We are starting a new "Tripawd Angels" photo gallery to celebrate the lives of all of our heroes who've earned their wings.
If you would like your Tripawd cat or dog's photo included, please embed or link to your one favorite photo in this topic and we will add it in the gallery. I know it's hard to pick just one, but due to server space we can only include one for each member.
Tripawd heroes will always be remembered, never forgotten.

very knd very kind...
Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
This was not very easy to pick from all the ones I have. So I tried to find one that I love (although I love them all) but I wanted her actual picture and not her portrait.

Couldn't look at her pictures long without bawling so this will have to do. Thank you...
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

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

ooooooooooooooooh Jerry..................could I possibly impose on you to float a Roxie over here? She wouldn't care which, since she was the Perfect Princess in every one. Her most humble and loyal servant would be ever grateful.

So very hard to choose. My sweetpea... she was either laying on the couch/bed giving me those sad puppy dog eyes because she always wanted me next to her or she was soooo very happy. I am definitely biased, but I think she had the happiest look of any dog. Miss her so much.
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
I think this is my favorite picture of "tripawd" Shooter as he is sporting his scarf. So hard to believe it has been almost 8 months since I last heard him talking to me.
Spirit Shooter was a Miniature Australian Shepherd who was diagnosed with a MCT and had a LF amp 1/28/13 at 13-1/2 years old.
Shooter crossed the Bridge on 8/28/13, his 7 month ampuversary and two weeks from his 14th birthday.
Dakota's rare and precious eye contact. We got it so infrequently that we really appreciated it.
From abandoned puppy to Tripawd Warrior Dude, Dakota became one of the 2011 February Furballs due to STS. Our incredibly sweet friend lived with grace and dignity till he impulsively raced over the Bridge on 12-15-12.
Dakota's thoughtful and erudite blog is at http://shari.tr.....pawds.com/
Sally wanted to add a photo of Hannah and made us pick one, which was hard. This one was chosen.
The Tripawd Angels Photo Gallery is now on our Gallery Page. Scoll down, it's in the middle area.

7/27/2003 ~ 7/24/2013
Our Super Dog Hunter crossed over the Rainbow Bridge on a beautiful summer day in July, just 3 days shy of his 10th Birthday. He gave us everything since he was 8 weeks old. Hunter was a 14 month warrior of OS. We LOVE and MISS him every day.
