Have you listened to the Our Pet's Heath Podcast with Dr. Alex Avery? If not, here's a great reason to get started! The Tripawds community is featured as a reference in this episode:
Is Amputation the Best Option After a Leg Cancer Diagnosis?
Now, if you're facing the prospect of amputation because of cancer in your dog, I've got a fantastic interview with the team at Tripawds. So Renee and Jim have a brilliant, supportive, informative community, all about dogs who have lost a leg for a number of different reasons, but cancer is the big reason.

Hey I keep forgetting to update this topic. We've had quite a few interviews during the last several months. Here's one of them with our friends Patti and Hilary from We Heart Hounds. We chat mainly about things to consider for Tripawd health and safety. Hope you enjoy it!

A HUGE thanks to our friend Amy, Wrigley and Gracie's mom, who wrote this story for us!
Celebrate Three-Legged Dogs on International TriDay
Ten-year-old Wrigley excitedly bounded through the exam doors of Colorado State University Veterinary Teaching Hospital (CSU), pulling his white-coated vet behind him. His three legs didn’t slow him down a bit, even on the slippery tile floors, as he reunited with his four-legged sister Gracie and his mom after his 10-minute blood work appointment for his chemo check-up.
“Does he always run this fast?” asked the young vet. . . READ MORE on Just Labs

In perhaps one of our biggest media appearances since we started in 2007, People Magazine recently told the world that the Tripawds 2022 Dog Art Auction will happen again! This is sooooo exciting! And it's all thanks to Angel Kaiserin's mom Natasha, who inspired this event and continues to give her heart and soul to the Kaiserin Pet Cancer Care Package Program. Check it out!

Hot off the press from The Daily Paws (a sister publication of People Magazine):
These Talented Dog Painters—Yes, You Read That Right!—Donate Their Artwork to Help Pets With Cancer
This isn't a pigment of your imagination! The Tripawd Foundation hosts a unique online auction featuring great art worthy of all the treats!
Our trusty canines have served as artistic inspiration for centuries. From Edouard Manet's classic doe-eyed Cavalier King Charles spaniel (simply titled "A King Charles Spaniel") to Johanne Mangi's more recent fine art dog portraits (this one of a flat-coated retriever is so sweet!) humans have dominated the art world with dogs as their muses.
But beginning May 27, some pretty talented pup painters will have their brushwork recognized in a special online auction to support the Tripawds Foundation . This Livingston, Texas, nonprofit serves "three-legged animals and their people" by providing animal amputee education, information, financial assistance, and other resources. READ MORE
