This senior dog know how to party. Losing a leg hasn’t slowed her down!

I recently got together with this pretty lady for a walk in the park and we had a blast. Being a Los Angeles city park we didn’t get to run off leash. But we sure wanted to…

Sami is nearly fourteen years old! And she just had her amputation a couple months ago. I think she’s doing great, and will only continue to get stronger.
