I have uploaded a new video of Rusty to Youtube:

He is doing more swimming & jumping this year which I focused on; I think two surfin' videos are enough. Jan spotted a small video camera(1/2 the size of a pack of cigarettes) on QVC that will go underwater and shoot 720 HD videos, for less than $60. I am still learning its underwater capabilities, but wanted to get this video uploaded.

Chuck & Rusty

Rusty is a Labradoodle who was diagnosed with level 3 Fibrosarcoma on January 16th, 2010 and had his left hind leg amputated on January 25th, 2010 five days before his 18 month birthday. Please see Rusty's blog @rusty.tripawds.com. He is putting up one heck of a fight against this terrible disease.

Rusty,

You are a terrific swimmer; I really enjoyed your video. My favorite part was the underway scenes. You ROCK and are an aquatic sensation! I may be a golden, but I've never enjoyed the water. I would like to share a lounge chair with you out by the pool, though.

Hope

Cute! Love the underwater bits!

What a rock star!
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.
