Nubby The 2-Legged Boxer Steals His Dad’s Heart | The Dodo Comeback Kids

One day we received a phone call. There was a

boxer

who was born without front legs. I ran past Mark and told him I had to go find a

boxer

. He doesn't have front legs and he just goes fine and I thought to myself. I don't know if he really heard that or not. I didn't really hear it an hour or two later she comes home with this. All I can think is how the hell are we going to do this. You're talking about a bottle that weighs 13.5 ounces. those little dogs like that don't survive we are fighting what do we do how do we feed it what do we feed it we never imagined that anyone would survive the first night our first night was gnarly it was horrible I was terrified that outside I was going to die I didn't know if I was drinking everything even though I was supposed to He must have been drinking and we literally had him in a little box with a timer and we got up every hour, you know, we took turns, he had twins.

I'm used to taking a shift, Nubby made it through the first night, we couldn't believe it, we made it through the next night and then the next night, Nubby from the beginning was very active, we built the Lego wheelchair, we put some little truck wheels on it . She wrapped his front in gauze and he just went sliding across the floor when he was about two or three weeks old. We were looking at Nubby saying you're really going to make it, but he got vacuumed with pneumonia, he was still happy, you could tell. He was just a happy little boy, but he was sick and the army was very sick.

He went into the ICU and we almost lost him every day. We'd go there and see Nubby. I never saw him give up. He got better after that, so I really knew he was going to make it. Nubby's return had a lot of ups and downs, but at the end of the day he's just a happy dog ​​as he got a little older. He wanted to stop, I think at that moment he realized he didn't. You have four legs, where are you going? We keep falling. He wanted to pick him up right away, but he knew Nubby would need to learn to move on his own and he realized.

Olivia Pig, she was very motherly, Maggie, very loving, on the other. The hand had nothing to do with it Gracie is more, the killjoy wasn't very amused when we brought Rita here with Nubby, they just bonded right away, we really weren't expecting Nubby to surprise us with his ears, his ears got bigger and Bigger and bigger and more flexible, it was ridiculous, Mark became so attached that we did everything we could to keep his legs strong. We had a sling and I would walk around and hold it like a suitcase when he was really having a hard time holding the front of it.

For food, I built a feeding stand when Nubby discovered she could lunge and jump. The first one scared us and he was just watching his mind work to not give up once he started, that there was nothing stopping him, we thought, well, there really is. nothing he can't do, we went ahead and got him a set of wheels, he hated it, we got him a second set of wheels and he hated them, everyone has this little dog and these little wheels running around hell-bent on glory and our dog won. He didn't use them, but the first time he saw a child he realized that he could roll and once he started he learned that he could go from point a to point b, but it wasn't long after that when He got ill.

His playing time generally that's what scared us. It's late at night. It's been a difficult day. We are here. This is where we are going to sleep tonight. He ended up with pancreatitis. He lost a lot of weight quickly. What else could happen? wrong, it's a scary thought, but if you live your life every day with the scary thought that I might get sick or hurt, you can't live your life that way, live your life with joy and hope, Nubby has recovered only with vengeance . once he's done with his exercise we allow Nubby to come off his wheels and go crazy he's excited about everything he's a bit manic he's very clever yes, very special he has that look on his face like he has no idea he's not, he's a smart little guy over there does it, but you're not going to eat your bed.

No, did you actually break those flip flops to eat him? He has a conspirator, which is Rita. Did your

nubby

do this? Did you kill that hedgehog? So we have two injured squirrels. monkey all of these are in the hospital we have a funeral at six rest in peace you'll see him running around like he's not even missing anything he's just that's how I do it that's how I roll

nubby

sees the world like any other dog he thinks it is like the rest of the nubby pack he obviously has to have a different way of getting around but other than that he still wants to play he is happy he has a great quality of life we ​​didn't realize what he was going to need at the time I originally built this house With Nubby, we knew we had to make some changes so he wouldn't feel different.

We consider ourselves average Americans. He did all the construction. We are doing it on a tight budget. This is the new door. for nubby's condo i don't care if it's nubby or any animal your goldfish once you've made that commitment it's your job to make sure they have a good quality of life don't let them eat everything merry christmas merry christmas us I have a grandson named Lainey Lainey grew up with Nubby. She doesn't see any difference between Nuby and any other dog. He's just Nubby. You walk into the room and they're sitting together and they look at you like, what do you want?

We're busy, Nubby and Laney, they're best friends, the only competition, maybe Rita, they have a small circle. Oh, it's been two years and a couple of weeks since Debbie came into our lives. Lou had always been a savior. I wasn't really. but we wanted to support the community, we decided to start our own non-profit, educate warriors about rescue, we talked about it a little bit and everything went well and then I was at work, I came home and she said it was okay , we have registered as a non-profit organization and I am very sweet and he is always well that is one of the most important things that is one of the most important things that you know my

heart

loves him it is rewarding to be a non-profit organization profit when we teach in schools if you can teach them compassion at a young age it will go a long way.

He's still a dog, but he's different. Can pets be different? Yes, the highlight of Nobby's life is meeting new

kids

. She forgets that she is in her wheels and she will run to every child she wants. to make sure you know all the puppies are here in texas there's just not enough spaying and neutering it's creating an overpopulation oh my gosh the rescue we rescued a pregnant mom that was on the street and she gave birth and now we have six puppies Looking for their adoptive homes, are you going to help these babies? Every time a rescue comes to the house, Maggie says, Why did you drag something else home?

The rest are always excited. I'm not sure she's not a mom. She had never seen Mac like this. Before she's the boss, she's the boss, I'm the grumpy one, can you hold this one too? I need to get the other one, hurry up, you come, he comes, come on, come here, okay, we have to get their things ready, oh, you already have two. nubby is a dog and no matter how many legs he has where he is he's just happy, nubby doesn't give up so I mean he could but that's not what nubby does he gives hope to a lot of people just because you have a difference in a limb or simply because you are different, period, it does not mean that you do not have a quality of life and he teaches you that every day
