Comet - 1999 to 2011
She departed us unexpectedly January 23, 2011 at the age of 12 1/2.
She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.
Awwwwwww!
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. Tripawds blog, and a more detailed blog here. Please also check out my novel, What the Dog Ate. Now also in paperback! Purchase it at Amazon via Tripawds and help support Tripawds!

That's our little Harper. My friends, Beverly McCartt and Tom Nowicki of Hip Dog, are helping with her hydrotherapy at Hip Dog. Pro bono....I'm really proud to know these folks. They are amazing, are good and wonderful people and friends, and I have seen my share of miracles under my own roof thanks to their compassion and care.
GO HARPER!!
What a sweet little one. A little bit of love can go a long way!
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.
The November Five - Spirits Max, Cherry, Tika, Trouble & Nova. 11/2008 - 3/2013 An era ends as Queen Nova crossed the Bridge.
Just called Bev and asked when Harper was going to be at Hip Dog again......stay tuned! I'll take photos (and then beg one of you computer gurus to post it.....)
Does anyone know what happened to the man who threw her away? Was he charged with animal abuse?
yay for the rescuers and the best of Yay's for sweet Harper, my heart fills with love that she has been saved and is so happy!

I couldn't begin to say how special Sammy is to us. Living and laughing with and loving this wonderful boy is priceless.
What a story and what a face on that girl! Thanks for sharing this article...its just amazing that the one person out of 1,000 who would be best able to help was the person who was there at precisely the right time. A miracle!
Great story! Harper is a miracle girl! Thank you for sharing!
