It’s been a while since they left us, but those dogs are always in our hearts.

Cindi & Jack, you and your pups are so very special to us. Thank you so much for honoring our boy, along with Caira Sue and Maggie. We are so grateful that he had the privilege of meeting such wonderful people and their Tripawd Heroes so long ago in January 2010. That was a very special trip for us, and the memories will last a lifetime. I think of that trip often. Max had been sick and we almost cancelled. Then by some miracle he rebounded and we had an absolutely wonderful time and so did he, not showing one sign of the illness we knew existed in his lungs. It was so amazing to meet so many other Tripawds that we had communicated with on this forum. Many of those Tripawd Heroes have since passed on, and that is another reason that trip is so special for us. I often think of the lyric from Heroes (David Bowie) when I think about that day at Mill Valley Dog Park:
“Though nothing, will keep us together
We could steal time,
just for one day
We can be Heroes, for ever and ever
What d’you say?”
And Heroes they were and forever shall be. Thank you for being our friends. It is something we continue to cherish daily.

You guys are the best! Thank you so much for remembering Maggie, Max and Caria Sue. That January meet up was the only time we got to meet Max in person and the last time we got to see Caria Sue and her pack. It was a glorious day when we formed new friendships and strengthened existing ones. I love that the bonds we formed through our tripawd journeys are so strong today.

Mack and Cindi, this was such a loving and thoughtful way to honor some very special Souls.
And tribute was paid to David Bowie..sweeet! 🙂
It also gave me the opportunity to go back and get to know Caria Sue a little better. I’m a little more familiar with Maximutt (Max). And very familiar with Stubborn Pug Maggie as her legacy looms large through Karen and her support in the site.
A d I realized I’d also missed a couple of blogs on the Beautiful Petite Princess, her Angel Sister Penny and the adorable Dusty! The story about “Bo”, WOW, just WOW!
I hope everyone realizes that Caria Sue, Max and Maggie, and Penny too, are furever in our hearts and are all true heroes!!
Lots of love to all!
