The other day I was skipping along the road.(Lie- I was feeling very melancholy as I truddled along). This elderly woman walked past with this dog. It had its two hind legs strapped up and attached to this axle with two wheels either end. It pulled itself along with its two front legs and seemed perfectly happy. As long as this is not an act of animal cruelty and the legs were supposed to be like that for medical reasons, then I am very happy! I think it was a very thoughtful and inventive idea, because most dogs are just put down by vets that couldn't give an arse, when they are hurt in road accidents.
