I am doing excellent, a true Tripawd living life to its fullest. Country life is treating right, I can still hunt with the best of them. Just can’t go as far as I used to, lol. I’m going to post a bunch of pics and tell you all some of my adventures over the last couple of years.
Dad and I wanted to give our deepest thanks and appreciation to the Tripawd community for helping us so very much when we needed it!
Love, Skittles
Pretty much says it alll
Thanks so much for all the support through this entire ordeal, we couldn’t have done it without you! It is absolutely amazing how a person (Michelle ) and group you’ve never met can make such a huge impact. Dad and I cannot express in words how instrumental all of you were in my recovery.
3 legged bow to all 😉
Keeping an eye on my little brother!
Feelin’ good, looking good 😉
Soaking up the Rays
What is my little brother after?
My little brother watching over me
Dad was loading up the car, so I knew we were had to be going somewhere. I was just so excited to get out of the friggin house, I didn’t care where we were headed. Well, 147 miles later we pulled in to THAT place I spent 5 long
So happy to be home with no more stitches
Your not getting me on that scale
Getting staples and stitches removed
All done, just waiting for clearance to go home.
days at and lost my front leg. To dad’s surprise, I was happy to be here. I sniffed all over before I finally let dad take me in. I proudly sauntered in and was the center of attention from both 2 legged and 4 legged animals 🙂
I wasn’t there more than 2 minutes and Mom showed up, day keeps getting better and better. Happy Mothers Day Mom! Only had to wait a few minutes and we got called back. They wanted me on the scale, you really had to be there, but suffice it to say it was hilarious. I side stepped that sucker with my back leg 4 or 5 times before they finally got my weight. I’m a pudgy girl, and don’t like being weighed in public. On the bright side, I have lost some weight 😉
Once we got in the room, 2 nice looking guys walked in. Uh oh, I remember this guy. He tells me how pretty I look and how well I have healed up. Cool, I don’t have another leg to give up, lol. Next thing I know, dad’s petting me and this guy is popping all those staples out of me. It took less than 5 minutes, and I was done. Best vet trip ever!
Stopped by Oma and Opa’s (Grandparents) house on the way home for more loving. Opa was telling me about a squirrel he feeds every morning and evening that has a missing back leg. Tripawds rule! It was great to visit them. Extra lovin everywhere, how special am I? Lol
Mothers day love 🙂
Doc says I have to take it easy for one more week, then I get to be a dog again. Feelin’ good, looking even better. Thanks again for all your support!
Xoxo,Skittles
I’ve been feeling really good, even ran after a squirrel twice. Granted, I didn’t get more than 20 feet or so before dad yelled at me. We were both pretty surprised; ) Dad says I have to chill at least until I get my staples out on Sunday. I got to visit Mom again, it was fantabulous! Didn’t get as many treats as usual, but boat loads of lovin’. My sister wasn’t there again, believe me I sniffed all over looking for her. Hopefully soon I will be able to see her again.
The weather is finally nice again, been lounging in the sunshine when I’m not sleeping on mom or dad’s bed 🙂 Feeling pretty darn awesome considering I’m down to half a pain pill only twice a day now. Still getting extra goodies in my food bowl, and bodily functions working A+
Talk to ya all when I get done with my vet appointment on Sunday Xoxo –
My little brother is happy I’m home!
Love the country life
Incision looking good day #11
Thanks for the awesome bandana 🙂
Sunshine!

Resting comfortably
Dad put me back on my pain pills at half strength and it has helped a lot. I guess I am a Princess after all. It’s been a great day, don’t get me wrong. I haven’t been outside this many times in quite a while, but I still have some pain. Not a fan of the pharmaceutical industry, but they came through this time 🙂
Thanks so much for helping and supporting us, we are forever with and indebted to the Tripawds community.
