I didn't pick the music.. But it is Sammy out having fun in the backyard. I cut it at the appropriate time
Oh my gosh, I just turned up the music to see what they were saying. I picked the auto music thing for length of video. HOW INAPPROPRIATE! I laugh a little, because it can't get worse than that! I will try and fix it in youtube. Gak!

Great Music!!! Looks like Sammy is having a blast to me. Don't cut it..............it's educational. There are probably lots of folks wondering how a 3 legged dog takes care of business. I can assure you Sammy is miles ahead of Fortis in that department 
Sammy looks great.

LOL! Well, it says it will take a couple of minutes to re-music it. I pray no one else is going to watch this before then
I put in a couple of others too, music is on the way and I picked it, but there wasn't that much to choose from. I think Sammy looks great too. It is round 2 of chemo today, so this is our way of sticking to the good times.
Thanks for watching!

You go Sammy! Thanks for sharing the videos, but now you have us curious about the original music.

It was just me talking with Sammy. I was trying to be one of the cool kids, but the heebie jeebies are apparently still in effect. It hasn't changed yet.... My husband is laughing so hard right now. He just got home and he knows my computer problems and says it could only happen to me.
My thought is maybe there is some guy out there who picks the music and is really mean....

Did I miss it??? Drats! When I was reading your post I was laughing so hard....I can only imagine what was on there - it must have been really really good. Sammy looks so dashing as he's trotting out to take a you know what. He looks awesome! You must be so proud of him!! Takin care of business (hey maybe that's the song you should use for this video) way to go Sammy! 
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!

LOL! I am so glad that has changed, thank goodness yes you missed it. It was probably the worst song to watch a tripawd video to. It was whispering at first about bodies hitting the floor then it changed to screaming it with this hard rock theme... Wow. Thanks and this still isn't the music I like but much improved over the original. He is a cutie, and he is doing so well. The video of him with all his legs was taken the day before his leg fractured. It is hard to imagine that little limp could've killed him.

OH! I missed the fun stuff! I loved the videos but I wanted to see the original!
Go Sammy go!
What was the original song??? Someone fill me in!
Oh Elizabeth, you are the life of party even when you don't try to be! I'm laughing and I don't even know why!

Oh, look at that big Happy Tail. What a happy Sammy! I guess I missed the 'bad' music too. I have a really bad habit of not watching some of the videos until I need a lift, so I'm just getting to these. Sammy is awesome, and put a smile on my face. Thank's big guy!

Sorry Elizabeth and Sammy but I just had to post the original music to your video for all those that missed it. The music grows on you after a while . Fortis and I have been running around, head butting, howling, breaking glass…………..trashing the house. We can't get the lyrics out of our head 
Seriously your videos were great. I can't wait for more and your music selections well they simply just ROCK! I was reading you all wrong 
Thanks for sharing.

Oh...My....God....
ROLF! Fortis and Brett, bad bad bad boys!
That is actually a super funny video, I love the gyrations of the "characters". I will have to go pick this CD up for when I am driving, there is nothing like inspirational music to set the pace. I feel a strange desire to go break something... RRRARRRRHH!
That makes my morning,
truly embarrassing....Thanks Texas Terror,

This is so something my younger brother would listen to. Too bad I missed Sammy trotting to the death music!
Sammy looks great in his videos by the way!

Um, I listened to that song the other day while I was working out. What does that say about me?
Thank you Brett for posting it, as I too, came late to the party (or potty, if you are paying attention to the final video). 🙂 By the time I got here the music was perfectly serene.
Nice Job Elizabeth! It looks like you got it. I guess you can't be in our computer losers club. Too bad. 🙂
