Surprise! We know your ampuversary is coming up (well, in 2 weeks but we couldn't wait!) and wanted to surprise you!
This is from Cometdog Smartypants and your friend with a camera, Lincoln Stinkypants!
Comet - 1999 to 2011
She departed us unexpectedly January 23, 2011 at the age of 12 1/2.
She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.
Looks like you are a sneaky pants too Miss Comet! Quite a catchy song, and super cute video of Mister happy tappy toes!!
Hoppy early ampuversary Sammy! Must be your 3 month coming up because Chloe is approaching her 4 month amp! (Chloe and Sammy's amp were about a month apart!)
-Chloe's mom
Chloe became a rear amp tripawd on 7-29-10. Another tumor was removed on front leg 2-20-14. Found 3rd tumor on neck 2-2015, but she's still kicking cancer's butt at age 14. Chloe's blog
We love it!! Sammy is so beautiful and always so happy. Very nice work, Cometdog!! You are the best video maker ever!!
Elizabeth - Sammy ROCKS!!
All our big snout love,

Oh my gosh! I am overwhelmed.... this is such a nice suprise!!! I love it.. Mr. Happy Tappy Toes, it is his new nick name!
Thanks Cometdog, you as always are amazing. I am thrilled to have a real live video made from Cometdog.. It is such an honor
Lincolns mom, you! You are too sweet. Thanks for giving the pics to Comet. They are all beautiful, I love my sweet boys' face. He is a smiley, happy, tappy toes.
(How did you get the pic of my hubby? I have covered the camera on the computer with tape... how did you see in?)
Thanks so much! I wonder how I can share this with my family.... I wish I had a talent that I could give back to you guys. I drive really well, anyone need a ride? Able to drive mountain passes in a single day... I can't sing....but... hmmmm.... I will think of something!

Bravo!! Encore!! This is so fun and it made my toes tap and happy for sure!! What a beautiful smile Sammy has - something about that tongue too that brings out the best in him. Cometdog you did it once again!! Just great!
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!
You guys, you are all such wonderful people.
When I get a second today I will start sharing away! I can't wait for my family to actually see Sammy is doing well. They have only been hearing the stories.
We love you all too, and are so glad to be apart of this community.
Cometdog, you got it! I have never been to Vegas but the hubby does say "one day". In the meantime, I will prepare for the best driving experience of my life... I will start in little circles and continue to expand on my success until I can reach the accumulation of my goal, your ultimate richness so I can get a high paying vegas driving job!

That's one gorgeous happy face, Elizabeth and Sammy.
I desperately needed a smile today and that did it for me.
Great work, as always, from Cometdog Smartypants, and amazing pictures from Stinkypants and Rhonda.
