The GSD is Shyla, we have 2 GSDs from the Burbank rescue (they are both 5-6). They all get along great, although Shyla in particular has been awesome. Chance loves being with the girls. So yes, we are crazy people with 3 dogs.
Crazy people with dogs are the BEST!!! You've built a wonderful family and made a huge difference in those lives, as I'm sure they have in yours. He's just precious. Thanks for the great update!!!
-Liz and Roxie
What a sweetie pie!!!! Good to see that he has taken to 3 legs with nothing to stop him from being a puppy!!! I look forward to many more pictures!!
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!
Oooh crazy dog people are awesome!
We will have to meet up this year. Our Tripawds Spokespup GSD Wyatt Ray would love to meet your girls and Chance of course. Watch the Forums for a Tripawds Southern CA get-together sometime around the end of the year when we are visiting family in the area.
