I couldn't begin to say how special Sammy is to us.  Living and laughing with and loving this wonderful boy is priceless.

I'm a year late, but as I've taken Gerry photos over the last year I've hoped to have a creepy Gerry photo to share:

Gerry has been a tripawd since 12/16/2009.

He was a shelter dog with a mysterious past and an irrepairable knee injury.

I had to browse this since we weren't members back then...these pictures are hilarious!  I will have to find one of Sam to post - Tate's so stoic, he looks the same in every picture.

These are great Howloween pics. I browsed through a bunch of our pup pics to see if I could find something scary to share -- but the scariest thing I could find was glow-in-the-dark eyes and Monkeybutts wearing bunny ears.

These pics are hysterical. This was all before our time the first go-round (in fact... today is the one year anniversary of when we found out Abby had cancer so most of this went on just before we joined). I paged through the whole thing. So many scary pups!

Here is pretty much my only scary pic of Abby. This is her first play date last year post-amp, with her best friend, Dakota. Clearly, Dakota is terrified...

Image Enlarger

I also have a scary video...   Terrifying! surprised

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. Tripawds blog, and a more detailed blog here. Please also check out my novel, What the Dog Ate. Now also in paperback! Purchase it at Amazon via Tripawds and help support Tripawds!

Here is the pug girls contribution.  Both of these were taken in December 2007. 

The first one is more eerie than scary- for some reason Tani's eyes always glow green.

The second one is Maggie.  I inverted the image; she reminds me of the flying monkeys in Wizard of Oz. Those damn things scared the crap out of me when I was little- and they still creep me out today.

Thanks, Karen. I have watched that many times and I always still laugh when she pulls that first Cujo face. If I had filmed 5 more seconds, right after that she was completely kissing my hubby. She is mostly sweet, but Cujo comes out now and then...

And I LOVE the flying monkey Maggie! (NOT a Monkeybutt though! That would be truly terrifying.) Those things scared the heck out of me too as a kid. Nightmare city.

That Wyatt pic is very scary. And pretty funny!
