Hi! I’m the Jim part of Jim and Rene @Tripawds – the largest support community for three-legged pets and their people. When our dog Jerry lost a leg to cancer in 2006, we started a small blog to share his story. The Tripawds network now hosts 2100+ three-legged dog and cat blogs and numerous pet amputation resources. In 2014 we founded the 501c3 Tripawds Foundation with one simple mission: To help amputee pets and their people everywhere.

Fast forward to late 2024, when we migrated our popular discussion forums to Circle for enhanced community engagement. I'm well versed with all aspects of the platform, and am always expanding my expertise as new Circle certifications become available. I'm now helping other clients build engaging and thriving communities of their own.

FUN FACT: Since 2007, Rene and I have been traveling full-time in our RV, working from our mobile HQ wherever we go.
