Don't you need three legs to be part of the Mod Pawd? You look more like the Admin pawd to me.

I have a new word to add to the Tripawd dictionary:

Pawday

Pronunciation: pô/dā

Function: noun

Etymology:

Early Tripawdish, from paw, meaning dog foot, and day, a period marked by the rotation of the earth on its axis.

1. The anniversary of the loss of a leg, and therefore a paw.

2. A day when each Tripawd Hero is honored and bestowed with many beef products, squeaky toys, and tennis balls.

3. Synonym for ampuversary

Woohoo! Tripawds Rule!

How about "Onpawlogist". Ex: when Cadence goes for her Chemo, she sees the "Onpawlogist." smiley

Cadence Faye: Born 10/30/04, stepped into our hearts 12/23/2004. Rear leg tumor found 7/24/11 by mom and dad, Xray on 7/25/11, Osteosarcoma suspected 7/26/11, amputation 7/29/11, Carboplatin started 8/23. Met free so far!
