Rio and I are looking for Tripawds, two-pawds, quadpawds, and any other pawds that want to join us as we walk our two miles in Auburn, WA.
Join Us!

If you can't walk with us in Washington, there are 30 other cities that have walks on the same day — we can be a virtual team!!!!

We already are signed up, ( I did it on-line, first time EVER) woo hoo!  I doubt we will be walking, but we will be there cheering away!  I think Pam had mentioned she might be there too.  Where are the rest of team tripawd?  Come on guys, lets hop for the cancer cure 🙂

GO GO GO GO!  Team Tripawds!!!

 

Meghan, Forget about the dog part, I was wondering if we had to actually walk! 

Her Retired AvatarComet - 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.

Or if you can't walk with us, consider sponsoring us?! Our goal is $500 and we need a few generous donors to help us meet this goal... We're walking for all of us and all of our dogs, and even if you can only spare $5, every little bit helps. As they say ... CANCER. TOUCHES. EVERYONE.

We donated and will be walking with you in spirit. Wish we could really walk with you. That would be fun.

Jackie, Abby's mom

Abby: Aug 1, 2009 – Jan 10, 2012. Our beautiful rescue pup lived LARGE with osteosarcoma for 15 months – half her way-too-short life. I think our "halflistic" approach (mixing traditional meds + supplements) helped her thrive. (PM me for details. I'm happy to help.) She had lung mets for over a year. They took her from us in the end, but they cannot take her spirit! She will live forever in our hearts. She loved the beach and giving kisses and going to In-N-Out for a Flying Dutchman. Tripawds blog, and a more detailed blog here. Please also check out my novel, What the Dog Ate. Now also in paperback! Purchase it at Amazon via Tripawds and help support Tripawds!
