I love your report and photos of Bernie the "puppy" !! Glad to hear that Linda is adjusting too.
We also have a new addition, so I know what it feels like to still be missing Max and yet loving the new life in your home!
Take care and so glad to see the update

Grateful for every moment we had with Paris…..no regrets!
Honoring her life by opening our hearts & home to Addy!

Well it does not sound as though he is growing as quickly as Cemil (40 lbs at 3 months, holy cow! I assume Bernie is about 3 months now - is he?).
No, he's definitely not growing as fast as Cemil! Lucky for us, since one of his favorite morning activities is to flop across the face of whichever one of us is still sleeping and molest us until we're gasping for air and trying to escape. If he were Cemil's size we wouldn't survive! Bernie is about four months, and 20+ lbs is more than enough for that age. The vet thinks he'll end up in the 70-80 pound zone - about where Max was.

You are right! Disaster adverted!

She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.

How come we didn't get to see puppy pics of Anka??
Comet, you can find puppy pics of Anka in Chuy's blog. There's even a short video. 😉
Chuy, showing everyone that Tripawds do everything 3 times better than regular dogs!
OKIE DOKIE, Chuy!
