Ruby, Staffy, born June 2022, became a Tripawd, November 2023, adopted January 2024.
Also Angel Tripawd Meg (aka The Megastar), who died in April 2023, aged 14, after seven glorious years on three, and Angel Staffies Elsie Pie and Bille. In the pawprints of giants...
LOL here! Love these two. Elsie Pie I'll work on it! May have to win a small lottery first! Maybe someday I'll get to meet you two in person. Enjoy your new cuddle friends and sending you both all my love. You too Clare I miss you! It truly was a magical weekend! And Meg and Elsie Pie you made my day!
Love from Auntie Linda
OMD I think it just really hit me! I just got my very own special video from Elsie Pie to treasure forever! I'm her special Auntie! It says so right on Facebook! Me! Little ole me from Central WI! I'm truly humbled and feel so special!!
OMG!!! How lucky is Auntie Linda?!? Her own special message from the one and the only Elsie Pie (and I presume Meg is camera shy today?). So adorable!!!
And how lucky were Meg and Elsie to get special toys from Auntie Linda since they couldn't join at the party!
Hugs and love!!!

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
