Amazing Moose Beats the Odds Again
Harlequinn Great Dane Moose beats the odds with Wobbler’s Syndrome two years after osteosarcoma surgery
Harlequinn Great Dane Moose beats the odds with Wobbler’s Syndrome two years after osteosarcoma surgery
I just received a comment on one of my YouTube tripawd videos from The Big Dog who is undertaking an incredible journey with his two beautiful boys Murphy and Hudson. I was so touched, I just have to share it with everyone.
In January 2008, these three will embark on a 2,000 mile, 6 month walk from Austin, Texas to Boston, Massachusetts to raise money for cancer research for companion pets. Read on to view the trailer and tell everyone you know about 2 Dogs 2000 miles.
I just got a letter from my first overseas International Visitor, Lalla, a canine cancer survivor from Israel.
Lalla had her rear right leg amputated last September, due to osteosarcoma.
Lalla says that she didn’t have chemo, because “It would have really disrupted my normal happy routine: no beach, no pals and no treats!”
And even though the doctors told her she only had about 2 months left on earth. That was a year ago! Just like me, she has beaten the odds, and is now living life to the max!
I’ve been feeling sad about Rumpelstilskin. My people encouraged his to proceed with his operation and I do believe that was the best choice, but unfortunately bad things can happen during these procedures. I guess I got lucky. I wish them the best, and wish I could’ve met ol’ Rumpel.
If you’ve lost a beloved pet to cancer, send me a photo or a few words and we’ll gladly include a tribute here on my site.
Recently we went to the Lake Itasca State Park while staying at Joe’s Lodge near Bemidji, MN to continue spreading the word about how life ain’t so bad on three legs. I got a lot of attention, which I just love. And my people told everyone about what happened to me and how well I get along now. They enjoy telling people about the benefits of my surgery and the canine cancer treatment plan they’ve chosen for me, though they are cautious now to mention that complications sometimes can arise.
Did you know you can walk across the Mississippi River here? This place is where that big long river begins as a little stream. It’s kinda funny to think that later on during our sabbatical RV road trip we may be crossing this river again some 2,300+ miles to the south. Though I doubt we’ll be wading across down there!
P.S.: Be sure to check out my videos page to see my new three-legged dog swimming movie we made at Long Lake in Otter Tail County, MN. Here is a quick one of me enjoying the grass at lake Itasca…
