š¾ Helping Dogs and Cats Move Again
Dogs and cats are the most common household pets worldwide. When they need an adaptive deviceālike a knee brace, hock brace, or prosthetic legāfinding the right fit is essential. It restores not just mobility, but also quality of life.
Weāve shared stories likeĀ Cassidy the DogĀ andĀ Oscar the Cat, but there are many more. These inspiring examples show how custom orthotics and prosthetics give pets their freedom back.
š¾ Edward the Pug
Born with three legs and a stump, Edward faced a tough start. American expert Martin Kaufmann designed a peg-leg and harness just for him. With his new leg, Edwardās mobility and quality of life improved dramatically.
š¾ Dymka the Cat
Found on a roadside in Siberia, Dymka lost her legs to frostbite. Scientists at Russiaās Tomsk Polytechnic Institute 3D-printed four titanium legs and implanted them into her bones. Today, she runs, climbs stairs, and shares her life with Rhyzikāthe first cat to receive four titanium prosthetics.
š“ Giving Farm Animals a Second Chance
Around the world, people care for horses and goats as both pets and livestock. Horses often help ranchers move cattle, while goats serve many purposesāfrom providing milk to managing weeds. In the past, a serious injury like a broken leg often meant the end for these animals. Thankfully, thatās no longer the case.
Stories likeĀ Riley the MareĀ show that with the right prosthetic device, horses and other farm animals can not only surviveābut thrive. Advances in animal orthotics and prosthetics have made it possible to restore mobility, comfort, and quality of life, even after severe injuries.
š Valentino the Goat
After breaking his front leg, Valentino underwent amputation. His first prosthetic lacked stability. Prosthetist Adam Williams stepped in and crafted a new leg using carbon fiber, titanium, and stainless steel. Now, Valentino lives a full and active life at Serenity Animal Farm in Alabama.
š Bet on a Star
This horse survived Hurricane Irma but developed a severe infection from standing in floodwater. Doctors amputated his foot, and Dr. Ted Vlahos designed a prosthetic leg. Known as ā81,ā Bet on a Star now serves as a therapy horse, helping others heal.
š Beyond Land: Helping Air and Sea Creatures, Too
Land animals arenāt the only ones who benefit from adaptive devices. Air and sea creatures sometimes need support too.
Weāve featuredĀ Beauty the Bald EagleĀ andĀ Fuji the Dolphin, both of whom faced life-threatening conditions. Beauty received a 3D-printed beak after a gunshot injury. Fuji was fitted with a custom tail that allowed her to swim again.
These storiesāand many othersāshow whatās possible when compassion meets innovation.
š§ Bagpipes the Penguin
In 2007, Bagpipes injured his left foot in a fishing net in the South Pacific. Veterinarians amputated the foot, and Bagpipes lived for years with just one. Eventually, doctors fitted him with a custom plastic foot. It helps him swim and includes a rubber sole for walking on land.
š¦ Pete the Parrot
In 2016, Pete lost his left foot after a fox attack. His owners rushed him to Penn Vet in Philadelphia, where doctors amputated the rest of his leg. They designed a custom prosthetic to help Pete live a full life. Since parrots can live into their 60s, this new leg gives Pete a bright future.
š¢ Goody the Sea Turtle
Goody lost a flipper after getting tangled in fishing gear. Scientists at Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok rescued her and fitted her with a prosthetic flipper. She can now swim and maneuver with ease. While she may never return to the sea, her improved quality of life gives hope to other injured turtles.
š Mister Stubbs the Alligator
Mister Stubbs lost his tail due to injuries from illegal animal trafficking. Alligators rely on their tails to walk and swim, so this was a major setback. Thanks to 3D printing, he received a custom prosthetic tail. Now, he moves naturally on land and in water.
