Popeye from the Archives - Strollin'

Before Popeye got his new wheelchair, I used to walk him around the neighborhood in a baby stroller.

Popeye From the Archives - Car Ride Home

I've been going through old photos and videos of Popeye over the years. He came to us in 2008, almost exactly 4 years.  I think they're worth a second look so I'll be posting them here on a daily basis.  Hope you enjoy rewatching Popeye grow.

This is Popeye just a couple of hours after he arrived from Taiwan, where he had been rescued off the streets.  He had been flown to SFO, where I picked him up. It was a looooong drive home (with lots of wrong turns), but he was so patient and quiet the whole time.  Man how he fooled me.

All proceeds will go directly to funding Callie's medical expenses.  Callie is an 8-year old quietly lovable mix who Robin & I are jointly fostering.  She has 3 lumps which have just been diagnosed as mast cell tumors.  We are currently seeing an oncologist for additional testing to determine what our best options are.  Read Callie's bio at http://www.adoptapet.com/pet7271765.html.  Updates are posted on Popeye's Facebook page.

It's not often I hear of another paralyzed dog who runs in his/her cart the way Popeye does.  Meet Scooter Jones.
