Peyton's Path

Wow how time flies. We have not posted since Barney came to visit us in April. The little rug-rat Rhys has been growing like a weed, before we know it he will be as big as me. Pretty soon humans won’t be able to tell us apart except for my red collar and his green one. He is a pretty cool dude, but still gets on my nerves at times.

These last few weeks we have been able to spend time with our Tripawd friends. I thought it would be fun to post some of the pictures for everyone. First we went to a Tripawd Pawty and it was pawesome. There were so many tripawds I couldn’t count them all. There were big ones and little ones, young ones and old ones. Even some that had only been tripawds for a couple of weeks. Peyton would have loved meeting all of these wonderful dogs!

I would like all of you to know that every time we have seen Wyatt, he thinks Rhys looks very tasty. For some reason that little blond fuzz ball has Wyatt’s name all over him, but not anymore. We are happy to report that Rhys and Wyatt got along great at the Tripawd Pawty. Rhys even instigated a little playtime with Wyatt!

Next we attended the 2nd Annual Canine Cancer Walk. We went last year and it was two weeks after Peyton had his leg amputated. That was also the first time we had met Jim, Rene, and Wyatt. So naturally we had to go again this year in honor/memory of Peyton and all of the wonderful cancer friends we have met along the way.

The four of us walked really fast and had lots of fun. We were the first people/dogs to finish the long walk. Go Team Tripawds!!!! If you look closely at Mom and Dad’s shirts they made them special in honor of Peyton. Rhys and I got to wear Tripawd bandannas that Mom modified with Peyton’s name! He would have had so much fun if he was still with us!!! We miss him very much!
