Snow pics of Ty! His brother Chandler had to get in on the action. Ty still not eating
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.
Oh yeah!!! Grinning over here! This is Ty's version of laying in the shade on a sunny day.....which "most" dogs prefer over the sow!! But, then gain, o e thing we kow for sure......FOR SURE..... Ty is NOT like most dogs! You and your brother sure like the snow! Glad the weather is working in your favor!
And Chandler, yo rank right up in the handsome category too!! Very cuddy looking fella'!
Chandler uses the snow as a chair and Ty uses it as his cozy bed! LOL!
LOVE these pictures...LOVE seeing Ty enjoying the snow!
Melting hearts yet again over here!
LOVE!

Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
These are great photos but they make me feel really, really cold and guilty about our 80+ weather out here!!!
Ty looks great!!! I know he isn't feeling well but he's outside and enjoying nature! That's a good thing!
Hugs,

Our story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife
I let him lay out there while I shoveled snow for a bit. Felt it might lower his fever.

And is "Nurse Lucy" more of a summertime girl?? Of course, she's so "tiny" compared to these fuys, she would sink up over her ears!

No, she was out there. I kept trying to get her picture, but she was running all around.

Ty looks very happy relaxing in the snow.....good boy Ty! Now you just have to start eating and get rid of that fever.
I'm glad to see that Chandler and Nurse Lucy were with you too - all of you observing your Mom while she shoveled snow.....sounds the same as things around my house.
Many hugs and pawsitive thoughts for a better day today.
