I am so very sorry to hear of Sooper Cooper's passing. He was such a presence here on Tripawds and I know that all the other Tripawd warriors that have gone before him are there to greet him. Heaven needs an AMBF too! What a blessing that he went on his own terms... I know every one of us here hopes for such a peaceful transition for our Tripawds.
My thoughts and prayers will be with you as you grieve. Licks and leans to you from the Queen.

Oh admin,
I just saw Sooper Cooper's banner! Oh, how special!
P.S. Isabelle's video is so beautiful also!

She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.
Oh Sooper Dooper Cooper....we'll never forget that big smiling face and that big beautiful spirit. So so sorry Ken that you now have to face this loss. We all only know too well what a huge loss this is and our hearts break for you. I'm so glad that he made the decision for you to be released. What a blessing. Cooper is now in heaven and has earned his angel wings - how lucky heaven is today. We send you our thoughts and prayers. Please take great comfort in knowing that he's surrounded by all of his other angel tripawd heroes who will look out for him and make sure that he's ok.
Lots of golden hugs to you,
Kami, Angel Mackenzie, Kobe and puppy Scarlett
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!

Angel Cooper will always be here!
But we sure want YOU to be here! You've given so much and it would never be the same without you. But please know, if you need time, we understand.
Just remember our saying - "Once a Tripawd, Always a Tripawd"

Dear Sooper Dooper Fearless Leader Webtoed Clown Cooper,
As the Leader of The Monkeydog Federation, I want you to know that we really did love you and admire you. You were brave in battle and you were a warrior on all fronts. A fallen hero can never be replaced.
Thank you for being there for my mommy when my sister Angel Comet died. You made her laugh through her tears. You knew just how to make her smile with the perfect mix of fun and sincerity. You always made me not think about her also. For that I am grateful.
I want to personally thank you for making your last post to me, Monkeybutt-bunny Vampire Pirate. I am honored.
I will miss you my brave friend. Please give my sister Angel Comet a kiss from me and let her know how much I loved her and miss her. I know that doggie heaven is having the best party now that you, Sooper Cooper are there!
Yours truly,
Monkeybutt-bunny Vampire Pirate Vavra

"It came to me that every time I lose a dog they take a piece of my heart with them. And every new dog who comes into my life gifts me with a piece of their heart. If I live long enough, all the components of my heart will be dog, and I will become as generous and loving as they are."

A howl is heard across Oaktown......We are so sorry for your loss but know that Cooper will always be in your heart, and ours. A true Tripawd Warrior is gone indeed. Thank you so much for sharing Cooper with us--we will never forget him.
Cooper is already at peace and dancing over the Rainbow Bridge with Jerry G. and Caira Sue, Horatia and Trouble, Zeus and Yoda, so peace be in your hearts--may your tears soon turn to laughter, as you remember all the good times you had together and the love between you that will never die.

Oh, Cooper... Not you too! I'm so, so sorry, Ken and Faith. Cooper was our hero. He was our Fearless Leader. He was strong and beautiful, and he met life on his own terms. I have no words of comfort for you right now, and for this, I'm sorry. I know the heartbreak of losing such a friend, and only time will make a difference.
For those of us who only had the privilege of knowing Cooper through your words and pictures, we still feel strongly the pain of his loss. Our hearts are breaking tonight -- for you and your quiet, empty rooms, for this community, for the loss of yet another cancer warrior, and for us, for the loss of our dear friend Cooper. I wish now that we'd kept the turtle....
