May she continue as happy as she is now for a very looooooooooong time !
Sending you all my love and lots and lots of cuddles to your fluffies plus woof woofs from Eureka

I wish she could learn to relax and be a little more outgoing....

This is just so joyous! And Eurydice looks fantastic! So, so happy, she is literally bouncing for joy. Thanks for posting. I haven't been on for a bit, as we have been flooded out. No internet and general nightmare. This made me smile from ear to ear. So much joy you and Eurydice bring! Thank you.
Sending love and big jumping cuddles,

Thank you so much for sharing. I think Miss Cow is taller than the vet! She is so happy and full of joy! My good friend from high school also has a golden who was just diagnosed with OSA and had a rear amp last week. I directed her to your blog. It helped me so much in the beginning. Eurydice is the Tripawd Mascot of how great life on 3 can be.
Happy hugs!!!

Hi everybody 💗💗💗
Eurydice here 🐮
THANK you so much for your words, you are amazing, loving, kind, sweet humans and I totally adore your sense of humour too 😁
Don't think for a minute we dawgs don't have a sense of humour, we do 🐾😆😆😆🐾 it just happens we cannot laugh like you do but we laugh with our eyes 👀 and tails 🏓🏓🏓
Yup, I adore Kelvin and the rest of the team at the hospital, they are so wonderful to me and I KNOW they are there to help me and most important to me is they reassure my Mom everything is done to fight whatever is trying to get me 👊🏾💪🏽 so I can kick its ugly face 🐾🐾 💨💨💨💨💩 real hard 👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾
🐮 I cannot tell you how good it feels to have such a wonderful loving human team alongside me and Mom 👩🏼
Sending you hiuuuge licks 👅👅👅👅 to you and your babies 🐶🐱🐶🐱🐶🐱🐶 and I'm sure of Mom knew I'm replying to you she would send "an avalanche 🌬🌬🌬🌬🌬🌬of kisses" as she always does ☺️

Sweet, lovable Eurydice. She has a good time no matter where she goes. I suspect Kelvin has to be careful he doesn't get bonked by her head when she bounces around.
I know she brings you much joy. Thanks for sharing it with us
