WOOHOO! A pre-party for the real party but we're totally nixing the salmon ice cream. Ice cream, yes. Fishy ice cream, no.

Have a wonderful day, Holly! You rock.

YAY Holly. Woohoo congrats on 6 months!!!! superstar Here's to many many more. Kick that nasty cancers lame butt.

Make sure you get lots of yummy treats (hold out for REAL ice cream not that healthy salmony stuff) and lots and lots of tummy rubs. Tai will get an extra spoonful of tripe on your behalf big-grin

From a fellow December amp, Tai

Tai – 9 yr old lab. Diagnosed Osteosarcoma Dec 18/09. Front right leg amputated Dec 21/09. Started chemo Jan 7/10. Lung mets discovered Sept 16/10. Valiant to the end on Oct 26/10 when cancer reappeared in a leg and we made the decision to set her free. Forever in my heart where not even cancer can take her from me.

Congratulations on 6 months! That's a pawesome amount of time, and we're very happy for you.

Daisy, 12 years young, had left forelimb amp on 5/19/2010 due to osteosarcoma. She left her body behind and joined the other spirit tripawds on 7/16/2010.
So grateful for each day with her!

Hoppy 6 month ampuversary, Jolly Holly!!

Mommy came home for lunch and it was decided that we should just have ice cream to celebrate your day.

I hope she forgets to go to the store and buy some "real" food tonight so we can just have ice cream for dinner too!!  I'll tell her that we need to celebrate to the fullest, in your honor.

Holly,

Comet said you need to see this!  She said she warned you about Zuzu turning you into Gumby!  And now she has proof it happens!

 

Her Retired AvatarComet - 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.

Hey everypawdy!  Thanks for all the well wishes!  I had an awesome ampuversary, and was so happy to have all my friends eating ice cream and tripe and green beans along with me!  I wouldn't eat Trouble beans at first... until my mom cooked them with my salmon.  Then they were really, really yummy!  

Thanks again!

PS - Comet - I know you have my back.  I'm going to watch you know who that rhymes with zu to be sure she can't turn me into that gumby thing... that would be awful!  I'll bark two longs and two shorts if I need your help!  cool  <-- that's me in disguise

Holly joined the world of tripawds on 12/29/2009. She has a big little sister, Zuzu, who idolizes Holly and tries to make all of her toys into tripawds in Holly's honor. And she's enjoying life one hop at a time!
