3 or 4 years ago the four legged pack members of current or Spirit Tripawds staged an uprising and tried to rule the world. They called themselves the Monkeydogs or Monkeybutts and were quite entertaining and sometimes slightly annoying since their slogan was 'Monkeybutts Rule, Tripawds Drool'.
Luckily for world peace and in support of Tripawds everywhere the AMBF* formed to combat the usurpers with a much more clever slogan: 'Tripawds Rule, Monkeybutts Drool'.
In more basic terms- it was a way to deal with all the stress related to the tripawd cancer journey. It was an era in Tripawds history, I think most of those who battled on both sides have moved on from here. It does make me feel a little old to know this....picture me in a rocking chair with a raspy voice "I remember the uprising...."

TY GUY, Best Black Lab ever! Diagnosed and had amp in January, 2014. Kicked MRSA's butt. Earned his angel wings on April 16, 2014. Run Free my boy and don't forget a shoe. Ty is a proud member of the " April Angels". Ty sent us Daryl, a Tripawd rescue in Sept. of 2016. Daryl is 5 +or -. We are also Pawrents to Chandler, a Border Collie mix who is 15 and 1/2, Lucy, a Corgi who is 7, 2 minis, 2 horses, and a feisty cat named Zoe. Zoe had a non skeletal Osteosarcoma removed in July 2015. No Chemo, she was at least 16. She is going strong although she is now completely blind. She is now close to 20 and her hobbies are eating and sleeping in front of her personal heater.
