Happy Thanksgiving! I am very thankful this year to have found this forum and met all of you awesome people. It is a bittersweet holiday for so many of us whose dogs have passed....but I think we're all thankful to have met our fluffs in the first place. Hmm....and after 6 hours of baking, I'm thankful to be done for the night :P.
Last year's Thanksgiving was a celebration of mixed emotions as I am sure it was for Nova, Trouble, Maximutt, and Tika. Cherry was only eight days post-surgury and her condition was not good and going downhill. For Cherry, this has been a year of improvement spotted with that roller-coaster ride we all know. She has never been better since the diagnosis than she was in October, and we had a wonderful three day celebration less than a week ago. As my Cherry put it in her posting "Many times during each of these three days we paused for a quiet moment to give thanks, to ask Him to watch over our friends who, like me, are still on this journey, and hold very tightly all our friends who have crossed over the Rainbow Bridge to wait the day of joyous reunion when they will never be parted again." We are Thankful for this wonderful community, but we are most Thankful because no matter how difficult the journey, our precious companions have blessed our lives in more ways than we could ever realize.
Wishing each and everyone a very Peaceful Thanksgiving.
Bob & Cherry
It was Thanksgiving Day, 2006, when we picked Jerry up from UC Davis with one less leg. Ever since then, he has taught us – in body and now in spirit – to give thanks every day for all the wonderful gifts life has to offer.
Thank you all for keeping that Tripawd Spirit alive.

Happy Ampuversary Cemile!!! What a wonderful, wonderful celebration 
Happy One-Day post thanksgiving to everyone too - I played crab and didn't have as much strength or thankfulness yesterday as I thought I would have. 
The grief just kind of took over and i forgot the lessons Zeus has taught me. Oh well - I guess I'll pick it back up today and start again 
Martha - the collage is beautiful - thank you for including my baby in there.
Hugs to everyone ~
Love
