A young man experienced in producing prosthetic limbs was approached by a vet for help with a dog.
From that one dog, things have expanded and he now makes over 200 limbs a month. His clients are everything from cats to elephants.

It is so good that there is a company specializing in prosthetics for animals. With all the different animals in need, new materials and lots of practice, making limbs for animals is becoming an art. No matter what the injury, animals are regaining mobility and living fuller lives. Some of the limbs are unusual looking, but the animals seem to like them.
We could wish that no animal ever needed his help again, but if they do they Derrick will be there to help them.
