Awww thanks everyone for sharing. I love to see all the sweet pup pictures (and Maybelle). Athena looks great. Very much a strong soul. Dakota was such a sweet face. Daisy looks to be so happy-go-lucky. And Maybelle, well, I think she needs to meet Erica's Jack.
Adelaide is a young tripawd Husky, from an injury. Her amp was on 10/1/12. She has 4 sisters, Aissa (a senior border collie/chow), Maggie May (a puppy Great Pyrenees), Mathilde and Morrigan and 1 baby brother, Bagheera. We are all watched over by our angel Brendol, who was dx with OSA 1/30/13, amp on 2/6/13, and left us on 8/20/13.

Have a great week, everyone!
Here's my crew (Barret, Sara & Gatbsy) waiting for Monday morning treat time.
Heather & Barret
Barret was diagnosed with Hemangiopericytoma May 16, 2013. Front left leg/scapula/pectoral muscle was amputated on June 11, 2013 and we've never looked back. Follow our story on http://barret.t.....pawds.com/ and read my column on That Pet Blog
Ha! I just noticed that Barret, the one I bought that ugly rug for, is the only one not using it... that little bugger

Heather, that was the first thing I saw! "Hmmm. The tripawd should be on the rug so he doesn't slip, but apparently he doesn't know that." 
Shari
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.
Dakota's thoughtful and erudite blog is at http://shari.tr.....pawds.com/

Christine..... with Franklin in her heart ♥
Franklin, he was the Happiest Dog on Three Legs! Diagnosed 09/26/2012 with Osteosarcoma, amputated 12/4/2012. Had a wonderful 5 1/2 months painfree until he ran for the Bridge on 5/15/2013. Always in my heart, and always a guardian angel of my pack... You can follow his Tripawd Adventures, before and after, in my blog, Frank'n'Farter!
