ADORABLE PUP INDEED!!! That look of Chancey Pants is clearly his "signature look". Yep, goofy, sweet, innocent and HAPPY!! 🙂 Just like Chance's avatar, you can't help but smile when you see these treasured memories.
Love to you
Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle and Frankie too!
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!
I love it! What a great photo of Chance!
David and Rocky (and Baxter now too!)
Rocky had his right front leg amputated on Valentine's Day 2017 after being diagnosed with osteosarcoma.
He joined the September Saints on September 3, 2017.
He is the toughest, bravest, sweetest and best friend I'll ever know.
Chuy joined the ranks of the Angels today.
Chuy, showing everyone that Tripawds do everything 3 times better than regular dogs!
Ohhhh Eleanor. We are so sad to hear he got his wings. He fought so hard and was such a trooper throughout his life. You gave him the BEST love and adventures and good times any dog could ask for. We will miss him tremendously.
Everypawdy if you don't know about Chuy, he is a legend around here. You must read about him on his blog and in the links below. He was literally the first Tripawd to show us that even with existing issues in remaining limbs, an animal can still have a great quality of life on three legs. AND that even a Tripawd can recover from an orthopedic surgery on another leg. See:

May Chuy show all the dogs at the Bridge how to have a proper mud bath. We love you Chuy.

Beautiful pictures of the amazing Chuy! He, and his hoomans, really paved the way to show us all the miracles tripawds can achieve. Of course, the power of love, dedication and devotion also helped to mold Chuy into the miracle dog he "is" and will always be!
It's such a privilege to read through all of Chuy's "journals" chronicling time here. Absolutely love this dog!
Love and hugs
Sally and My Chunky Spiritual Being Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle and Frankie too!

Our beautiful Hiroaki was only a Tripawd for 5 days before he gained his wings, ultimately due to heart failure believed to be brought on by stress. I will forever love my baby and be thankful that I was introduced to an amazing community like this.
And we are so honored to be included in Hiroaki's family❤ We were touched by this special Soul with his first post.
This picture is lovely. So serene and clearly so content.
Thank you for sharing this sweet photo😚

Ohhh what a beautiful kitty, so soft and at ease. He was so loved by his people.
I am so glad you decided to share his photo with us, thank you for allowing us to be part of his story. He left this earth far too soon, our hearts grieve with you.

My baby boy Bender wanted to play every second of every day. If I wanted to relax on the couch, Bender would try to entice me with every toy in his arsenal. I always gave in and played with him regardless of how tired I was.
I miss his handsome face and persistent bulldog attitude. I find peace in the fact that he can play to his hearts content with the angels above.
Miss you big fella.
Yesterday I said goodbye to my beautiful Madeline. RIP my darling, I will always love you.

It's so hard to pick just one. This doesn't showcase his beauty, but this is Quincy totally in his element:
Some of the things he loved were snow, sticks, and being outside with us. We were so amazed at how well he could get through the snow on three legs.

My Beautiful Beloved Brownie was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma on February 26, 2019. With all odds against him he lived an additional one year and eight days with amputation, love, and prayer. I was honored to be his mom, and I have never been so proud! He will live forever in my Heart!

brownie1201, I think that link is broken. I don't see a picture and would love to.
