We were so much prettier in our hirsute youth.but pretty is as pretty does, and we have some good recent shots... Will have to decide by the 4th.
I am going to have to have my own contest to pick an entry for the contest... Having a hard time deciding...

Hi Dawn, your future posts will not have to wait for approval.
I'm not seeing your picture . Maybe Admin or Jerry can rescue the photo you posted otherwise here again are the instructions for Adding Photos to a Post. If that doesn't work you can Contact Tripawds here.
Looking forward to seeing your picture of your Tripawd pup!

Hello All! We are new at this, but didn't want Monte to be left out! Monte was my rescue (I was his foster... turned foster failure!). His left front leg was shattered from an accident in his previous place. He went all the way from Knoxville, TN to Memphis to a specialist who, unfortunately, couldn't save his leg. He has been a tripug since January 22, 2013... (That's his little sister Puggy in the background!)
Here is Cooper's entry (sorry I messed it up the first time!)
(and here is Cooper's Tripawds blog https://k2k9.tripawds.com/)
Cooper (11/11/11 - 3/29/24) was a hound-collie mix "mutt" who was badly injured as a puppy and lost his leg at 7 months of age. We adopted him after the operation. He' was wonderful companion and comforting presence in our family for 12 years. He lived a fabulous life on three legs and was an inspiration to all. We will never forget our Coopie-Doopie-Doo.
