Yesterday we volunteered as trail help at a pee-wee sled dog race here in Alaska. One of the young ladies racing the 3-dog course had a lead dog that was a tripawd! It was great to see the dog grins as they went by - they were quite speedy and the kiddo placed well with her team. Reminded me of Calpurnia and made me smile.

How awesome!
Did you run after the team and throw Tripawds.com cards or bandannas at them?

How awesome. I am sure there was a huge smile on your face watching that team. 🙂
Karen I could see her running after them only to hug that dog (oh and maybe throw some bandanas
)
