Abby sends special ampuversary kisses for Mr. Rumbles! 
(one for each month!)
Jackie, Abby's mom
Abby: Aug 1, 2009 – Jan 10, 2012. Our beautiful rescue pup lived LARGE with osteosarcoma for 15 months – half her way-too-short life. I think our "halflistic" approach (mixing traditional meds + supplements) helped her thrive. (PM me for details. I'm happy to help.) She had lung mets for over a year. They took her from us in the end, but they cannot take her spirit! She will live forever in our hearts. She loved the beach and giving kisses and going to In-N-Out for a Flying Dutchman. Tripawds blog, and a more detailed blog here. Please also check out my novel, What the Dog Ate. Now also in paperback! Purchase it at Amazon via Tripawds and help support Tripawds!

My mom made us cheeseburgers tonight! Thanks Rumbles.
and by the way....we did NOT steal his face! Tripawds think they are special cause they are missing body parts and Rumbles thinks he is extra special

Happy 6 months sweet Rumbles!!! Ranger really, REALLY wants a cheeseburger, but he's kinda on a diet, so I promised him sweet potatoes and turkey tomorrow. Congratulations, and here's to many more happy ampuversaries!!

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.
