I am so sorry for your loss.

"May I recommend serenity to you? A life that is burdened with expectations is a heavy life. Its fruit is sorrow and disappointment. Learn to be one with the joy of the moment."

I'm so sorry for your loss.
Liberty (Libby) was diagnosed with OSA on 1-22-13. Right front amputation on 1-31-13. No IV Chemo. Metronomic Therapy started 2-19-13 along with supplements and some home cooking. Lungs clear until 1-06-14. She's still her happy, hoppy, bossy self. Living the dog life to the fullest and a proud Winter Warrior. :) RIP my Libby 4-21-03 to 3-19-14

Christine..... with Franklin in her heart♥
Franklin, he was the Happiest Dog on Three Legs! Diagnosed 09/26/2012 with Osteosarcoma, amputated 12/4/2012. Had a wonderful 5 1/2 months painfree until he ran for the Bridge on 5/15/2013. Always in my heart, and always a guardian angel of my pack... You can follow his Tripawd Adventures, before and after, in my blog, Frank'n'Farter!

Mum wants to send you photos...She thought it would be as simple as copy and paste!
It Is!
Here are detailed instructions for adding photos to forum posts.
In short, view your photo online and right click on it to get the image file location. Copy that and paste it into the Image URL field when using the Insert/Edit Image button in your post editor (on a computer). When using a tablet or phone, just paste that on a line by itself since you will not be provided the Rich Text editor on mobile devices.
If you do not share photos online, you can start a free blog to share them there. Hope this helps!

First I will say I'm sorry for the dogs you have lost, but it's WONDERFUL that you've got a new dog in your family! Even if you grieve the ones you've lost sooo much, a puppy brings so much light in your life! We have had little Belllis now for almost 4 months (she is almost 6 months now) and it's such a joy both for us and for my labrador Wilbur. Wish you all the best and take care!
