Okay. That really made me grin, even though Riley is rolling around on the floor gagging - romantic he's not but he was kind of digging the tune.

What a great love story!! I have to admit that at first I thought it was Cooper.  Ooops..my mistake, Sammy!!  Way to go you two love birds - you both definitely look like you could be soul mates with your black fur, brown eyes, blue collars and big smiles.  What a great video! We give this a 3 paws up!  coolcoolcool 

My sweet golden Mackenzie.  She became my angel on Dec 29, 2010 at the age of 8 1/2  although she was always my angel from the time we brought her home.  She was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in Sept 2009 and officially became a tripawd (front leg) on Nov 5, 2009.  She will be forever in my heart and now she's running free with all of our other tripawd heroes.  I love you Mackenzie!

when you know better, you do better...obviously you don't. 

just cause you're a lonely, red-eyed, monkeybutt doesn't mean you should rain on everyone else's parade. 

those of us in love, feel sorry for you.....

That is so true.  My heart is bursting, and then again so is my tummy.  Mom opened a package for me today and laughed and danced around!  Inside were the best made juju socks she has ever seen, so soft.  She wore a purple sweatshirt today and so she matched her new purple juju socks that have gold flecks perfectly!  Also there was a gift just for me, nummy crunchy dog treats!!!  I ate 3 right after dinnerbig-grin  I think of my brown eyed beautiful Gayle tonight and know what love is.

Sleep well my precious girl, and don't listen to these nay sayers, for you are right.  They can't begin to know how lucky I am.

Mom says she will post a picture tomorrow of her chubby little flintstone feet all dressed in purple and gold.

well riley, charon said it would have to be a 'maculated reception' or something like that for me to have puppies.  i'm already eleven and a half, so i think i'll leave the breeding to the 'kids' and just enjoy my golden years with my man sammy. 

yikes!!!  hope my age doesn't scare him away - i do take care of my figure and hardly a grey hair so far!!!

oh, and it's great sammy's mommy likes the socks, cause i picked them out especially...the gold threads made me think of the twinkle in sammy's eyes.........

That's just sooo sweet!  We need to watch out though, this love thing is kinda contagious. Ranger was just telling me how cute he thinks Rosie is (he's just waiting for me to go to work tomorrow so he can post a love letter of his own.)  We might just end up a tripawds dating site surprised.  Well, at least it's love in the air....it's much better than what is usually in the air around here (I gotta stop giving Ranger veggies embarassed)

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.

So cute, we could have a separate area for internet doggy dating!  Rosie is adorable and her pictures are breath taking!  She needs a "beau" to call her own smiley

I am so happy that one of my bestest friends, ET Gayle, has found love.  And with such a handsome and dashing guy as Sammy.  Just his smile will make you melt.

I love the video!!

Oh Monkeyvampirepirate buddy! I agree! Blah Ack Ack Gag! Get a room you two! or a doghouse or something. Next thing you know they will be posting inappropriate pictures of their legs. (oh, I forgot- that was one of our NY representatives) Anyway Ack!

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.
