Thank you for the holiday greeting!  "Woofs!" from our furry family to yours!

Merry Christmas!

- Karen, Spirit Sylvie and family

Sweet Silly Sylvie, the Old English Sheepdog

Diagnosed with osteosarcoma 11/04/2010 at almost 7 years of age * Left hind leg amputated 11/09/2010 * Chemo on 12/10, 12/17, 01/10, 01/31

Sweet Sylvie's earthly journey ended on Nov. 3, 2011, one day short of a year since her diagnosis and 6 days short of her one-year ampuversary.  Her family celebrates her life as a sheepdog – ever the puppy, ever silly, ever sweet – and are grateful for our 7 years together.

Merry Christmas to you and your whole crew!
Jackie and Abby

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!

 Bender is almost three weeks post amputation and has been doing great  for the last 4 days.  His energy, appetite and zest for life has returned to levels I haven't seen for months. Christmas morning was awesome.  He ripped open his Christmas stuff and we all went out for a "jammy walk" complete with new slippers for us and new squeaky balls for Bdawg!

 

I know the road ahead will be rocky...but this was truly a Christmas blessing for all of us.

 

Happy Holidays to all of you wonderful people and the dogs that you love!

 

Betsy, Tim and the Bdawg

I hope your Chrismas was awesome. And, Shelby, I hope you got the "royal treatment" all day long, because I don't think you are spoiled enough. Yeah, right!

Beth, Rick and Spirit Sammy

Smilin' Sammy, March 16, 2004 – Dec. 5, 2011
Golden retriever, diagnosed with osteosarcoma in September 2010 — right front leg amputated November 2010. He fought valiantly to stay with us; but a second diagnosis of osteosarcoma, this time in his left front leg, was more than our golden warrior could overcome. He loved his pack — and everyone else he met.

We loved him even more.
Thanks for the pennies, Sammy. They helped.
