Sassy is looking great. The snow looks so beautiful but oh so cold. Good thing the doggies are all bundled up. They both look so comfie in their winter jackets. Sorry Sassy was a bit sick from the chemo. Sounds like the medicine worked and she is back on track with the eating. Enjoy your weekend.
“Dogs are our link to paradise. They don't know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring--it was peace.” ― Milan Kundera

Hey that sounds pretty good! Congrats on successfully knocking down another chemo. Take THAT cancer!

Sassy's pen is a great idea for the multi-dog family. Thanks for sharing!
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.

Keep up the fight, Sassy! You look beautiful and very cozy in your jackets and pen. Way to go!
ACL tear in right hind leg 12/5/12 and scheduled ACL repair surgery 12/21/12. Pre-op xrays revealed osteosarcoma. Amputation 12/28/12. Chemo (carboplatin) started Jan 10, 2013 and ended on April 5, for a total of 5 doses. He handled carbo like a champ! No side effects. We started metronomic therapy at his third chemo and have been also doing some holistic treatments. He's a lively, playful 10 year old huskie-boarder collie and a very proud member of the Winter Warriors! Our love. Our funny little guy!
Good idea to section off a bit of the yard for her. That's a good idea for future mulit-dog families on the site.
Keep kicking cancer's butt, Sassy!

Abby: Aug 1, 2009 – Jan 10, 2012. Our beautiful rescue pup lived LARGE with osteosarcoma for 15 months – half her way-too-short life. I think our "halflistic" approach (mixing traditional meds + supplements) helped her thrive. (PM me for details. I'm happy to help.) She had lung mets for over a year. They took her from us in the end, but they cannot take her spirit! She will live forever in our hearts. She loved the beach and giving kisses and going to In-N-Out for a Flying Dutchman.
