Happy Birthday Dakota!! You look so handsome in your pictures! Zeus is a bit jealous that you get a Valentine's b-day. He (and Angel Merlin) have Halloween - they loved the fact that everyone dressed up and came to see them for their b-day, but never could understand why I gave all the treats to the visitors instead of them!
Hoping for many many more great birthdays for you!!
Zeus was a Husky mix diagnosed with Osteosarcoma at age 11. A visible lung met and suspicious spot on his liver meant a poor prognosis-six weeks was our vet's best guess. We decided to fight for our boy and his right front leg was amputated on 12/1/11. We did six rounds of chemo, changed his diet and spoiled him completely rotten. We were blessed with 10 great months after diagnosis. Against the odds, the lung met remained a single met and grew very little over those months. A wonderful furbaby with the most gentle spirit, he fought with a strength that we never imagined he possessed. We have no regrets...

She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.
Have a wonderful 10th birthday Dakota, because you and Sammy traveled such similar roads (pardon the pun) in life, we are hoping for a very bright future for you. It is a fabulous milestone! 🙂

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.
