Unabashed schmaltz in honour of Meg's 18 month Ampuversary...

She's doing well, every bit as much of a rogue and a rascal as ever she was, constantly in trouble, makes my life hell, ย and I love her with all my heart.

Ruby, Staffy, born June 2022, became a Tripawd, 23 November 2023, adopted 12 January 2024.

Also Angel Tripawd Meg (aka The Megastar), who died in April 2023, aged 14, after seven glorious years on three, and Angel Staffies Pie and Bille. In the pawprints of giants...

Ourย story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife

HAPPY 18th AMPUVERSARY MEG ๐ŸŽŠ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽŠ

Wonderful video, yes, the Oscar goes to Clare ๐Ÿ† and could not be more deserved ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ

You've got a great talent producing fantastic videos (I will be forever touched by Eurydice's lovely tribute ๐Ÿฎ๐ŸŒŸ) and, of course, having such a gorgeous - cheeky - model helps, right Meg? ๐Ÿ˜‰

I wish I could be there with you and the girls, help preparing a menu fit for a Meg-a-Star and her food-passionate friend Elsie too

๐Ÿ—๐Ÿ–๐Ÿ•๐ŸŒญ๐Ÿ” and also ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฆand ๐ŸŽ‚

Wish you girls a lovely, lovely day, lots of kisses and cuddles flying your way ๐Ÿ˜˜๐Ÿ˜˜๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿ’ซโœจ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒน

Eurydice 77kg/170lb Great Dane limping end of April 2016, amputation (right front leg/osteosarcoma) 4ย May 2016 6 courses of carboplatin followed by metronomic therapy, lung mets found 30ย Nov 2016. 3 courses of doxorubicin, PET scan 26 Jan 2017 showed more mets so stopped chemo. Holistic route April 2017. Lung X-ray 5 May 2017 showed several tennis ball size mets, started cortisone and diuretics. Miss Cow earned her XXL silver wings 12 June 2017, 13 months and 1 week after amputation and 6 1/2 months after lung mets, she was the goofiest dawg ever and is now happily flying from cloud to cloud woof woofing away :-)ย

Brilliant! Truly a MEG-A-STAR!

We are so privileged to have shared this time with you and always so grateful that there is an ocean protecting us from your antics big-grin

Clare- again you have shown that you are a such talented photographer and a patient and loving mom.

And thanks for the few glimpses of the Pie!

Fabulous photos and song. Perfect for Miss Meg. I had to keep going back to that photo where her back legs are kicked out to the side.

Congratulations on 18 months as a tripawds Meg. I'm sure you make Claire laugh every day and Elsie Pie roll her eyes.

Hugs to all,

Kerren and Tripawd Kitty Mona
