Yes, it is the right picture !

How about that laughing?

Gotta find out where this cow lives and get her to tripawds ! 

Katrina please DO send us the link for Murphy's CBS show !

Me and Eurydice will be sitting in front of the computer waiting to see her cousin Murphy in action way-cool

And many, many, many congratulations on how well Murph's been doing, quite an example to the rest of us clap

Eurydice 77kg/170lb Great Dane limping end of April 2016, amputation (right front leg/osteosarcoma) 4 May 2016 6 courses of carboplatin followed by metronomic therapy, lung mets found 30 Nov 2016. 3 courses of doxorubicin, PET scan 26 Jan 2017 showed more mets so stopped chemo. Holistic route April 2017. Lung X-ray 5 May 2017 showed several tennis ball size mets, started cortisone and diuretics. Miss Cow earned her XXL silver wings 12 June 2017, 13 months and 1 week after amputation and 6 1/2 months after lung mets, she was the goofiest dawg ever and is now happily flying from cloud to cloud woof woofing away :-)

Hi everyone!! 

It was awesome running into another tripawd member picking Murphy up from his appointment such a small world! ☺

As soon as I get the link I will most definately post for everyone to see here!!! 

I am so proud of Murphy he has been a trooper and a fighter through it all. This community has helped me so much through the process and so happy I found it. 

Sending love and tails wags

Hello everyone! I have no idea what I am doing, as I've never been on a forum before! Lol. I am Tripod's mom (the calf)! Wanted to say thank you for sharing our story! It means alot to us! Especially now, as we are trying to raise funds for vet care. They believe they can fix his leg!! ❤️

Welcome Tripod the calf!  You should start your own thread.  We would love to learn more about him! 

Otis - 106 pound lab/Dane mix, lost his right front leg to osteosarcoma on Febuary 9, 2016.  Four rounds of carboplatin completed in April, 2016.  Lung mets August 25, 2016.  Said goodbye too soon on September 4, 2016.   Lost his adopted sister, Tess, suddenly on October 9, 2016. likely due to hemangiosarcoma.  

Wherever they are, they are together.

Thank you everyone for your support! Tripod has a Facebook page! (Tripod, The Three-Legged Calf) if you are interested in following! Tripod gave us a scare yesterday. He can't walk as well as he used to. And he's having a hard time even standing. He also has some swelling in his back leg. We had the vet come out yesterday and give him lots of medicine. Swelling has gone down some, and he is standing better. Still no walking though. It's heartbreaking to watch. But Tripod is tough. He is showing no signs of pain, and his eyes are still full of love and hope. Therefore, I continue to have hope.
