I look especially pretty in pink!

Hahahahah! Just wanted to hijack your monkeybutt topic some more!!! Now any monkeybutt who wants to know what's going on here has to wade through Tripawd Warrior Princesses talking about ourselves!!! 😛

Abby, TWP Extraordinaire

Abby: Aug 1, 2009 – Jan 10, 2012. Our beautiful rescue pup lived LARGE with osteosarcoma for 15 months – half her way-too-short life. I think our "halflistic" approach (mixing traditional meds + supplements) helped her thrive. (PM me for details. I'm happy to help.) She had lung mets for over a year. They took her from us in the end, but they cannot take her spirit! She will live forever in our hearts. She loved the beach and giving kisses and going to In-N-Out for a Flying Dutchman.

I'll bet you look good in pink, Miss Abby. And so does the Woo! And so does Miss Gayle.

I still can't get over the fact that she doesn't touch up her muzzle to get rid of the greys... Rio hasn't had a black muzzle in years... But then I haven't had a grey-free head of hair since forever either. Must run in our family!

Hijack, hijack, hijack... Neener, neener, neener...

Diagnosed with Mast Cell Cancer in June 2007. Left rear leg amputated Feb. 8, 2011.
Mets discovered Aug. 31, 2011. Read more of Rio's story here.

Spirit Samson was Spirit Tripawd Daisys four legged "brother" and ruled as the self proclaimed head of the Monkeybutt Federations East Coast Division. Lady Chunky Monkey stayed from Oct 2011 and left for the bridge in Apr 2012. Miss Perdy is left and has some big pawprints to fill.

That's hysterical... You might need an extra page in the monkeybutt calendar!

And I will confess, Abby *can* be a little gossipy... and she wants to always be the prettiest girl... She really is quite the Princess.

So my baby Monkeybutt Bro got his own profile (yawn) and then I heard he sent in a submission for that Monkeypoopybutt calender idea of theirs.

Well I've got a photo (remember this one on my famous blog?!) that I think should be in the calendar with a great quote by Jackie, Abby's Mom!

"YES… FedEx all the Monkeybutts! To where though? Maybe a secluded island…"

I love, love, love that picture of Monkeybutt Squirt. I definitely remember it from when Barney arrived!

I stand by that quote!
Jackie

 

Abby says: Gayle - I don't hate you.... I'm just a little jealous that you got to do that professional photo shoot and I'm jealous of how the photographer matched that pink background so perfectly to your tongue. Nopawdy EVER tried to match the background of a photo to my tongue... sigh. I thought I was the only supermodel TWP around here... but clearly I have heavy competition. Even from the older broads! But I still loves you Miss Gayle and you are still one of my big time idols!

Kisseskisskisskiss

Oh - and p.s. Monkeybutts - HIJACKING YOUR TOPIC AGAIN!!!! Like Rio said, Neener neener. rasberryrasberryrasberry

Thank you Chilidawg. I am always working on my beauty sleep. All Mom has to do is make her special whistle, shake my leash, or put on our green backpack and I am up and ready to go for my walk, jog, training, or whatever she wants to do. When we return, it is back to my beauty sleep. Oh what a life I have. Woof Woof Woof woof.
