I did it! I did it before I left for BlogPaws - I assembled the Tripawds photo album! I made a PDF version so everyone here could see it too: http://www.that.....ollage.pdf
Sorry to be so brief, but I'm in Vegas {baby} for BlogPaws then I'll be travelling to San Jose for another conference (non-pet related... boo) then a red-eye back to Lancaster, PA just in time for Proud Pet Day on May 17th. Busy as a bee these days! I'll be blogging my BlogPaws and Proud Pet Day adventures on That Pet Blog.. it all starts here.
Wishing everyone a happy May. Hugs to everyone!
Barret was diagnosed with Hemangiopericytoma May 16, 2013. Front left leg/scapula/pectoral muscle was amputated on June 11, 2013 and we've never looked back. Follow our story on http://barret.t.....pawds.com/ and read my column on That Pet Blog

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
There's Barrett. I was just thinking of messaging you last night that we needed some Barrett pictures. 😀 Have a blast at BlogPaws!
Adelaide is a young tripawd Husky, from an injury. Her amp was on 10/1/12. She has 4 sisters, Aissa (a senior border collie/chow), Maggie May (a puppy Great Pyrenees), Mathilde and Morrigan and 1 baby brother, Bagheera. We are all watched over by our angel Brendol, who was dx with OSA 1/30/13, amp on 2/6/13, and left us on 8/20/13.
You can read their stories at http://adelaide.tripawds.com and http://brendol.tripawds.com

What a wonderful job you did, Heather. You make us all proud. Can't wait to hear all about BlogPaws and how all our Tripawds representatives did.
Kathi and Murphy
Murphy is a five year old Lab/Chessie cross. He was hit by a car on 10/29/12 and became a Tripawd on 11/24/12. On 2/5/13, he had a total hip replacement on his remaining back leg. He has absolutely no idea that he has only three legs!
UPDATE: Murphy lived his life to the fullest, right up until an aggressive bone lesion took him across the Rainbow Bridge on April 9, 2015 and he gained his membership in the April Angels. Run free, my love. You deserve it!
OH! Oh! OH! Wow Heather, I just broke into hoppy tears when I opened that PDF, what an honor, THANK YOU for this beautiful tribute to our 3-legged heroes!
What a pawesome example of the love that is shared within this community. Wow. I'm speechless.
