I just wanted to make a quick shout-out to Ge'Lena, and say Happy Birthday, and thanks for everything you do for all of us! You keep us laughing when times are tough, you send us hugs when we need them the most, you bolster us when we need strength. Tripawds wouldn't be what it is without you!
Hugs!!!!
Rio's momma, Micki

I want to second all of what Micki said! The humor, love and warmth you bring to this community are invaluable!
Hope you are having a wonderful birthday and that the Monkeybutt is behaving!

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!
Ah hah! You beat us to it! Well hey G, we can't shout out loud enough to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY and thank you for all you do for Tripawds. How very fortunate we are to have you here, bringing your laughter, your smiles and your enthusiasm to folks when they need it most. Woot! Woot!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY PARTY GIRL! You're the bestest!
Now remember, no need to try to fight that pesky old age, you already look so fantastic! Look at that, no wrinkles!

Scout: January 31, 2002 to November 7, 2011
Scout's diagnosis was "poorly differentiated sarcoma"; amputation 1/11/2011. Scout enjoyed 9 fantastic years on 4 legs and 9 glorious months on 3 legs. If love alone could have saved you…

Zeus
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...
