Model airplane wheels give puppy another chance to walk


What do you do with a dog born without legs? Give him wheels instead. And not just any wheels, but the wheels from a model airplane. That's exactly what orthotist David Turnbill did for this little dog, named Hope. Each "wheely leg" can move on their own like independent suspension giving Hope the ability to pivot and turn. This bionic dog now has the ability to live a somewhat normal life. Ahh, aviation, making the world a better and cuter place again.
