Eurydicheese is too full. My gosh, she has to lie on her back to digest all that chicken and cheese. Maybe she ate a penguin?

What a great day! A stick, a new beagle friend, papa and mama singing, being hand fed and a mate for Pedro. Three penguin stuffies! And I know you love each and every one.

As always I look forward to your adventures and meeting old and new friends.

Lots of hugs, cuddles, and kitty cat rubs.

OMDog!ย  Astro says he would like to come live with you now, since, compared to Eurydice, he is obviously not being feted up to his full potential! Happy Happy Ampuversary!!ย  Astro would also like to point out that he likes a lot of the same things you do! Namely, slobbering on new toys, playing tug, gourmet cooking and sprawling belly-up. He admits to not being as well-traveled as you guys, but he is willing to learn!ย ย  It's so GOOD to see you so happy and doing so well, Eurydice! and that little Bella is adorable! What great friends you have!

Here's to Many, Many More!!!

Cheers,

Kat and Astro

Got to see more videos! EACH ONE IS ALWAYS MY FAVORITE!!!

Eurydice playing with her Jumbone....watching her soooo happy...sooo gleefull...priceless!! And her squeaky Penguin held so proudly in her massive slobbering jaws...yeah, add that to the priceless list too!! ๐Ÿ™‚ ๐Ÿ™‚

And the sweeeet video where he handfeeds her each savory nugget...ADORABLE! 'She takes each one so gently. I love it when he says..."Give it all to her?", or something along those lines! "Are you sure?"

So much fun pawtying with you!!! ๐Ÿ™‚ ๐Ÿ™‚ ๐Ÿ™‚

Lots of love

Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle and Frankie too!

Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!

Ourย story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife

Hi Kellye, Rosie and Branden ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿถ๐ŸŒธ

SO glad you enjoyed my ampuversary too ๐ŸŽ‚

Mom has this Carpe Diem filosophy and can hide her concerns from me quite well โœŠ๐Ÿป (or so I let her think), she will always go the extra mile to surprise me ... and I have to say my ampuversary menu was quite a marvellous surprise ๐Ÿ˜‹

Mom would SO enjoy to help you organising Rosie's next ampuversary, if we lived closer she'd do it for sure๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฐ๐ŸŽŠ

We'll be traveling together soon ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿป๐Ÿฎย 

Lots of love from Mom and cuddles to the furry cuties ๐Ÿ˜˜๐Ÿ˜˜๐Ÿพ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿ’•
