Yay 11 months! You are such a great story teller. I loved the commentary- love the pics and video too.
🎉🎊🎉
Otis - 121 lbs pre amp - 114 lbs post amp and now 118 lb Great Dane - English Mastiff X. Started limping on 12/24/16. Diagnosed with Osteosarcoma 12/28/16 - amputation of front left leg on 1/6/17. Stitches out and 1st round of Chemo on 1/19/17. 2nd round of Carboplatin on 2/10/17 - 3rd round on 3/2/2017. 4th round was scheduled for 3/22/17 - however due to low WBC postponed - 4th Chemo completed on 3/28/17. Had breathing difficulties, stayed in Tufts ICU overnight. Due for 2 more rounds of Chemo but we are opting to go with homeopathy with Dr. Loops instead.
Love, love, love to see her play with Frankie!!!! She looks so wonderful and happy.
All that food! There is enough there to feed the pug(mutt)s for a week!
And I still think that Elly could use one of her booties as a sleeping bag 
Happy, happy, happy ampuversary Eurydice! Every month your mom throws you a great party that is just a bit better than last months party, I can't wait to see next month! I'm guessing a holiday will be declared.

Oh YEAH, another celebration like no other. 11 months already. I agree with Reilly, she's not going anywhere.
I'm so glad that Frankie got to join in. What a great side kick.
Are you now living in France? I could imagine the neighbours are wondering who is getting so excited about goat's ears. Well, Eurydice will be making more friends soon no doubt.
Thank you for sharing your celebrations and your selfies, you are both very beautiful.
Love from Auntie Kerren and the Cousin Cats. We have missed you.
Hoppy 11 months Eurydice! I was glad to see your update here. It seems like it's been a while and I was missing my dose of adorableness if you know what I mean? Laughing at you and Frankie together. Two such extremes! You sure do keep us happy with your updates Miss Cow and I can hardly wait to see what the celebrations going to be for your Hoppy one year which is coming very soon. Hugs to you the Ambassador of love!
Heeey Otis m'a man 🐈
SO pleased to hear you enjoyed my pawty 🎂👌🏽
I had such a good time, Mom was over the moon and kept saying this is such an achievement, to be able to get this far 🥁🥁🏆🏋🏼♀️
I really wished you could've been here to meet Frankie and get some birthday cake too 🍰
Sending you a trillion slobbery kisses from one slobbery girl 🐄 to one slobbery (gorgeous) boy 🐈 and tons of hugs to your darling Mom 🌷😘😘😘

Hey auntie Karen and cute mini hounds 🌸🐶🐶
Thank you so much for your lovely words and ampuversary good wishes 💐
Oh boy, how I would have LOVED to add those gorgeous side kicks of yours to Frankie 💕💕
I bet they would have organised themselves as a mini team immediately 🎪🎭 and start clowning about instantly 🎭
So, so far my pawty would have 2 Danes and 3 side kicks yaaay 🤸🏽♀️
No idea what Mom will do for my 1 year ampuversary but I overheard her mentioning to Justine it will be dawg packed 🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐮 and some big piece of meat will be roasted for the occasion NHAAAM 🌪🍖
And then the HUGE HUGE HUGE celebrations will be my 6th anniversary on June 1st 🍾🥂
Let's hope all of this will happen and we can both share our joy with our Tripawd family 🥁🎷🎺🎯
Sending lots of slobbery kisses to the puggies and lots of hugs from Mom too 🐶🐶🐮💕😘😘😘

Hey auntie Kerren 🌹Elly and Mona 🐱🐱
Let me just say my pawty would have been unforgettable if my adored kitties would have joined in😻😻
I was hoping Mona would show up again whilst you were sleeping 🚀😴 just like she did the other day but maybe you went to bed late 🛌 auntie Kerren, so Mona thought it was too tight to fly here and back ???
In any case, I did have you all in my mind and in my heart, that's for sure 💖
Mom and I have been extremely busy lately, we finally moved back to France YAAAAAY and couldn't be happier 😍😍😍
It's taken for ever to get everything in place and Mom is making a point of spending fun time with me every day so she hasn't posted or checked tripawds that much lately, which I know she feels a little guilty about ...
The craziest thing happened a couple of days ago, Mom and I went to the beach and met this totally gorgeous golden retriever puppy and then we realised his Dad had only one leg !
Mom said she thought I was a bit of a hero managing so well on 3 legs but HEY ... my chin dropped when I saw how gracefully this human balances on one leg 😎
Video to follow 🎥
Sending you and your kitties lots and lots of extra slobbery kisses and super hugs from Mom 😘😘😘💕🐱🐱💕🐮💕 and extra hugs and kisses for your lovely sister too 😍😍
