This community lost one of our longest-lived and most beloved members last week. We are devastated.

Sparky the Dog has been with Tripawds since 2011. It's hard to believe so much time has passed. Through the years he has made us laugh and smile with his adorable tales of his neighborhood adventures. He lived to the ripe old age of 14, almost 15, and lived the kind of long, healthy, life on three legs that we all hope for our own animals.

I encourage everyone here to please stop by Sparky's blogand pay your condolences. Read his early adventures too, they're so sweet.

His momma is shattered, and she would love to know that you are thinking about her one-of-a-kind heart dog. There will never be another one like him. Run free Sparky, you will always be part of the heart and soul of the Tripawds Nation.
