Four weeks post-amp.

With Cemil in Napa:

Upside down dog, woke him up:

He now has his Dogleggs for Amputees.  Custom made for him, it protects his elbow pressure ulcer.  There's removable neoprene inside the elbox sleeve.  So now he can stop wearing the tshirt.  🙂

Here he is finally healed and "naked".  He looks so handsome at the end of the video, such a poser.

 Rottie Raven, osteosarcoma at 8-1/2 years old, amputation in October '09 and in February '10 due to liver mets he went back to heaven where he came from.  raven.tripawds.com

Now I have Miles, rottie mix amputee from a shelter and traveled 1500 miles to find his way here through the Rescue Railroad thanks to tripawds.com.  miles.tripawds.com

Loved the sleeping upside down dog video... Didn't you just get an urge to grab his belly and rub?!!Laugh The pose at the end of the last video was great too! I also liked the picture of Raven in his Dogleggs top... perfect for his elbow for sure!!!

Your baby has such a sweet face... I'd be wanting to kiss it all the time!!Big Blink

Jake, 10yr old golden retriever (fractured his front right leg on 9/1, bone biopsy revealed osteosarcoma on 9/10, amputation on 9/17) and his family Marguerite, Jacques and Wolfie, 5yr old german shepherd and the newest addition to the family, Nala, a 7mth old Bengal mix kittie.

I've rubbed his tummy many a time, he always sleeps this way!  Here he is a few weeks before his amputation.  I call it his Dead Spider Imitation.

I love the pictures, almost looks like Tasha. Her favorite way to lay is upside also, before her amputation she would try to lay upside down and she would cry, I felt so bad that she couldn't do it anymore. It was a happy day when she was finally able to again. I wonder if laying upside down is a rottwieler thing sf-laugh

Jo Ann & Tasha

Tasha 8 years old, First cancer diagnosis 6/26/09, Last cancer diagnosis 9/26/09, Amputation 10/01/09, Loving our girl moment by moment.

Tasha lost her battle and became my Angel on May 4 2011. Forever in my heart….
