Rene is the co-founder of Tripawds, the world's largest online support community for three legged pets and their people. Tripawds provides free resources, education and support to those whose dog or cat is faced with amputation and oftentimes, bone cancer. Jim Nelson and Rene Agredano are a married couple who live, work and write from the road in their RV. Their nomadic life began in 2007, when they sold their home, business and nearly everything they owned to travel with their terminally-ill dog, Jerry. Given just a few months to live after his leg amputation, Jerry's bone cancer diagnosis at age eight turned their lives upside down and around. But against all odds, Jerry defied the bleak prognosis. He enjoyed two unforgettable years hopping along on three legs, from coast-to-coast and back again. Wherever he went, his joyful nature inspired others to look beyond adversity and embrace the present moment. The trio founded Tripawds.com, the world's largest support community for three legged pets and their people. Later in 2014 they formed the non-profit Tripawds Foundation to aid amputee pets. The couple continues managing Tripawds and chronicling their travels at liveworkdream.com.
