Two dogs I wish I could adopt, sooo much:
I posted about her previously, but terrier-mix, Tasha is still looking for a forever home. She's at Green County Humane Society. Here's her page: http://greencou.....-Dogs.html
And I just heard from my sister-in-law about Stacks, a female Shepherd mix, was intentionally shot and, post-amputation, is up for adoption at the Wisconsin Humane Society (in Milwaukee): http://www.wihu.....g.aspx
Tell your friends!
Gerry has been a tripawd since 12/16/2009.
He was a shelter dog with a mysterious past and an irrepairable knee injury.

Oh my goodness, such sweet babies. I hope they find great homes. I cant believe that one sweet baby's story!!
Some people really suck.
Abby: Aug 1, 2009 – Jan 10, 2012. Our beautiful rescue pup lived LARGE with osteosarcoma for 15 months – half her way-too-short life. I think our "halflistic" approach (mixing traditional meds + supplements) helped her thrive. (PM me for details. I'm happy to help.) She had lung mets for over a year. They took her from us in the end, but they cannot take her spirit! She will live forever in our hearts. She loved the beach and giving kisses and going to In-N-Out for a Flying Dutchman. Tripawds blog, and a more detailed blog here. Please also check out my novel, What the Dog Ate. Now also in paperback! Purchase it at Amazon via Tripawds and help support Tripawds!
Adorable! What a happy face the little girl has!
Comet - 1999 to 2011
She departed us unexpectedly January 23, 2011 at the age of 12 1/2.
She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.
beautiful pups, hope they can find their forever homes for the holidays!!! isn't it sad how disgusting humans can be…a pathetic species at times…

Life is good, so very, very good!!! Gayle enjoyed each and every moment of each and every wonderful day (naps included). She left this world December 12, 2011 – off on a new adventure.
Love Never Ends
The day will come when one of these sweet babies is close enough to me so I can adopt. I hope they find a loving home soon!
Charon, I couldn't agree more!
WORD!
Tasha's a cutie.

Oh, what cuties - look like nice dogs too. I hope Tasha finds her home soon. It is funny (and maybe in a good way) that they don't even mention her being a tripawd in the short description, even if it is obvious in the photo.
Hoppy American Thanksgiving to all you southerners (and to those of you in Alaska too!)
Tasha is still looking - see above!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand check out Jack! Now available for adoption. Right now! Now, now, now! (Too much?) He's like a stretched out Comet 
A 3.75 legged dog - close enough!

You've got to watch the video too! They make great videos at the Humane Society in Milwaukee.

That Jack is a sweet and cute dog - and apparently already found a home! What a great ad, with their official descriptions of "goofball" and "orange people".
Hmmm...Jack's description says "No Longer Available"??? I hope this is great news!

He is still there!! OMG!!! If he had floppy ears…that would have been too hard to look at!!! He has a side blaze and white butt like she did! That was her coloring before she got old and almost white!
