It’s all about the confidence!
After his former owner tried to amputate all four of his paws, Brutus has a new lease on life by becoming the second dog to have four prosthetic limbs.
When he was just a puppy, Brutus's breeder left him outside in freezing temperatures, causing him to get frostbite on all four paws.
In an attempt to save them, his owner attempted an amateur amputation at home, according to Colorado State University.
The page overfunded her goal, raising $12,500 to cover the costs of further surgeries, prosthetics, and physical therapy.
His surgery took place at James L. Voss Teaching Hospital at Colorado State University, where Dr. Trent Gall removed bone fragments, dew claws, and two toes left from his previous amputations.
Basically, no one wins. But everyone learns a valuable lesson.
