This is more than a year old, but I know how much Sally loves videos so I thought I would put this here again. I am putting in the link to the original post because there are other fun replies in the original thread. Here ya go, Sally!
From abandoned puppy to Tripawd Warrior Dude, Dakota became one of the 2011 February Furballs due to STS. Our incredibly sweet friend lived with grace and dignity till he impulsively raced over the Bridge on 12-15-12.

Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
ACL tear in right hind leg 12/5/12 and scheduled ACL repair surgery 12/21/12. Pre-op xrays revealed osteosarcoma. Amputation 12/28/12. Chemo (carboplatin) started Jan 10, 2013 and ended on April 5, for a total of 5 doses. He handled carbo like a champ! No side effects. We started metronomic therapy at his third chemo and have been also doing some holistic treatments. He's a lively, playful 10 year old huskie-boarder collie and a very proud member of the Winter Warriors! Our love. Our funny little guy!
frustrated because i added one to youtube so i could add it but I can't get the darn thing added

Sally, are you saying that you can't load the first video, the one of Dakota and Evelyn?
As for the Ray and Rae dogs, there is indeed a story. Maybe Jerry or Admin will tell you...The short answer is you have to be a GSD to be a Ray or a Rae. So they are all kissing cousins, I guess you'd say.
Anyway, let me know if you cannot load the video with Dakota and Evelyn and I'll see if I can get some help. I could watch it when I started this thread earlier today.

You do all realize we are enabling Sally to continue her picture and video addiction?!?!?!?!

Spirit Shooter was a Miniature Australian Shepherd who was diagnosed with a MCT and had a LF amp 1/28/13 at 13-1/2 years old.
Shooter crossed the Bridge on 8/28/13, his 7 month ampuversary and two weeks from his 14th birthday.
Yep Luanne I guess that is what we do best huh
I forgot to add Sassy is the higher pitch you hear. Bosch is the big howl LOL

The Rae/Ray dogs are all from the Oaktown Pack, which came about as a result of German Shepherd Rescue of Northern California, which our friends Martha and Ralph were involved with. Codie Rae, a rescued Tripawd of theirs, was named in honor of her Momma Martha's first GSD, Rosa Rae. Then Tripawds Spokesdog Wyatt came along into their pack, and he was also a rescue Tripawd so Martha named him Wyatt Ray Dawg (the Dawg is in honor of yours truly, Jerry G. Dawg). Travis Ray followed him, then Austin Ray. Now, all of these dawgs are part of the Oaktown pack but Wyatt belongs to Jim & Rene. Clear as mud?

Makes sense to me, but we speak GSD here anyway. So could Okey Dokey Smokey I'mSoDamnExcited Cletus Goober Kemp be a "Ray", too, or would he have to be a tripawd GSD? Not sure where I'd fit the "Ray" in but just wondering.
GREAT videos. Superb howling. YO, indeed. We LOVE howlers!!!!!

Liz, I believe that Smokey can be a Ray. I don't think leg count matters, but if it matters to you we can tie up one of his legs underneath him.
And Jerry, you got one important thing wrong. You said that Wyatt belongs to Jim and Rene. What a silly thing to say! Backwards, buddy, backwards!

OMD! This is one sick group! Ad I mean that in a loving way, of course!
Luanne, I jave been in Vdeoholics Anonymous, vut hey kicked me out because I ,ept taking videos of the meetngs"!
Shari...yeah, it's Evelyn's video that I'm not seeing......see the GSD fine. I'm gettng the shakes over here! I need m video!! Tie up Smokey's leg? OMD!
Michelle, that was one fine musical you've going on. I actually thought Sassy was the big howl! Interesting. Don't you jist love hearing that? Has to make you smile.
Liz, your meds are wearg off.....I'm just saying.....
Jerry Rae! Yes, I do understand tje Ray/Rae thing now.

Thank you for the vote, Shari; Smokey is deeply humbled to add a "Ray" in honor of the Tripawds West GSD's to his ever-increasing list of names. No need to tie a leg up; when Roxie came hopping home from ampu surgery he developed a limp of his own. Have a pic somewhere of him wearing his Solidarity Sock in support of his older sis, and to protect his owie paw. Has since had Solidarity 'Rhea and Puke, but we won't go into that. Roxie just thinks he's an idiot, but a good companion.
Meds? Mom don't take no stinkin' meds....and that may be the problem!

Here Sally is another video. Not the best quality because it was taken from a cheap camera but you get to see Bosch & Sassy play.
