How great! Iam an amputee too, this is so good to see this sweet dog being able to walk.

This is awesome! I am in the process of fitting a prosthetic on our 3 legged female boxer.. I am an engineer and somewhat got inspired by the dolphin tale movie as weird as that sounds! I love the lower foot piece, that is the part I have been racking my brain on! She had bone cancer and made a full recovery and does fine with only 3 legs, but I know in the future she will have joint problems due to the extra forces on that one leg. Hers had to me taken pretty high up, so there is not a whole lot

What great news about that dog. I think it's great now we have the techologly to do things lke that to help animals have a good way in life.

As someone involved with animal rescue for over 30 years I am amazed by the remark make by Mick. I have worked with blind, deaf, three-legged dogs and cats and none of them ever showed me that they weren't happy to have a soft bed, a gentle touch, good food and vet care. Unless you have helped an animal less fortunate you have no idea how much they care about being helped. Look up Patrick, the miracle dog. Thrown down a trash shoot and left for dead then tell me he isn't enjoying life to its fullest

I have a three legged chocolate lab, he is my couch potatoe. He is Happy, plays with my other dogs, and is loved by everyone.

My dog has three legs. I'd try one these if he
would tolerate it. Where would I look for one?

Check with your vet for leads in your area.

What an inspiration and demonstration of love! Keep up the good work!!

It is so inspiring to see that these animals can live life, even if they are handicapped, instead of losing their lives. I am an animal lover and believe that every animal deserves a second chance at life.

move from here and there is essantial for animals prosthesis give acvtie part with their life.

Mick, So, you can read the mind of animals. Amazing! Your alleged ability to "know" what the animal "feels" -- and that they are unhappy -- is the quintessential example of anthropomorphism. This animal would likely be content if you hacked the limb off with a jig saw and taped the end with duct tape -- provided proper healing and the preclusion of pain. But, by restoring his ability to roam, run and engage in normal, everyday activities -- via application of a prosthesis, it would seem inherently

Well said :)

Agreed

I have a three legged 10 month old belgian malinois, whom I have had since he had his leg amputated as a young pup. He is an extremely happy dog, does everything my four legged 2 year old dutch shepherd does. The pup is in training as a service dog for a wounded warrior and HAS made a huge difference in his handlers life. I am very glad this pup was not put to sleep when when he was born and he is defiently not hating life... He loves it and is making a huge difference..

If you have nothing beneficial to say, stay out of the conversation... Every living creature has a right to exist, and it appears you (as so many others) treat animals as 'things' - just throw them away when done. If you've noticed, most of these animals were maimed at the hands of 'humans'...otherwise they'd still be whole. So, it is inspirational to see that they have another chance of a full life. Go climb back under your bridge!

I hope you lose a leg, and then instead of getting prosthetics, you get put to sleep.

Humans are animals too, that is often a forgotten fact.

These animals aren't happy. It's just an example of anthropomorphism at its worst. To be truly kind the owners should bear the grief and put them to sleep.

That's all i have to say. Except that, next time i feel the urge to scroll down and read the comments on ANY page - please, just put me to sleep.
