Well, I have been really hanging around Petfinder lately. Trying to think about what we are looking for in another dog. For now, I thought that I’d post links to tripawds that I find there just to give them a little more visibility. I have also been posting these in the rescue forum on the tripawds site; but I figure every little bit of visibility can help.

It’s kind of funny that many of us don’t know how to act without a 3-legged dog in the house. I know I’ve felt the same way. I still have my tripawd, but I can’t imagine having nothing but quadpawds now.
I do miss having a dog I can take on long walks or hikes, though. I have 2 dogs that are not good candidates for that. Dakota just can’t do it and Evelyn is a bulldog, and bulldogs aren’t built for hikes. Sometimes I think I need to borrow a high-energy dog for a hiking partner.
Whenever the time is right to add to your pack, I hope Spencer guides the process. I hope that whoever he sends your way makes your beautiful children just as happy as Spencer did. You all deserve to have that again.
