pawty.

Valiant to the end on Oct 26/10 when cancer reappeared in a leg and we made the decision to set her free. Forever in my heart where not even cancer can take her from me.
