Today marks one month as Zeus being a Tripawd!  We are thankful for each and every day and we hope he has many, many more ampuversaries.  Thank you all for all of your support and advice during this trying time!!

Happy New Year!!!!

Zeus was a Husky mix diagnosed with Osteosarcoma at age 11.  A visible lung met and suspicious spot on his liver meant a poor prognosis-six weeks was our vet's best guess. We decided to fight for our boy and his right front leg was amputated on 12/1/11. We did six rounds of chemo, changed his diet and spoiled him completely rotten. We were blessed with 10 great months after diagnosis. Against the odds, the lung met remained a single met and grew very little over those months. A wonderful furbaby with the most gentle spirit, he fought with a strength that we never imagined he possessed. We have no regrets...

Congratulations on the 1 month ampuversary!  Zeus is a beautiful dog and seems to be adjusting so well. 

Best wishes for you and Zeus in 2012.

 

Kathy and Tasha

Tasha was a German ShepherdBorder Collie mix who was diagnosed with OSA at age 8.  On December 29, 2011 she had her front right leg amputated and received 4 rounds of chemo.  Sadly and suddenly Tasha became sick and we discovered she had liver cancer that had spread to her lung.  After almost 19 months, Tasha earned her wings on July 17, 2013. No regrets and never forgotten.

Hooray for one month! Here's to many many many many many many more!!!

Abby sends ampuversary kisses to Zeus.

Hoppy New Year,
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!

Congratulations and Happy, Hoppy New Year!!!

What a fantastic way to start the new year!  Zeus is such a beautiful boy and is obviously surrounded by love from his family on this important ampuversary.  I just know that this sort of happy celebration on the first day of the year is a very, very good sign winker

Hug, woofs, and bickies from our house to yours . . .

- Karen, Jim, Spirit Sheepdog Sylvie, and the pack of two: Banjo and Charlie

Sweet Silly Sylvie, the Old English Sheepdog

Diagnosed with osteosarcoma 11/04/2010 at almost 7 years of age * Left hind leg amputated 11/09/2010 * Chemo on 12/10, 12/17, 01/10, 01/31

Sweet Sylvie's earthly journey ended on Nov. 3, 2011, one day short of a year since her diagnosis and 6 days short of her one-year ampuversary.  Her family celebrates her life as a sheepdog – ever the puppy, ever silly, ever sweet – and are grateful for our 7 years together.

Happy 1 month ampuversary Zeus!! Just awesome!! What a handsome boy you are too.  We will definitely be celebrating tonight in your honor with lots of treats, cheese and ice cream (a favorite around herelaughlaughlaugh.)  Here's wishing you many, many more ampuversaries and celebrations! Way to go Zeus!

Kami,  Angel Mackenzie, Kobe and Scarlett

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!

Happy 1 month Zeus!!  You look great!

Lucy's front right leg was amputated 12/19/11. Thankfully there was no tumor, but her nerves were found to be degenerative.  Life as a tripawd is Lucy's new adventure!!
