Today is Jilly's THREE YEAR ampuversary!!!!!  Please join me in celebrating her big day!  We had a great visit at the oncologist on Tuesday - her x rays are clear, blood work is purrfect.  I just couldn't be more pleased.  You are all my family so I hope you do some celebrating today with your own furbabies today!

xoxo always,

Erica, Jill (and Jack!)

Wow! Congratulations, Jill! I remember when we were sending postcards for her six month celebration.

Kathi and the Turbotail April Angel...and the Labradork

Murphy is a five year old Lab/Chessie cross. He was hit by a car on 10/29/12 and became a Tripawd on 11/24/12. On 2/5/13, he had a total hip replacement on his remaining back leg. He has absolutely no idea that he has only three legs!

UPDATE: Murphy lived his life to the fullest, right up until an aggressive bone lesion took him across the Rainbow Bridge on April 9, 2015 and he gained his membership in the April Angels. Run free, my love. You deserve it!

Our story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife
