Thought that I'd drop an update about my buddy Dusty. He has just celebrated his one year anniversary since his surgery. All in all, he's done remarkably well and his quality of life seems to be outstanding. He plays and loves just as much as pre-op and we've been blessed with one more year of having him. He is now a 12-year old Cockerpoo, missing his rear right leg. Had a some back problems in September that had him down - fortunately more xrays show that he was tumor free and 10-days on a steroid made him good as new. So glad to have this community when I needed it most!
Merry Christmas to all!
Here's a link to some pics I took today!

Our beautiful Lily was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in her front leg on 12/14/11 at age 8 and had amp on 12/16/11. She completed 5 rounds of carbo. She was so brave and kicked cancer's butt daily! She lived life fully for 4 years, 3 months, and 15 days after her amp. My angel is a warrior princess. I miss her so much.
Happy one year Dusty! So amazing to be counting ampuversaries in years.
Happy Christmas to you and your pack.

Happy, happy one year little Dusty !! From one Marylander to another, nothing brings more joy to me than seeing another brave Tripawd doing so well, and enjoying life to the fullest !!
Merry Christmas to you and Dusty, and may he and you have many more happy, healthy days ahead !

Super Duper Wonderful news! Hoppy ampuversary Dusty! It's always so nice to know that a Tripawd, especially a "mature" Tri, is doing so well. May there be many, many more ampuversaries!
