In honor of Etta's 2 week ampuversary today I am posting a link to a short video from this morning of Etta going through the dog door. View and comment on YouTube
Our angel "Etta" amputation on 4-15-10 lost her front limb. initially dx'd with neurofibrosarcoma. However, after surgery they discovered histiocytic sarcoma a very aggressive cancer. After two full rounds of chemo our special angel lost her battle on 6-21-10. the sweetest and most gentle soul. Our lives are forever blessed for having known her...
Most excellent. Way to go Etta! We often get asked if Tripawds can still use a doggie door. Thanks for sharing this. And Hoppy Ampuversary!

Etta is so sweet! Loved the doggie door video!!
Angel Jake's Mom
Jake, 10yr old golden retriever (fractured his front right leg on 9/1, bone biopsy revealed osteosarcoma on 9/10, amputation on 9/17) and his family Marguerite, Jacques and Wolfie, 5yr old german shepherd and the newest addition to the family, Nala, a 7mth old Bengal mix kittie. Jake lost his battle on 11/9/2009, almost 8 weeks after his surgery. We will never forget our sweet golden angel… http://jakesjou.....ipawds.com ….. CANCER SUCKS!
great video, thanks for posting it!!! way to go etta, you are quite the 'gazelle' getting through that door!!!
Life is good, so very, very good!!! Gayle enjoyed each and every moment of each and every wonderful day (naps included). She left this world December 12, 2011 – off on a new adventure.
Love Never Ends
Great video of Etta! She goes through that door so effortlessly. Happy 2 Week Ampuversary! This celebration calls for lots of treats and more treats (and can't forget about the ice cream!)
Kami (Mackenzie's Mom)
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!
You go girl !!!!!!!!!
Happy, happy 2 weeks to you!
Comet - 1999 to 2011
She departed us unexpectedly January 23, 2011 at the age of 12 1/2.
She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.
Etta you are a genius! Way to go!!!
Gerry has been a tripawd since 12/16/2009.
He was a shelter dog with a mysterious past and an irrepairable knee injury.
Videos and pics of Gerry's pawesomeness can be found at: http://gerry.tripawds.com
Awwwwwww.....so cute!
Etta, you put the biggest smile on our faces here, please tell your Mom THANK YOU for sharing this beautiful, amazing moment with us.
Yeah Ted, we do understand. It truly is beautiful watching something like this, especially after being so afraid it would never hoppen again.
Hoppy Ampuversary Etta!!!
