Abandoned With A Broken Back, Legs & Pelvis, She Learned To Walk On 2 Legs

Cora the miniature Poodle has come a long way since she was rescued and has made a remarkable recovery.

A few years ago, Cora was abandoned with two broken legs, a broken back, and a shattered pelvis. She was in such bad shape and her future looked very grim.

She was adopted by Zach Skow, who runs Marley’s Mutts Dog Rescue, and was given top-notch care.

Vets believe her injuries may have been from being hit by a car. They tried to save her legs with surgery, but unfortunately one of them had a bone infection and needed to be amputated. The other leg couldn’t be fixed either and also ended up being amputated.

After losing both of her hind legs, Cora was in total shock. She was unable to get around, and she was in excruciating pain.

Vets wanted to euthanize her, but Skow had faith that Cora could still lead a normal life. And she certainly agreed. As she healed, she learned how to adjust to life with two legs.

After surgery, Cora walked with the assistance of a cart, and within three months, she learned to hop around on two legs.

Cora, who Skow describes as “the friendliest, happiest dog I’ve ever met,” is now loving life and can get around just like any other dog.

If it weren’t for Skow having faith, she wouldn’t have gotten this beautiful second chance at life.
