Calling all Colorado Tripawds . . . Just when you thought it was safe to go swimming…

Mayuary happened!

Hellooooo Colorado! How I love thee!

No people, your eyes aren’t playing tricks on you. These pictures were taken yesterday. May 18, 2017.

Haw haw Mom and Dad. You took me to the hot desert all winter and thought you could run away from the cold.

But winter found me. And I am SO HOPPY!

Kick the ball, people! Let’s roll!

I tell ya, I was made for snow. I love it so much. It’s way more fun than catcuses and sand. Check out my snow plow imitation.

Winter, please stay longer OK?

Mountain Mushing Madness

Tripawd Wyatt Ray Dawg meets up with the Odaroloc Sled Dogs and goes mushing in Telluride, Colorado.

Hey Tripawders it’s been a long time, did you miss me? Sorry I haven’t written, things have been really busy here, see?

Today I’m chillaxin’ and thinking about my friends, the Odaroloc Sled Dawgs. Last week I got to hook up with them again, in the mountains. And man, was it cool. I mean like cold enough for the Huskies to do their thing: MUSH!

Hey guys remember me?

And GUESS WHO got to go along for a run? You guessed it, the only three-legged German Shepherd sled dog in the world: ME!

I’m on the team!

When I met up with them the team was practicing for their big move to Alaska in the winter, so there was no snow, but that’s OK, dirt is just fine by us.

That’s TC, and she’s lead Musher Queen. She had to look hard to find an extra big harness just for me. See, working Huskies are small, and I’m not. But that’s kewl. It fit and she found my color.

Is purple my color?

I had to chill with the boys for a while, just to make sure we all knew what each other’s butts smelled like. After all, what else do you do when you’re running with team, right?  I also had to practice my howling, just to make sure I fit in.

I can howl with the best of ’em!

Later that day, like really later, I passed the sled dawg test and got my chance to mush! We ran at night, because well, see, dogs see better than yous humans in the dark. Plus, it was super cold which is perfect for running.

Here we GOOOOOOO!

And we were off! We ran as far as any special needs sled dawg team could! There was me, and all of the retired Odaroloc team members having the time of our lives.

Don’t try this at home kids!

It was only a short fun run and not very far but dang! To be part of a TEAM, to run like the wind and pull and howl and  . . . wow! TC says I found my calling. She better watch out. I might be hitching a ride to Alaska this winter.

Next time I got another story to tell you about the Spirit of Bucky. But I’ll save that one for later, it’s good.  Over and out. And MUSH ON!

 

Birthday Boy

Tripawd Spokesdog Wyatt Ray the three-legged German Shepherd celebrates his sixth birthday.

Oh Lucky Me. Today is my birthday number SIX!

Mmmmmy birthday!

It’s been a long road to get here.

Wyatt meets his new Paw.

But I’ve arrived and life is GOOD!

Hoppy Wyatt!

I think that when Spirit Jerry got his wings on the 3rd of October, 2008, one of the first things he did was make sure he made a special star in the sky with my name on it. OK, well maybe a blazing asteroid. Or an imploding black hole. Whatever. Spirit Jerry put me up there and then someone came to get me, I was born, and the world has never been the same since!

Wild Boy Wyatt

If anyone wants to know what I want for my birthday, how about some pork tenderloin?

Pork tenderloin for the birthday boy?

See Ya Aggieland

Three legged German Shepherd Wyatt is cleared for more road trips by Texas A & M veterinarian specialists.

Today I got the best New Years Day present of all. The good doctors at Texas A&M said me and my people can hit the road again!

AggielandMy butt lump is no more. No swelling, no leaking, no more needles and more pokin’.

Today the doctors said “He looks really good” and I don’t need any more tests.

The only bad thing is I still have to get two and one half pills every day for a month, but that’s all she wrote as far as me being at Aggieland.

Tomorrow, the dog house on wheels is back on the trail.

Look out Bernie Bin Laden, here I come!
