Thank you so much!!
We're appreciating God's favor today, and the support of our Tripawd friends. This has truly been a life-changing journey with "appreciating today" the byword. Who knows what tomorrow will bring; but today is good.
Another "good" is the friends we've made on this road. Thank you all for sharing the moments, good and bad. I know that part can be counted upon to continue.
A toast to Tripawds and Tripawd Pawrents!

Mary and Cemil,
We want to extend to you a very sincere wish of a very Hoppy 11 month Ampuversary. We have been looking all day for this posting but started to celebrate with Cherry early this morning. Of course for Cherry the celebration starts with a ride in the truck, extra hugs, special treats, and it will end with Pumpkin Pie and Ice Cream. You should not have to strain very hard to hear our cheering for your reaching such a great milestone. Please never allow reaching these milestone become mundane for they are always a reason to give thanks!
I look forward to the day when we can meet.
Bob & Cherry
Congrats Cemil! I'll tell you Happy 11 & 1/2 Ampuversary in about 3 weeks.

Happy Ampuversary, Cemil! You are a large and victorious dog today, and I hope you keep up your hard cancer-fighting skillz for many more happy days to come. WOOOOHOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Chuck!!!!! You are one awesome big guy. I read this outloud and there was a cheer over here in the Caira Sue household. Caira is celebrating by chewing on a bone. The rest of us have big smiles on our faces. What a great thing to read today!

Thank you for sharing this important reminder with all your fans Cemil. You are living proof of something very special Jerry taught us – that every day is a good day, when living (and loving) life on three legs.
Here's to many more hoppy ampuversaries!

We get to celebrate with bones? Pawesome! I just gotta convince my foster mom that my stomach is all better and ready for it... hmmmm... well, if I can't, just know that the next rawhide I chew will be in your honor.
