Hi everyone,
Greetings from PEI. Just a couple of pics of Serge at his 4 month ampuversary.. He is growing like a weed still, and his "remaining" hind leg is now a lot straighter when he is moving around. He can now hop up on to the sofas without any help.. (Not sure that is necessarily a "good" thing !). When he runs around with Raven, or chasing a ball, he is now on his foot more than his hock, until he has to stop !!! Then he uses his hock as a brake !!
We'll probably start exercising in the early Fall, when the mosquitoes have gone. They have been terrible this year. He is getting along really well, completely into the "butt-head" adolescent stage, but Raven has learnt how to put an annoying young tripawd down with no problem, when he gets too much into her face.
Have a good week everyone,
Regards from Atlantic Canada !!

They are both very beautiful GSD's.......hope Serge continues to do great as a Tripawd.
Best wishes,
Bonnie & Angel Polly
Serge is mighty handsome and I'm glad he's doing so well!!!
Congrats on the 4 month Ampuversary and wishing Serge many, many more!!
Serge definitely deserves to celebrate with some of his favorite treats.

Hoppy Ampuversary Serge! You are almost all growed up. Dang you sure are handsome!
P.S. Tell your people that being able to get up on the couch is indeed a very good thing
