A puppy named Naki’o lost his four paws to frostbite. He’s now the face of the bionic animal revolution.

The story is actually two years old, but still very relevant today.

Naki’o is the first dog to be fitted with a complete set of bionic paws that work naturally to allow him to run, jump and even swim.

The prosthetics were designed and fitted in a pioneering procedure by Martin Kaufmann, founder of Orthopets, providers of a new lease on life for our furry friends.

A heart-warming story, and another stunning example of how technology is affecting our lives and the lives of those we care deeply for.
