Tasha says " I am so excited, I just can't hide it, I am celebrating my 11 month ampuversary and I like it."
We feel so blessed that we are posting Tasha's 11 month ampuversary. She continues to amaze us, she is so strong and loving her life. Tasha is so funny since her surgery and so vocal, she now is even starting to howl at me sometimes when see she sees me coming. When I got that diagnoses so many months ago I never thought life could ever be so wonderful again boy did Tasha show me how wrong I was.
Today Tasha celebrates her ampuversary with a hamburger, so much lovin and of course her ICE CREAM! 
Tasha 8 years old, First cancer diagnosis 6/26/09, Last cancer diagnosis 9/26/09, Amputation 10/01/09, Loving our girl moment by moment.
Tasha lost her battle and became my Angel on May 4 2011. Forever in my heart….

Grateful for every moment we had with Paris…..no regrets!
Honoring her life by opening our hearts & home to Addy!
WooHoo! Rooorooooroo! One more and you'll have one FULL year! It is amazing how their personalities change and they become so vocal. Trouble did the same thing. She was always so docile, but no longer. She's up and letting the world know she's around.
Tasha you keep the good work. We want to celebrate many, many more hoppy ampuversaries with you.
Trouble gets --- are you ready? --- GREEN BEANS! oK, maybe canteloup
Shanna & Spirit Trouble ~ Trouble gained her wings 3/16/2011, a 27 1/2 month cancer survivor, tail wagging. RIP sweetheart, you are my heart and soul. Run free at Rainbow Bridge.

Congratulations, Beautiful Girl! Way to go!

Debra & Emily, a five year old doberman mix, who was diagnosed with an osteosaecoma. She had a right rear leg amputation on May 19, 2009. On November 10, 2009 she earned her wings and regained her fourth leg.
Tasha,
There is no containing the excitement that will fill this house today - eleven month ampuversary - the PAWRTY is starting and everyone is joining in!!! There is nothing wrong about being more vocal and making sure the world know that life can be great for a TriPawd. I know that Dad makes sure to tell my story often so that people understand just how much life can be returned. Far too many people give up, but Tasha you are a prime example of just how fufilling life can be for you and your family. We celebrate your reaching this great milestone, but want to make sure that you now have just a month to makes those one year ampuversary PAWRTY plans. Such is the responsibility of being a "Poster Child".
Extra Hugs, Extra Playtime, Special Treats and ICE CREAM all around. (and yes Dad will be having Green Beans in spite of being between plantings for fresh. He will just have to get to the local Farmers Market and stock-up.) There will also be a special toast for this milestone, the comming one year ampuversary, and for many - many - many more ampuversaries comming.
Tipping our Hats to you - Keep on Rocking!!
Spirit Cherry
Whoo hoo!! 11 Months!! Big cause for celebration. 
We will definitely be celebrating in our house with hamburger and ice cream tonight! Here's to many many more ampuversaries and celebrations!! Way to go Tasha!!
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!
