So I'm sitting here thinking...and it occurs to me that I have two special needs pups...and two Monkeybutts. I have an EPI pup who is hell on wheels, and a tripawd who taunts him because she can have regular untreated food and he can't.
So my tripawd taunts my EPI...
...and my EPI causes trouble for everyone, including my tripawd.
...who then proceeds to taunt him more.
Will the cycle never end?! IS THIS THE END OF THE UNIVERSE AS WE KNOW IT?!
Proud mommy of a Belgian Malinois tripawd named Lizzie, who is completely spoiled rotten, loves kids, and will be going into therapy dog training as soon as I can afford it. You can find her blog here.
Also proud mommy to Vito, 3(?) yr old GSD. Adoption weight: 58lbs. Current weight: 90lbs. Goal weight: 85-90lbs (ACHIEVED!). Tested positive for EPI on March 30th, 2011 and stable ever since.

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!

My brain is going to implode ..................after I look up all the big words and find out what this means!!! I understood the words, "monkeybutt" and "tripawd" and that's as far as I got!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank goodness Monkeybutt doesn't have a dictionary handy, or we could be in for some trouble!

Did I mention how exceedingly jealous Ms. Priss gets when I play fetch with Vito? It's not that she wants to play too, if I hold him back and throw the ball she doesn't go after it. She just doesn't want HIM to play fetch. To the point she'll steal his ball or cuss me out! I'll have to get video next time, it's truly hilarious.
