Our story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife
ELEVEN???? How the heck did that happen? Wow Hannah, you keep making those vets look silly with each new milestone! WOOHOOO!
Many, many congratulations to you and your Momma for proving to the world that statistics don't mean a thing. Every dog and cat has their own story, nopawdy has an expiration date stamped on their butt!
Love you sweet girl, enjoy your Bark Box!

Oh, Sally and Happy Hannah, hooray, and such beautiful music to my ears!! I will never have a way with words like you do, but know that I am so happy for you, I'm about to burst !! Hoping many, many more happy anniversaries for you !!
Bonnie & Polly
YAY Hannah, our plus sized Tripawds Plus Size Spokespup and gentle giant! Enjoy your bark box and hope your mom spoils you lots today (not that I have to mention it, because I know she already does every day!)
Love you, Happy Hannah!
Mica, Zeus and Angel Roxy
Hannah! You are just the most precious thing. Wish we could be right there with you to celebrate your every milestone. You are sneaking very carefully up on that one year where your mom has to make a Roxy cake for you!!
Happy 11th, Hannah!
Love, Murphy and Gus
Murphy is a five year old Lab/Chessie cross. He was hit by a car on 10/29/12 and became a Tripawd on 11/24/12. On 2/5/13, he had a total hip replacement on his remaining back leg. He has absolutely no idea that he has only three legs!
UPDATE: Murphy lived his life to the fullest, right up until an aggressive bone lesion took him across the Rainbow Bridge on April 9, 2015 and he gained his membership in the April Angels. Run free, my love. You deserve it!
Hurray from Canada to the lovely Miss Happy Hannah on her 11 month ampuversary!
What more can you ask for....treats in front of the fire in your own bed......presented by a pawrent who loves you and treasures each and every moment she has with you!

Joan and Lily
Our beautiful Lily was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in her front leg on 12/14/11 at age 8 and had amp on 12/16/11. She completed 5 rounds of carbo. She was so brave and kicked cancer's butt daily! She lived life fully for 4 years, 3 months, and 15 days after her amp. My angel is a warrior princess. I miss her so much.
Super Duper Hannah! You look so squishable I just wanna squish squish squish ya. And look at that thrown your momma has set up for her happy highness Hannah. I am glad that it looks like you had a wonderful ampuversary.

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.
