Kacee, we are so very sorry to hear of your great loss. We loved Riley here as though we knew her, she became a great ally to Sooper Cooper and brought smiles to our faces many times. I truly feel your pain and understand  it, I can only tell you that while it still hurts deeply , even after only a week and a half , we are already talking about Cooper with I think more smiles and less tears.  We ARE here for you, know this and my prayers for peace for you and Kurt are truly going up on your behalf. Run free Beautiful Riley!

KaCee ~ I'm so terribly sorry to hear about Riley ~ it's so painful I know! You replied to my post after losing my Augie and your words  were comforting, I only hope my words and understanding can comfort you in your time of need. I haven't posted or replied to a post for awhile as i've been mourning the loss of my Augie but I log onto Tripawds almost everyday and when I  logged on tonight and saw your post my heart sank and went out to you because i know the pain you are feeling. You are in my thoughts and as you said to me in my time of need....Riley's spirit is with you! RIP Riley xo

I am so so sorry. Oh, what heartbreak. 

As do so so many others, I know the crippling weight of your sorrow. She was a beautiful girl.

Sending you and your family strength and comfort and whatever else you need to get you through the coming days.

Run free, Riley.

I'm so so sorry to hear this news....it's always so difficult when we've lost another tripawd hero.  I only know too well the pain you must be feeling now.  It's devastating and it stays with you for a long time.  Your Riley - such a sweet girl.  I am so sad that you have to go through this  now too.   My heart goes out to you and I can only hope that you find comfort in knowing that she's with all of our other angel tripawd heroes who are protecting her and showing her the way.  She's probably smiling down at you and letting you know that she's ok.  In fact, I know she is!

You are in our thoughts and prayers. She's running free now and heaven was very lucky today. 

Sending you lots of golden hugs,

Kami, Angel Mackenzie, Kobe & 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!

I am so very sorry to hear about Riley. You were so kind to reply to my post introducing Triton two days ago. I will be sending photos to the forum soon, once I get it all figured out. Hope they will make you smile during your time of grieving. Only time takes care of that. In the meantime, Triton, Payton, Zephyr and I are sending healing thoughts to you. Heartbreaking.

Oh, I'm so,so sorry to hear about Riley.  You are in my thoughts and prayer as you grieve your loss.  It's so hard to let them go, but it is harder to watch them suffer.  I pray that thoughts of happy times with your beautiful girl help ease your pain.

Sadie is my 9yr old Rott/Shepherd mix. Diagnosed with osteosarcoma in her right scapula 1/28/10. Our brave girl had her amputation 2/13/10 and her last chemotherapy on 6/6/10. Unfortunately, a tumor appeared in her back right leg and on 10/7/2010 Sadie's earthly journey came to an end.  On 10/24/2010 we adopted Ranger, a handsome Rott/Lab mix tripawd (got hit by a car) I think Sadie sent him to us.
