ooooh- Isabelle who is that? Probably more friendly than my step sis.
But don't worry- I'm staying with the tripawds. I don't live with one, but every time I am around them I get lots of treats!
It's just Evelyn... those eyes, that tongue!! Hey, does your mom call you tippy? I heard bulldog folks call babes like you a tippy.

Oh My! Monkeymadness!
Obie, Maggie and I are sending you and Tani The Good Tripawd Vibes! Stay with us Obie! Monkeydogs are for monkeyminds!
Hugs to you and Tani! Gotta go! Gotta play some ball. We started a ball team now that Trouble is here! (we were missing a good hind catcher!)
Angel Comet
Comet - 1999 to 2011
She departed us unexpectedly January 23, 2011 at the age of 12 1/2.
She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.
Spirit Sadie had the biggest, sloppiest tongue ever!
...and Ranger was just giving Monkeybutt a phthhh (kind of like raspberries)
Here's his big boy tripawds tongue:
Sadie is my 9yr old Rott/Shepherd mix. Diagnosed with osteosarcoma in her right scapula 1/28/10. Our brave girl had her amputation 2/13/10 and her last chemotherapy on 6/6/10. Unfortunately, a tumor appeared in her back right leg and on 10/7/2010 Sadie's earthly journey came to an end. On 10/24/2010 we adopted Ranger, a handsome Rott/Lab mix tripawd (got hit by a car) I think Sadie sent him to us.

Obie, this is my friend Rugby. He's very friendly, but sometimes he likes to kiss me so much I have to show him my teeth….His mom is my massage therapist.
Ranger…I think I might love you…..just don't tell Cooper...
Isabelle
Sure does seem that Tripawds have alot of "things" sticking out all the time (wink wink)
.....hehehehehe
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.
Do you have what it takes to be a Monkeybutt? Find out more at the Monkeybutt Federation
Gotta chime in on this one, but my buddy could hang with the best of them
My buddy Gus had a left front amputation on April 7, 2010 and lived a great life until July 26,2010
OK Dan- fess up- that's got to be a photo shop of a cow tongue on Gus! Or maybe he is just trying to get rid of the woodchuck taste?
Rugby is really cute!! I wish he was closer so Obie would have a friend.
Oh yea- I got this thread really off track and I forgot to say that the video was very well done!
And Angel Comet-

ummmm, what hind are you trying to catch?
Karen and the pugapalooza
OMG who knew we all had such big tongues!

Thanks Isabelle, you sure are pretty! My Mom's from Chicago and I've been trying to tell her that we need to go on a road trip, but she says it's too far to drive (I don't understand that at all, do you?) I've never ate cat food before, if I come visit do you think I can try some?

To be honest, his tongue wasn't that big normally, but that was his last trophy, he got that just 6 days before we lost him, and that was a young one, but it took all he had to get it, he even got a battle scar under his eye, and believe it or not, he ate the whole thing a couple hours later. When he was in his prime, it would have taken him about 3 seconds to get one that young, he never got a scrape like that even with all the coon he got, and coon are tough compared to a woodchuck. He was pretty much himself right up to the last couple days, he just didn't have much stamina.
