Ppuppy rescued from a dumped bin has new prosthetic legs

Born without front legs, the puppy was tied up in a bag and left to die in a bin at just a few weeks old. He was scared, alone, and if he hadn’t have been found he would have died.

Thankfully, someone passing by heard his whines for help.

He was brought in to the Dog Rescuers Inc, who decided to call him Cupid – thanks to his heart-shaped nose.


They gave Cupid plenty of TLC, made sure he was well-fed, and set to work on helping him to recover.

They noticed that his tail was disfigured, as if someone had cut it with scissors, and that his missing paws made it incredibly difficult for him to stand, walk, and even pee or poo without being supported.

Cupid needed a lot of help. He had a long way to go. But the Dog Rescuers were willing to put in the effort to make sure Cupid finds a home.

They worked with PawsAbility to fit Cupid with brand new prosthetic front legs, made just for him.
