Dog receives 3D-printed legs, runs for first time

Squee here

Derby is a cool dog. He is from New Hampshire. Check out his life story, it will make you smile!

From the article:

Derby was born with underdeveloped front limbs, and although he was otherwise a healthy dog, that one difference nearly caused him to be put down. The young dog's original owners decided they didn't want him anymore, and he soon wound up at the Peace and Paws Dog Rescue shelter in Hillsborough, N.H. But he wasn't unwanted for long.
