I see Nor Cal is having a Pawty and I sure wish Maddie and I could come to that…..and it made me start wondering if there are any Texas folks and their Tripawds on this forum?

We posted this on our Facebook page, hopefully we'll be able to gather some folks together!

Hi, Martin and I live in Austin, TX.  He had his surgery 12 days ago, got his staples removed today.  What does a Tripawd Pawty entail?

 

Thanks,

Trina

Hi Trina and Martin,

Welcome to Tripawds- is Trix your pup?

I'm in CA so won't be at your Tripawd party- but we in Nor Cal get together once a month or so at a dog park and let the pups play (or lay around and watch) and exchange stories and help each other out on this tripawd journey.

 

You might consider posting your tripawd story here on Tripawds in the Share Your Story forum so we get to know you and your pup.

There are a couple of us who have lost our tripawds who are in Texas.  I'm in Orange, and Pattie (FortisMom) is in Austin.

We honor our fellow November Five members who will always remain forever in my heart: Nova – the lone survivor, live proud and long; Spirits Max, Cherry, & Tika – who made half the journey with us and greeted Trouble at the Bridge

Oh cool. I'm in Houston, so we are not that far from each other.

I have no idea myself what a Tripawd PAWTY would entail, I just thought at some point if we had several of us fairly close, that it could be fun to meet up sometime.

The 3 of our babies are very recent Tripawds too.  Trina, my Maddie is at 18 days post op. And Cocoa's was a month before Maddie's.

This forum has been invaluable to us.

Oh, cool to know that there are several of us. Once a Tripawd Mom, always a Tripawd Mom.

And I know Trouble just earned her wings too….:(

Tripawd Pawty n. (aka: Tripawd Pawrty, Tripawd Party) 1. Any scheduled gathering of one or more three legged dogs so their people can meet and share stories; 2. A chance encounter with another three legged dog and his or her person resulting in six legged fun. ex: The 2009 Colorado Tripawds gathering of three legged dogs introducing spokespup Wyatt Ray Dawg turned out to be quite a Tripawd Pawty!

Plans have unfortunately changed. We were headed that way when we got the news of a close friend's unexpected passing. Just another reminder that cancer sucks.

We're now headed back to Northern California, and will go back to Colorado from there. Catch y'all next time!

Hi again, Martin is my pup's name.  I'm not crazy about the name but it's what he came with.  And he has so many little pet names, it's not a problem.  smile

 

Thanks for the suggestion, I have posted "Martin's Story" to the Share Your Story forum.  It got kinda long…whatever
