What a doll! Where are you In Washington? We are in Idaho...neighbors.
Kathi and Murphy
Murphy is a five year old Lab/Chessie cross. He was hit by a car on 10/29/12 and became a Tripawd on 11/24/12. On 2/5/13, he had a total hip replacement on his remaining back leg. He has absolutely no idea that he has only three legs!
UPDATE: Murphy lived his life to the fullest, right up until an aggressive bone lesion took him across the Rainbow Bridge on April 9, 2015 and he gained his membership in the April Angels. Run free, my love. You deserve it!

On the 12th Bailey will be 1 month post surgery.. She is finally out of her bandages as of this week due to a delay in her stitches healing 100%. Most of her staples are out. She starts Carboplatin on Thursday. She jumped on our bed last night for the first time.

WAY TO GO BAILEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and, let us tell you, the 12th is a MARVELOUS day to celebrate your ampuversary every month!!! on 12/12 Jill will have her one year ampuversary!!!!!!
Good luck with the chemo, let us know what questions you have....Jill sailed right on through chemo, with the exception of having to delay twice due to low white blood cells. Don't freak if that happens, its TOTALLY normal!
Keep up the great work Bailey!

Thanks for the great update! Just be very careful with her jumping down on that one remaining front leg! For lots of strengthening and ongoing care tips, consider downloading Loving Life On Three Legs now available in the Tripawds e-books library.
