Jake, 10yr old golden retriever (fractured his front right leg on 9/1, bone biopsy revealed osteosarcoma on 9/10, amputation on 9/17) and his family Marguerite, Jacques and Wolfie, 5yr old german shepherd and the newest addition to the family, Nala, a 7mth old Bengal mix kittie. Jake lost his battle on 11/9/2009, almost 8 weeks after his surgery. We will never forget our sweet golden angel… http://jakesjou.....ipawds.com ….. CANCER SUCKS!

Thank you Comet's Mom for posting this video for me!  I have this on my blog but was having trouble posting this here...I am just so so proud of Mackenzie who swam for the first time as a tripawd this past weekend.  She was such a natural in the water....it was just like the way she used to swim and dive when she had 4 legs.   You'll see Kobe on the sidelines because he's afraid of the water - a golden retriever - go figure!

 

Again, thank you everyone for all of your wonderful support and comments!

Kami (Mackenzie's Mom)  

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!

Way to go, Mackenzie!  You are totally an inspiration to all of us!  What a totally awesome swimmer you are - with and without your floatie!  Amazing!!!

Hugs,

Holly and Holly's mom

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!
