Last week was Domino's 6 month ampuversary!! Time has just flown by, it's hard to believe. Domino has been doing great. He is currently loving the nice cool weather down here since he gets to go out and play catch multiple times a day. He has most definitely decided that the tennis ball is the most amazing object in the world.... We only have about 20 of them around the house now. He recently got to see alot of the staff that helped him before and after his amputation at the vet clinic. And his reunion with them was amazing! He bolted across the lobby and jumped into the kennel workers arms that spent the most time with him while he was there. It was such a fun thing to see. Other than that life remains the same. Lots of fetch and cuddles keeps the wiggle butt happy 
Until next time!
Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
Cassie and Domino

Domino had his left front leg amputate on May 13th 2014 after being hit by a car. He's now living a happy healthy life on three legs :)

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
