That happy life on three legs is what led Jim and Rene to create the Tripawds community. Their travels with Jerry inspired them to write Be More Dog: Learning to Live in the Now, which tells the entire story from the beginning.
Dr. Alex Avery is a practicing veterinarian in New Zealand, and the creator of ourpetshealth.com. Rene and Jim first interviewed Dr. Alex for the Tripawd Talk Radio podcast episode, Best Pet Health Tips for Tripawds from Dr. Alex Avery.
