dog deformed legs gets 3d prosthetic legs run

Last Updated on January 13, 2023 by Pets Feed

Derby, a husky mix dog born with severely deformed front legs, can now walk thanks to some of the latest 3D printing technology. American company 3D Systems has created custom prostheses for Derby that resemble the legs of a rocking chair so he can finally run for the first time in his life.

It all started when Derby was adopted by Tara Anderson, who works at 3D Systems. He was going to be euthanized until he was picked up by Peace and Paws, a non-euthanasia shelter that gave him a chance to live, which obviously wasn’t in vain.

The prostheses will initially be low and will gradually rise as Derby gets used to them.
