Hi Pals!  Firstly - thank you Jerry G Dawg for changing the size of my pic so that I can upload my avatar.  Mommy struggled for weeks to do that...:))

Oh I had such a wonderful time on the beach. Mommy was very emotional - it brought back memories of when I still had my 4 legs.  Grandpa would take us (me, Abby and Diana) to the beach and we would run untill we were only small little spots on the beach.  Grandpa would whistle only once and we would run back.  Me in front (I am the pack leader) and Abby and Diana following me - they could never outrun me, I was waaaayyyyy to fast for them!

Saturday I had to go alone, because I will not be able to keep up with Abby and Diana, but I still had a pretty good time.  I fell out of the car when mommy opened the door - I was a bit too excited and my healthy front leg couldnt take the impact when I landed - I had such a fright that I jumped back in the car.  But you know what - It wasnt that bad, because by the time I got onto the soft beach sand, I was hopping and running and smelling everything and just having a fun time!

 Pitty you guys couldnt join me - I think we would have had wonderful time!

(Mommy passed her exams with flying colours - she only has one year left before she graduates and is very excited about it!) Thanks for asking Zeus!

Will catch up with you again soon!

Lotsa licks and lotsa love, Dee xxx

Hi Pals! Mommy is still trying to sort out my video of me hopping on the beach, but promised to do it this weekend... So, keep ya paws crossed for her to figure out how to do it!  Everytime mommy looks at the video, she realises that having this operation was the best thing she could do for me. 

Mommy is not very happy about my weight - grandma is feeding me too much food and I am getting FAT... I dont mind eating so much - I loooovveeeee  my new diet - but I know that the excess weight will put more strain on my healthy legs!  I hope grandma listens to mommy!

I am hoping for some sun again this weekend because mommy promised to take me to the beach again.  This time we are not staying that long - I was really very very tired after my previous beach adventure! (And this time mommy will make sure that I dont fall out of the car again!)

Lotsa licks and lotsa love, Dee xxx

Thanks for putting my picture up Jerry! (Thanks for the compliment)  The only thing wrong with that picture is not having my tripawd pals in it!  South Africa has beautiful beaches to play on!  I think we would have had such a fun time!  Zeus - I will follow your suggestion of taking short frequent walks to build my strength and keep the weight down... 

I had a very relaxing weekend.  Rolling and laying on the grass while the sun was shining and sleeping on my grandparents' bed when it was raining outside... Oh how I wish it was summer again!!

Hope you had a wonderful and relaxing weekend and that you are all still doing well!

Lotsa licks and lotsa love, Dee xxx

Hi Jerr, mommy's been busy with studies and that is why she hasnt had much time to check on your website for news... But just to let you know, I am doing great and still hanging in there - no still LIVING LIFE TO THE FULLEST 3 months post amputation! 🙂  Yes, South Africa is beautiful, from  beautiful beaches with dolphins & whales to beautiful sunsets with elephants, giraffes and Lions! I live in Cape Town with Table Mountain as one of the prettiest and most visited tourist attractions in the WORLD! :))  Thanks for thinking of me - we all feel really honoured and proud to have friends from all over the world thinking of and writing to each other...

Mommy said we are going to the beach again real soon - September is Spring in South Africa - I am looking forward to seeing a bit more sun and a bit more of the beach!

Lotsa love and lotsa licks, Dee xxx
