With prosthetic legs and bright green Crocs, Spencer the Bulldog learns to walk

Dogs are so amazing.

They don't realize they have a disability.

They just want to be dogs.

Spencer's legs were paralyzed by a spinal injury.

Special prosthetic legs were molded for him.

No one knew if the experiment would work.

But all Spencer wanted was a chance
to go for walks with his brother,
a blind pig.

This is a wonderful feel good story. Dogs are amazing creatures they enjoy the simplest of pleasures and never complain... Not to mention they are unconditionally affectionate. People should take heed to there ways and maybe our society would not be filled with bitchers, complainers and free loading lazy ass losers!!!!!
