Here’s my sweet Aspen having a break on the trail!
She is laying in a stream drinking between her front paws. She is a black husky/heeler mix and a right hind leg amputee. #WednesdayWags #DogSky #tripoddogs #tripawdogs #traildog #dog
Black dog with white chest lower legs and face sitting on ocean shore rocks obliquely facing the viewer with late afternoon sunlight illuminating her. Dog has both front legs and the left hind leg. Pointy ears, one blue eye, one brown eye.
Waiting for the tide to come in?
No, just waiting for her people to get tired of searching for hermit crabs!

Black and white husky-heeler dog, her face and neck. She is looking to the right, a blue eye showing. She is surrounded by greenery and grass and has two blades of grass draped over her head!
Black and white husky-heeler dog lying in grass and tiny plants on her side. Her mouth is open pointing at a human’s denim knee at top left of picture, and she’s pawing at the person in play.
Black and white husky-heeler dog lying in green leafy plants and grass. Body pointing to the right but head tipped to the left, showing a brown eye.
This dog is so stinkin cute. I love her so much! #WednesdayWags #DogSky #tripawdogs #traildog #dogsofbluesky
Black and white dog lies in a stream facing the viewer. Her head is slightly turned as she drinks from the stream while she lays in it. Her tongue is in the act of scooping up some water.
Aspen sure enjoys her stream stops in the mountains! She is pure mindfulness. Always grounded in the moment. #tongueouttuesday #DogSky #tripawdogs #hiking #nationalforest #saveourpubliclands.
Between the ears view riding a bay mare through a young, sunlit aspen forest of breathtaking green.
Wildflowers: Monkshood, 5 purple hood-shaped flowers on their own stems growing in staggered positions from a tall stalk. And wild geranium, five-petaled pale pink flowers with dark pink threads longways through the petals. Green blurred forest in the background.
Front half of a fuzzy black-and-white dog, half heeler and half husky with white forelegs. She’s lying down in the grass with her head cocked, ears and eyes pointing upward to where my husband out of frame is preparing snacks.
Between the ears view of riding a bay mare along a creek and through spruce trees.
Lovely ride in the mountains yesterday on my heart-horse, Zil, and my tripaw, Aspen

Black and white dog lays in a green yard, with a calico cat walking and turning to her instead of passing by.
Aspen and her cat!

Love from Aspen
#WednesdayWags #TripawDogs #DogSky I’m so grateful for how well Aspen recovered from that surgery. She’s still an amazing trail dog after all these years (though the trips are a bit shorter and less steep)!
Aspen, a black and white husky-heeler mix with a blue eye showing, sits in a trail beside some snow. Her right hind leg is amputated below the thigh and the shaved area has light gray fur growing on it.

Aspen, Christmas 2018, one of her first outings along with a horseback ride after her amputation!
A small husky cross stands facing the camera with her face uplifted in mid-“rowr-rowr-rowr!”
I have been informed that it is time to feed the dog. #WednesdayWags #DogSky #TripawDogs
Black dog with white on face (husky/heeler) sitting in a mountain meadow with tops of peaks in the background, contours appearing sculpted by the patches of snow on them. On the Lizard Head trail in Colorado.

#Colorado What a fantastic dog Aspen is. Three legs and 2900 foot ascent was no problem last year. If she can climb so high, surely I can make it through another week managing my bipolar symptoms!
Black & white husky/heeler cross with no right hind leg is lying on her side across a dog bed (most of her body) and a cat bed (neck and head) In front of a bookcase.

Two beds is better than one!
Black dog with white on her face and her tongue out runs through tall green grass toward the camera. It’s Aspen, my tripawed best friend!
Happy spring!

Black and white husky-heeler mix named Aspen. She’s also a hind leg amputee and a wonderful trail dog.
#WednesdayWags #dogs #DogSky #tripawdogs #bipolar #traildog
Dogs just love you, whether you’re manic or depressed. Aspen keeps me grounded because no matter what my mood is doing, I still have responsibility and her loyalty. it’s enough to keep from shutting down. And all that love. And softness. ❤️
Taking time to reflect on what beauty and community there is. #reflection #mindfulness #depression #dogs #tripawdogs #lake #nature #peace #Sanjuanmountainscolorado
Aspen lying in dry grass with the tip of her tongue on her nose! She’s a husky/heeler combo with one blue eye and one brown eye.
Between the ears of my sorrel Quarter Horse Violet, on a trail with Aspen running ahead. Aspen is a hind leg amputee.
Aspen lying in the grass, looking up from chewing on an elk antler.
Aspen lying beside a wood fence at an old homestead along the trail.
It is now the hour of Puppy Worship.
I’m loving on my sweet Aspen. 🥰

My iPhone photo app did this to me! 🥹 #DogSky #TripawDogs #HorseSky
Green ferns with a dog so utterly in them that only her black-and-white head shows, popping out the top. Her pink tongue is out, licking her nose.
Between the ears seen by rider of a gold chestnut Arabian horse on a trail through bright green broad-leaved flowers with white umbels. Beside them is an old, long fallen tree trunk pointing away parallel to the direction of the horse’s travel.
I’m ready for summer. I mean, really ready. And so is little Aspen. And rolly-polly Sunflower. #DogSky #TripawDogs #wilderness #saveourpubliclands #HorseSky #arabianhorse
