OK...I'm going to try and post this pic for the calendar here in the forums (since when I tried to click on the link to email that didn't work so well). I uploaded the original pick to my blog media so I hope the size thing works. The original pic file is over the size specification but when I look at the numbers in the blog media it's smaller...
Here we go...this is the pic me and hubby decided for our Angel Leland.

He looks so regal in that photo.
Kathi and Murphy
Murphy is a five year old Lab/Chessie cross. He was hit by a car on 10/29/12 and became a Tripawd on 11/24/12. On 2/5/13, he had a total hip replacement on his remaining back leg. He has absolutely no idea that he has only three legs!
UPDATE: Murphy lived his life to the fullest, right up until an aggressive bone lesion took him across the Rainbow Bridge on April 9, 2015 and he gained his membership in the April Angels. Run free, my love. You deserve it!
Ok...now that I've come down off my "high" of finally figuring out how to add pictures to the forums, I want to say that we have a mighty fine looking bunch of Tripawds out there!!
Sally,
All the pics of Hannah are just precious! It would be hard to pick just one.
Kati,
I don't think Murphy could take a bad pic. They all look professionally done but I think I like him smiling the best.
Rachel,
The pic of Theo in the bow tie is just adorable.
Lori,
I too decided to go with a pic of Leland before the amp. His health just declined after the surgery and I don't think those pics captured the true essence of who he was.
And I can't forget the pics of Angel Jake and Tanner...just gorgeous!!
I know there's others that I forgot to mention but if I go back through to find their names then I lose my posting and I have to start all over again...already did that once...lol
Keep sending in the wonderful pics...we sure do love looking at them.

I loke the one of Theo with the snsggletooth showing! But every single one...OMD! You just fall in love over and over and over!!!!
YAAAAY Sahana...a computer genius in the making! I agree, Leland looks absolutely Regal....sooooo noble! This is DEFINITELY perfect!
And then wenhave Marthaw magnificen Oaktown Pack! I love the healthy and fit energy that each picture conveys...nothing can hold this pack down!!
Oh, Rachael and Sahana....I don't even know how to find out my pixles or "sizes"....I do think that if the pictures don t "conform", the Admin Guy figures out a way to make them work.
Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
