What about a picture of a tripawd where their tripawd-ness isn't visible?Ideally, we want to show Tripawds in all there awesomeness! That's why we'll be using the photo of Sassy standing proud. But as you can see, it's not totally obvious that she's missing a limb.
So yeah, while photos depicting running, swimming and playing around on three legs are best, we'll gladly accept other pics if they meet the production requirements.
Thanks!
OK, I actually found a photo that would probably work w/ Ellie standing. It isn't my favorite picture (that is just a head shot I have of her) but it would probably fit the theme better. It does have some highlight blow-outs but that is what you get taking pictures of a black and white dog! 
Another question---it says "print ready", so do you want us to do any adjustments and cropping or do you want just the original unedited photo? I have a high res version I can send regardless.
Active 10+ Pyr mix suddenly came up lame with ACL tear in left rear leg. Scheduled for a TPLO but final pre-op x-rays indicated a small suspicious area, possibly OSA, which could have caused the ACL tear. Surgeon opened the knee for TPLO but found soft bone. Biopsy came back positive for OSA. Became a Tripawd 9/18/14. Carbo6 with Cerenia and Fluids. Pain free and living in the moment. Crossed the Bridge on 7/12/15 after probable spread of cancer to her cervical spine. A whole lifetime of memories squeezed into 10 months. Here's her story: Eloise

Let me know if one of these would work or if you think there are other ones that would.
Thank you.

Beautiful, however, these images are too small. We really must have high resolution files for the printed calendar. Please review the specs and email the original photo, or the largest file you have and we'll see what we can do. Thanks!

Our story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife
Hi! As usual, I cannot decide since Mac is so dang photogenic. Here are the top contenders (wasn't sure about vertical or horizontal).
I emailed you all three in the highest quality format.
And here's the vertical version:
Let me know what you think! I have literally thousands of high quality photos of Mac, so there are endless options if you want a different one 🙂
And just for good measure, here are backups just in case:
Oh my gosh I'm sorry, I'm probably 'that person' who can't pick a dang picture. But it's much easier when other people make this very important decision!!!
We adopted Mac in June 2014 from the GRCGLAR and he is our little baby boy, despite the fact that he is 11.5! Almost a year of bliss turned into complete devastation when he started limping on his front right leg and it was discovered on April 16, 2015 that he has bone cancer - specifically Osteosarcoma. We were luckily directed to Tripawds by our oncologist, Dr. Avenelle Turner, which changed our lives and guided us through the amputation process.
Read more about Mac's incredible story on his blog: http://teammac.tripawds.com/
Got 'em! Mac's photos are all great! 🙂
