Woo hooo! Let's all give a big Tripawds shout out to Tripawds' long-time Forums Moderator Karen Riley, aka krun15, aka Grand Poobah of the Pugapalooza Tribe!

Karen, thank you for becoming a part of this community and doing so much to help keep some kind of order around here, we don't know what we would do without you!

We hope you have a great day and the coming year is filled with lots of good times, like these:

It's better to hop on three legs than to limp on four.™

Happy Birthday Karen! Thanks so much for everything you do around here. You were definitely a great source of support and help and inspiration and laughter to us while we were dealing with Abby's cancer journey.

Treats for everyone to celebrate! (But not green beans… Those are NOT treats. Those are vegetables disguised as treats!)

Jackie, Angel Abby's & MBBunnyRita'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. Purchase it at Amazon via Tripawds and help support Tripawds!

Yes!!!! Happy Birthday to the ONLY Moderator that actually helps and informs tripawders! Those others just want to play monkeydog games! Sheesh!

I hope you have a great day Karen! I also hope you get a big piece of chocolate cake! Birthday cake calories don't count unless it's NOT your birthday – but it is your birthday – so you're good to go in the calorie deparment!

Enjoy!

She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.

Happy birthday, Karen! Thanks for all you do for the rest of us …

— Beth and Angel Smilin' Sammy

Smilin' Sammy, March 16, 2004 – Dec. 5, 2011 Golden retriever, diagnosed with osteosarcoma in September 2010 — right front leg amputated November 2010. He fought valiantly to stay with us; but a second diagnosis of osteosarcoma, this time in his left front leg, was more than our golden warrior could overcome. He loved his pack — and everyone else he met.
We loved him even more. Thanks for the pennies, Sammy. They helped.
