Awwwww sweet puppy pictures! Makes me want a puppy... can almost smell that puppy breath 
Hugs,
Jackie, Bo, Andy, Oscar, Phoebe, and the coolest feral tripawd kitty Huckleberry 
Oh Teresa, I met a beautiful six-month old dane puppy at the vet's this morning and thought of you. Her mom said something about me having or knowing a dane (the way I was gushing). Couldn't quite explain what and how about danes, not in a brief in-passing conversation. But I thought happy (/sad) thoughts about you and Miss Cow.
I've also thought of her as I watch Roxy's ears flap as she chases my car down the road. But that's another story.
hugs
Teri, Roxinator and Angel Isa

OMGOSH! Teresa! Congrats on your new baby..... Paloma is adorable and she is so lucky to have you. I can't even imagine how in love you are right now. So, so, so SOOOOO happy for you!

Oh my dog, I'm so happy for you!!! Just now scrolled back to see the mini cow!! So beautiful.
That is one lucky pupper, even if she hasn't quite worked it all out just yet. I can't wait for the stories.
Lots and lots of hugs to you both
Teri, Roxy and Angel Isa

Hey most adored tripawds friends 💞💞💞💞
Can I start by saying me, Miss Cow, Pedro, Woody and Paloma LOVE you to bits 💘
True as the sun is shining and we live on planet Earth 🌍
Darling Jackie, it's puppy breath alert here, the sweetest puppy breath 💓, I am over the moon happy 🌚😍
Darling Teri, I can picture you dribbling over that Dane, yes, they are irresistible, true gentle giants 🐄 and I can also picture Roxy's ears flapping as she chases your car, it took me right to memories of Angel Eurydice running as fast as the wind on three legs, bless her sweet Angel heart 💕🐮🌟
Darling Wanda, thank you so much for your lovely words, you've got it girl, I am head over heals in love with "little" Paloma and can see Eurydice in her, same personality, same love for people and all animals 😀
Darling Sally, Eurydice was (and still is) so, so, so special, that video sums up our life in less than a minute. She was pure joy to have and a super groovy girl, she made me the happiest Mom on the planet 💖
Paloma is following her footsteps and doing everything Pedro and Woody tell her to do, they are indeed the best babysitters 🐧🐦✊🏽
And now ...

... I wish I had met her ...
