Hi everyone, it's been a really sad few weeks in the Tripawd community. I hope these photos and video to follow will offer a bit of cheer.

Dotty moves ahead with her rehab, we are not having too many sore backs anymore and she may even learn to love the pool (I may be being too hopeful here).

Woofs and wags from 

Victoria and Dotty

This is the link to the video above that came out all squashed. I probably need to put it on Youtube or something. That may be a job for next week!

Splish! Splash! PAWESOME!

Look at you go Dotty! I can't believe this is Cabbage Poultice Dotty! Wow you have come so far, what an amazing awesome little pup you are. Thanks for sharing this fun milestone with us!

Ok let me see if the video works this way (I'm just pasting the "direct" link that's given on your Photobucket page).

Dang. Nope that didn't work. How about this (now I'm using the filmstrip icon in the post editing toolbar)

Uh oh, time to call in the geek squad. Best advice I have is to yes, open a YouTube account. It seems like a hassle but it's worth it since Photobucket will restrict how many photos and videos you can share, while YT doesn't.

Computer Geek? Did I hear a call out for a computer geek? I'm on my way! Just jave to fnish developing a couple more computer programs for the CIA.....they have most of the programs working now where they can get into everyone's computer and phone, they just need help installing "big brother watching" in all the dog houses now.

Victoria, can you even believe she is doing this well with all her "issues" in the beginning? You stayed strong and so did she! What a tough little girlclap

She's soooooo cute! I love the one where she's swimming on her own with just a finger barely toucing her jcaket "just in case"!

She looks like a little sea otter without the clams on ner tummy. I guess she could roll over and put caabbage on ner tummy! No, not a good idea....she'd probaby freak out if she ever saw a piece of cabbage coming her way!

Thanks so much for the smiles today! Very much needed!

Lots of love to you two!

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!

In your heart, where I belong.

Nice going, Dotty! Hard to believe you're the same pup who had kind of a rough go of it for awhile. You showed 'em! Sorry if you aren't in love with swimming, but maybe you will develop an affection for it. I know; likely not. But nice going just the same!

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.
