Golden Retriever Receives 3D Printed Prosthetic Leg

The Irish Retriever Rescue (IRR) is a collaboration between dog lovers in the UK and Ireland who are committed to rescuing abandoned, unwanted or abused golden retrievers. More than 100 dogs are rehomed by this charity every year, and one special dog currently living in a foster home got some extra attention from IRR due to a deformity in his right front leg. Duke, who had been abandoned, was taken in by the IRR, where it was discovered that his leg was underdeveloped with an enlarged paw, making it impossible for him to walk on it. The IRR turned to service bureau CBM, which helped develop a 3D printed leg for Duke to walk with. Read more at 3DPrint.com: http://3dprint.com/177242/3d-printed...etic-leg-duke/
