DOG RUNS FOR THE FIRST TIME THANKS TO 3D PRINTING TECHNOLOGY - “See how unique, custom-3D printed prosthetics allow derby the dog to run for the first time.”

A dog named Derby was born with deformities in his front legs and was unable to walk normally. He was adopted through an organization called Peace and Paws Dog Rescue which is based out of Hillsborough, New Hampshire. His foster parent works for a company named 3D Systems, and they have created a pair of prosthetic legs for Derby using 3D printing technology. This video shows him running with his prosthetics. It appears that Derby is really getting the most out of his new legs!
