Here is Charley at 12 weeks post amputation of his left front leg (osteosarcoma proximal humerus). He’s running, playing, and jumping in the snow like he has always been a tripawd!
Charley’s amputation was on 10-28-10 and this video was taken on 1-23-11.
Charley celebrated his 19 Month Ampuversary on 5-28-12!!!
One thing I have learned from this unwanted OS journey is that our dogs live in the moment. Charley is still the same happy labby boy we knew before his amputation, only minus a leg. To be honest, there are days when my hubby and I forget he only has 3 legs.
Charley reminds us everyday that he is living with cancer, not dying from cancer. As Eleanor Roosevelt said, “Today is a gift. That is why we call it the present.”
Below is a link to a video of Charley playing in the snow, just 12 weeks post amputation of his L front leg. It is amazing to watch! He can do everything on 3 legs that he did with 4! Charley is our hero!!!
