Severely bowlegged stray dog gets lifesaving surgery

This dog's lucky day!

A shepherd mix abandoned in Greece due to a severe deformity of his front legs (brought on by nutritional deficiencies) has been saved by a UK-based dog rescue organization. Sandy could barely walk before a dog charity raised the funds to send him to Cambridge, where a top surgeon performed Sandy’s surgery for free.

Sandy (shown above post-surgery) is now almost completely healed, and is undergoing post-surgical physical therapy so that he can learn to walk again.
