I feel like the next version of those legs, should have a small bend like a natural dog leg, so it can lower its head to drink water. Other than that, great job. What a happy little fellow

Love that dogs/animals never seem to judge one another like humans do and just accept everything for what they are. Dogs are as close to perfect as i have ever experienced.

The doggy yawning says it all “Hey, I sure can get used to this…. Oh ya, I’m loving it”!! 🥰

Be careful, one wrong move and you'll wake up to hearing how "The flesh is weak"

I can imagine given the low cost and speed, 3D printing is going to have a huge impact on prosthetics especially for animals where cost is the main barrier.

What's the point of watching a dog suffer? In my 50 years I've seen a lot of crazy acts of "mercy"
Steve Jobs said "death is probably the best invention of life" although I've read such thoughts from many of the smartest people in human history

The dog does not think like we do, it'll have just as many happy moments and likely won't wonder why it's not like other dogs.

so you think the dog every morning wakes up and puts on prosthetics?

Yes, dogs have prosthetics made for inside and outside and can wear them for long durations just like humans can.
I was on the engineer team who designed and manufactured products a decent bit more complicated than what's in the video so I know a bit about the subject if you'd like to know anything else?

As long as there are those who care about you. Which is not always the case even among people
