What a lucky dog to go on such an excellent adventure.....and how awesome that you are making memories that will last a lifetime! Thank you for sharing with us - it's safe to say I won't ever be as well-traveled as your beautiful girl is!

Paula and Nitro

Nitro 11 1/2  yr old Doberman; right front amp June 2014. Had 6 doses carboplatin, followed by metronomic therapy. Rocked it on 3 legs for over 3 years! My Warrior beat cancer, but couldn't beat old age. He crossed the Bridge peacefully on July 25, 2017, with dignity and on his terms.  Follow his blog entitled "Doberman's journey"

Hey Sally, Donna and Paula 💜💙💚

Yeah, we are rocking 🎉 🚀 and today there were more excellent news as she went for blood and urine tests and blood was (again) "better than mine" said the onco👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Good thing we've stopped having caipirinhas at the beach, Eurydice 🍹🍹🍹🍹

Urine results will take a few days but she is in great form generally💪🏽

Much, much love and an avalanche of hugs to you girls and cuddles to your fluffies 💗💗💗💗🐾🐾🐾🐶🐶🐶

Eurydice 77kg/170lb Great Dane limping end of April 2016, amputation (right front leg/osteosarcoma) 4 May 2016 6 courses of carboplatin followed by metronomic therapy, lung mets found 30 Nov 2016. 3 courses of doxorubicin, PET scan 26 Jan 2017 showed more mets so stopped chemo. Holistic route April 2017. Lung X-ray 5 May 2017 showed several tennis ball size mets, started cortisone and diuretics. Miss Cow earned her XXL silver wings 12 June 2017, 13 months and 1 week after amputation and 6 1/2 months after lung mets, she was the goofiest dawg ever and is now happily flying from cloud to cloud woof woofing away :-)

Hey there Summer 💗

Yes, the bigger they are the more they are couch potatoes 🍈🍈🍈😂

No offence to small and mid size dogs  whom I adore too (my first dog was a Daschund 🌭) but the huge ones allow us to hug them fully and properly ✊🏼💝 and are ideal blankets during Winter❄️❄️❄️ although not so great during Summer 🔥🔥🔥

Sending you a tornado 🌪of hugs and an avalanche 🌬🌬🌬of kisses and super cuddles to your gorgeous sweetie pies 🐾🐾🐾🐾
