Did everyone who came to the prepawty get to see Baby Vulture Viviian & Baby Vulture Valentino?
OMC I know Wyatt Ray would not eat kitty appetizers Admin. wouldn't let Wyatt eat tripawd kitties at least! Not sure about the quad kitties 😉
Speaking of kitties did you find homes for your kitties Sally we would love to see pictures of them too. We are not looking to add more we would just like to see the sweet babies 😉
Leave it to Tina to butt in;) (kidding) Good job Myrtle I am sure Tina loved having you on her lap! I'm sure she was missing Manni!
Franky you are a stunning in your pawty outfit!
Michelle I agree with Sally Pink is your color! I’m sure all your prepawty nerves left as soon as you got there!
Keep the pictures coming so fun to see!
Holly & Purrkins
You might think that they all looked quiet, but you should have heard all the dogs when someone walked by, or when an ambulance (or other siren) went past the park! OMD one would start to howl then everyone (almost) would join in! Do you know what 20 howling dogs sound like? We do!!! lol One family that was walking past on the path just kept looking over at the shelter like, "what on earth is going on over there?"
But I have to say that when the thunderstorm came, they did so good! I know that some of them were scared, but I think with so many of us there to help calm them, they did really well. Not one of them freaked out enough to try to run away, well, Paula almost did, but she stayed strong.
Donna, Glenn & Murphy
Murphy had his right front leg amputated due to histiocytic sarcoma at 7 years old. He survived 4 years, 2 months & 1 week, only to be taken by hemangiosarcoma at 11 1/2 years 6/12/17

Hmmmm....I may just have an auditory video of some of the...er..."conversations" the dawgs were having when they heard a siren! Havaing a lot of trouble getting stuff loaded on YouTube and Photobucket right now.
This is the Tripawd Tote Bag Karma had made and brought for each of is!! 🙂 Such a wo derful keepsake,and functional too! Not only that, she stocked it full of goodies for humans and for doggies!! A true labor of love on her part!! 🙂

And then we have ClareMeg's first bite of CHEESECAKE from The Cheesecake Factory! We had one more little gathering before Elizabeth and I had to say "until we meet again" to some of the best humanity has to offer! 🙂

CASSIE brought the most beautifully decorated cake just for the dawgs! I think others have that picture of it. But here's a picture of the other "pastries" she brought for the dawgs. Somehow, this whole bos ended up in Merry Myrtle's & Frankie's tote bag! And Frankie knows how to counter surf, so anything left on a table....welll...you can figure out the rest! 🙂
And here's a picture of the one of a kind "hello" tags that Lisa made individually for each of us. Yet another labor of love, but a lasting momento of a true lovefest of dogs and humans!!
I'm going to frame this with the Blue Ribbon Teri made for us 🙂

Oh you are CRACKING US UP! We can't stop smiling, the weekend was so much fun. EVERYONE made it so magical!
Thanks for sharing the photos so quickly. We are total slackers! Spent the day driving driving driving to see Admin's sis in Georgia but got caught up in a horrendous storm. More driving tomorrow to see her, then speeding back to Jerry's Acres after that. Meanwhile...
All three of us are in awe of the amazing time we had this weekend. I'm trying to find the words to describe how beautiful and fun and crazy and momentous the gathering was. I will find them soon, and share our photos too, promise.
Hoppy travels to all and until we meet again, may the Tripawds Nation rule the universe (or at least Richmond, Virginia!).
