Disabled Dog Gets its Mobility Back
Occurred on May 1, 2018 / Orange Park, Florida, USA
Info from Licensor: "My friend got a puppy that, unbeknownst to him, had a spinal deformity. As the dog got a little older he began losing the ability to control his back legs. The vet had suggested my friend put the dog down, but he couldn't bring himself to do it because the dog didn't seem to be in pain and he was still quite happy; as all puppies are.
When I saw his puppy I volunteered to make him a wheelchair. I did some research, found a model to use for 3D printing, made some adjustments, printed the parts, and then assembled everything.
It worked out great!"
