Mackenzie - Nov 5, 2009
My sweet golden Mackenzie. She became my angel on Dec 29, 2010 at the age of 8 1/2 although she was always my angel from the time we brought her home. She was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in Sept 2009 and officially became a tripawd (front leg) on Nov 5, 2009. She will be forever in my heart and now she's running free with all of our other tripawd heroes. I love you Mackenzie!
Magic...March 11, 2010 (today is ONE MONTH.......where did THAT month go!!)

Gus- April, 7, 2010
My buddy Gus had a left front amputation on April 7, 2010 and lived a great life until July 26,2010
Sadie - Feb 14, 2010
Sadie is my 9yr old Rott/Shepherd mix. Diagnosed with osteosarcoma in her right scapula 1/28/10. Our brave girl had her amputation 2/13/10 and her last chemotherapy on 6/6/10. Unfortunately, a tumor appeared in her back right leg and on 10/7/2010 Sadie's earthly journey came to an end. On 10/24/2010 we adopted Ranger, a handsome Rott/Lab mix tripawd (got hit by a car) I think Sadie sent him to us.

Zorion - May 6, 2010 and doing fantastically 1 week post-amp!!!
Zorion – my 3-legged Kelpie. Joined the world of Tripawds on May 6th after a bad dislocation and failed FHO. Loving life as a Tripawd. Still capable of working sheep (and horses unfortunately) and loving having a sister now.
Jenny – my 4-legged Labrador. Obedience titled and loving being part of my family again, and enjoying teaching Zorion some manners.
Brandy made 2 weeks post amputation on June 1, 2010, woohoo. I am so proud of her and all of the other Tripawds out there!
Catie - January 13, 2010. Wow. Coming up 5 months! Woohoo.

Crossed the Bridge – June 2 2011
Dante: February 18th, 2010 - we think. He got his staples out on March 4th, so the 18th would make it two weeks. Somewhere around there, anyways! We're coming up on 4 months - yipee!

Rusty is a Labradoodle who was diagnosed with level 3 Fibrosarcoma on January 16th, 2010 and had his left hind leg amputated on January 25th, 2010 five days before his 18 month birthday. Please see Rusty's blog @rusty.tripawds.com. He is putting up one heck of a fight against this terrible disease.
