Trouble made her debut on the local TV station's morning news program along with her vet who did a segment on osteosarcoma, treatment, and amputation.  She was his ambassador dog to show how well they adapt. 

I was so shocked and pleased when Dr F gave a plug for Tripawds.com as a source of information.  He's awesome!  Trouble was blessed the night we walked into that clinic for a second opinion 🙂

I have a couple of folks who recorded it for me, if I can get it transferred into something I can post, I'll share.

Have I told you all lately how happy I am to have her in my life?

Shanna & Spirit Trouble ~ Trouble gained her wings 3/16/2011, a 27 1/2 month cancer survivor, tail wagging. RIP sweetheart, you are my heart and soul.  Run free at Rainbow Bridge.

How exciting.  Wish I could get her paw print!

Oh That's SO AWESOME--

Trouble is not only a good advocate for the Tripawds but for the pit bull breed in general.  Properly cared for and raised, they are just simply awesome dogs.

My neighbor has a pit bull and it is so nice.  (their yorkie on the other hand is a little <<<<enter word here) 

Yeah for Trouble!!!

The website is KFDM.com, but you won't find a clip there, it is a live segment.  A friend of mine will have a digital copy of it for me at work today.  I'll try to get it posted this evening.

Oh my gosh, too cute!  You must be such a proud mom 🙂  I love how when her back gets scratched you can see her kicking her back leg 🙂  I couldn't get the second video to load for some reason (i think it's our internet), but the first was so much fun to watch!  thanks for sharing 🙂
