How could you not SMILE while watching this???? 
AWESOME PAWTY, AWESOME PEOPLE, AWSOME PUPS AND AWESOME VIDEO!!!
Great Job Elizabeth!!
So glad you guys got together.. what a great day you all had!!
Christine... with Franklin in her heart♥
Franklin, he was the Happiest Dog on Three Legs! Diagnosed 09/26/2012 with Osteosarcoma, amputated 12/4/2012. Had a wonderful 5 1/2 months painfree until he ran for the Bridge on 5/15/2013. Always in my heart, and always a guardian angel of my pack... You can follow his Tripawd Adventures, before and after, in my blog, Frank'n'Farter!
Elizabeth, wow -- you really outdid yourself. *Wow!!!* Love that slideshow! So many fun memories!
I lot of my phone pics didn't turn out so well since there were so many action shots, but will definitely post the few short videos and decent pics I did get.
Btw, Lexie wants to know if Tanner asked about her today...
Deb and Angel Lexie* Diagnosed at age 13. Tried radiation first; wish we had amputated upon diagnosis (even with lung mets). Joined Club Tripawd April 2014 & Lexie loved life on 3 legs! Advice: Start physical therapy as soon as your vet clears it, especially hydrotherapy if available :-) See Lexie pics here.
OK so I watched this a.m. (today) at work and I love it even more! What a great day!!! I definitely want to come to next one! What a great day!!! Thank you for doing such a great job!

Our story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife
Deb, I am going to get some pics together for everyone. A bunch of our action shots came out blurry as well, too much excitement and energy but I did get some really great ones. Tanner and Lexi definitely had a thing going, I think Tanner found his first girlfriend 
...and Lexi, you little cougar you!! LOL

So awesome! Great job with the photos, video, and music. JUST perfect! I got a little choked up watching this near the end. What a special, special bond we have with each other and to our furbabies. Amazing. Whoa. I'm so glad you all got together and had one heck of a pawrty!

ACL tear in right hind leg 12/5/12 and scheduled ACL repair surgery 12/21/12. Pre-op xrays revealed osteosarcoma. Amputation 12/28/12. Chemo (carboplatin) started Jan 10, 2013 and ended on April 5, for a total of 5 doses. He handled carbo like a champ! No side effects. We started metronomic therapy at his third chemo and have been also doing some holistic treatments. He's a lively, playful 10 year old huskie-boarder collie and a very proud member of the Winter Warriors! Our love. Our funny little guy!
ELOZABETH! Do you have any pictures of Tanner giving the "bag lady" the stink eye? The one he wouldn't leave alone because she had treats in her bag? OHHHHHHH I hope so! You've got to tell the story at least!
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!
I don't have any pictures of Tanner harassing that poor lady, I think I was too busy trying to get him to leave her alone hehe! We were all in the small dog run at the dog park and had a few local pups come in to join the party. This sweet lady brings in an adorable (and big) 12 week old puppy (who by the way Myrtle LOVED). I don't think her feet hit the ground before my ole scrounge caught a whiff of the treats in her pocket. He would NOT leave that poor lady alone. He stood right in her way, nudged at her pockets with his nose over and over again; and, gave her the stink eye forever until she finally dug a treat out and gave it to him. LOL. He is one rotten scrounge dog!!!!!
Look who I caught teaching Myrtle the stink eye:

LMBO over here!! TANNER you are a masterful TEACHER of all that is good.....and was away less good!
Yes, she has put the stink eye on my since Sunday and now I know why!
That was such a good time! Again, a gazillion thank n yous for that incredible slide show.
I keep laughing every time I think about Myrtle coming up a d licking your camera lens as you were trying to take picturs! And the ever so patient Eric saying with immense restraint innhis voice, "Elizabeth, she's licking the lens (slobbering all over it is more like it!), you might want to wipe off the lens." Now, I don't know much about cameras, but this was not a "point and shoot"....This had big lenses, attachments and all sorts of high dollar stuff!
