Less than 24 hours left to enter and/or vote for your favorite pups for the 2 Million Dogs’ Cancer Can’t Keep a Good Dog Down 2012 calendar contest. The contest ends tonight, October 1st, at 12 midnight Central time. Still a few hours to vote!
Lily epitomizes the phrase “Puppy Up!”.
(by Hope Lisle) CANCER. TOUCHES. EVERYONE.
But it has touched Lily 3 times:
MAST CELL CANCER.
OSTEOSARCOMA.
LYMPHOMA.
Lily has fought back each and every time with the courage and tenacity of a bulldog. Lily does not give up. She is missing one leg and one lobe of her lung and has endured several surgeries and numerous rounds of chemo. Her spirit and her personality have blossomed through all of the trials and tribulations. She is only becoming sweeter with age.
Lily doesn’t do anything halfway. She never ceases to amaze me, whether it is giving birth to 18 puppies in 2002, chasing a border collie down the street last summer, climbing all of the steps at Red Rocks Amphitheater last fall or proving her veterinary oncologists wrong time after time.
Please vote for the dog who just doesn’t give up. Thank you.
