Prosthetic paw


Isn't it wonderful how much can be done these days to help our pets.

This Belgian Shepherd dog had lost his paw after being diagnosed with cancer in his foot........ not only did he have an artificial paw fitted, his actual skin grew into the metal providing a seal against infection.
