These Animals Have Thrived Despite Their Disabilities

The Cutest Underbite

And another “Daisy” makes the list of resilient animals! This Daisy is a Chihuahua mix who was born with severe deformations of her shoulders, elbows, and back hips. Walking was a challenge for her, and running was impossible. She was rescued from a Los Angeles shelter just in time to avoid being put down.

Daisy found her forever home and her new family provided her with a wheelchair. However, a vet told them that the chair was putting too much pressure on little Daisy’s spine. An orthopedics company stepped in and made her a set of prosthetic limbs, and Daisy took to them immediately. Now she runs and plays like there is nothing at all wrong with her. “Daisy is now RUNNING! Both her ears and spirit are bouncing with joy,” her family posted to Facebook after watching as she tested out her new legs.
