Please give her some extra hugs from me and kisses from Abby,
Jackie, Abby's mom
Abby: Aug 1, 2009 – Jan 10, 2012. Our beautiful rescue pup lived LARGE with osteosarcoma for 15 months – half her way-too-short life. I think our "halflistic" approach (mixing traditional meds + supplements) helped her thrive. (PM me for details. I'm happy to help.) She had lung mets for over a year. They took her from us in the end, but they cannot take her spirit! She will live forever in our hearts. She loved the beach and giving kisses and going to In-N-Out for a Flying Dutchman. Tripawds blog, and a more detailed blog here. Please also check out my novel, What the Dog Ate. Now also in paperback! Purchase it at Amazon via Tripawds and help support Tripawds!
Happy Ampuversary Maggie!!! 2 years is so awesome, congrats to you.

Hoppy Ampuversary, Maggie! As my students would say, "you're a beast!"- and that's meant as a compliment! I will definitely give Finchy some extra treats tonight in your honor.

Comet - 1999 to 2011
She departed us unexpectedly January 23, 2011 at the age of 12 1/2.
She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.
So awesome Maggie Moo!! You are our hero and we are so happy that you're doing so well!! Way to go - 2 years!!! Wow!! You really make us proud!! 
Sending lots of golden hugs your way,
Kami, Angel Mackenzie, Kobe & Scarlett
My sweet golden Mackenzie. She became my angel on Dec 29, 2010 at the age of 8 1/2 although she was always my angel from the time we brought her home. She was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in Sept 2009 and officially became a tripawd (front leg) on Nov 5, 2009. She will be forever in my heart and now she's running free with all of our other tripawd heroes. I love you Mackenzie!
Thank you all for your comments!!! Maggie had a GREAT celebration last night...by first, destuffing a toy!!! Yeah! Then, she got a bison scapula chew...YUM she said!!!!!!!!!! Didn't take her long to demolish either the toy or the chew 
I guess she knew we were celebrating something special!!
