I wanted to wish all a peaceful and meaningful Christmas.
We are at different places in our tripawd journeys, I hope everyone can find at least one thing to celebrate this year.
I am grateful that I can still be active here, to honor Maggie's fight and keep her memory alive. And I celebrate the friendships I have made here- through good times and bad we are here for each other.
Here is the 11th annual Pug Christmas Card. You can see the first 10, and get a little more info on this one in Maggie's Blog.

Such a cute card!
Thanks for all your support! You are definitely keeping Maggie's spirit alive. I'm sure she's proud of you. We feel like we know her, even though she'd already earned her wings before we even knew of the term "Tripawd."
Merry Christmas!
Jackie, Abby' 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!
