Guess what day it is?????
Here is a little hint for you.......
Here is a BIG hint for you.......
That's right....Bud is 10 years handsome on October 1st. We are grateful for and cherish every day that we have been spent with him. He is the sweetest spirit that I have ever known. He is also almost 20 months post amp. This year he has begun to have some vision and remaining knee arthritis issues. He has slowed down a bit but he is still hopping right along!
We hope that you all celebrate this milestone with us. Many thanks to Tripawds for share this journey with us!
Much love to our February Furball Friends and all the Tripawd angels, who we know are making some noise up there for us!

Happy 10 year Birthday, Bud! You are handsome! You and my Libby are members of the gray muzzle club as she turned 10 this year too. Two paws up for many more to come!
Liberty (Libby) was diagnosed with OSA on 1-22-13. Right front amputation on 1-31-13. No IV Chemo. Metronomic Therapy started 2-19-13 along with supplements and some home cooking. Lungs clear until 1-06-14. She's still her happy, hoppy, bossy self. Living the dog life to the fullest and a proud Winter Warrior. :) RIP my Libby 4-21-03 to 3-19-14
Happy birthday, Bud! You are one handsome fella! Way to go on the 20 months, too.
Murphy
Murphy is a five year old Lab/Chessie cross. He was hit by a car on 10/29/12 and became a Tripawd on 11/24/12. On 2/5/13, he had a total hip replacement on his remaining back leg. He has absolutely no idea that he has only three legs!
UPDATE: Murphy lived his life to the fullest, right up until an aggressive bone lesion took him across the Rainbow Bridge on April 9, 2015 and he gained his membership in the April Angels. Run free, my love. You deserve it!
Happy Birthday Bud. Hope its many more to come. Big celebration
hugs

Thanks Rene and thanks for cleaning up my mess on here...YOU are the bestest!
I hope Wyatt had a good visit at CSU or were you just hanging out there cause you heard there might be some 3legged dogs in the place?
Anyway, I hope he got to relinquish the cone and he is healing nicely.....I'll keep an eye out for a blog post
You're so welcome! We did have a good visit, stitches our out but he still has to wear the cone for a few days.
And I hope you're having a GREAT pawty with the pack! I'm just so thrilled that you guys are celebrating this big occasion and that we are a part of it. Thanks!

She has 4 sisters, Aissa (a senior border collie/chow), Maggie May (a puppy Great Pyrenees), Mathilde and Morrigan and 1 baby brother, Bagheera. We are all watched over by our angel Brendol, who was dx with OSA 1/30/13, amp on 2/6/13, and left us on 8/20/13.

Joan and Lily
Our beautiful Lily was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in her front leg on 12/14/11 at age 8 and had amp on 12/16/11. She completed 5 rounds of carbo. She was so brave and kicked cancer's butt daily! She lived life fully for 4 years, 3 months, and 15 days after her amp. My angel is a warrior princess. I miss her so much.
