Meet The Turtle Who Has A Prosthesis With Wheels

Meet the turtle who has a prosthesis with wheels

While the breakthrough stories always have a sad story behind them, we’d like to share it with you. They show us valuable lessons that help us face the hard blows of life, as happened to this turtle.

In this article, we’re going to talk about a turtle with a spirit of resilience. She faced a heavy bar, but had a happy ending, as far as the circumstances allowed her.

It is not very common for episodes of this type to happen. But for this turtle, whose name we don’t know, rats ate its front legs, leaving it helpless. Her owner spent more than 1,200 euros at the vet to try to alleviate her situation, but unfortunately it didn’t do much good.

Paws are essential for the turtle. Unlike other animals, she can’t do anything if she loses two of them. However, the son of Jude Ryder, the owner of this animal, had a brilliant idea.

He thought it wouldn’t be so difficult to make a kind of prosthesis with wheels so the little animal could walk. So he set to work and it wasn’t at all difficult to accomplish this task. In a short time, this turtle was able to enjoy a prosthesis that allows it to lead an averagely normal life.

These are two wheels that are placed and fixed above her hull. These make their owner now walk much faster than before. Can’t we say that someone is slower than a turtle?

We rejoice that this turtle can have a normal life. All this thanks to a great invention on the part of Jude’s son. But also the spirit of overcoming the little turtle and the love of its owner, who never gave up and was willing to do anything to help her, including spending a lot of money. Congratulations for the initiative!

Other pets with dentures

This turtle is not the only one who can achieve this thanks to the love of its owners: a prosthesis. Unfortunately, there were many pets that needed one and their owners did their best to provide it for them.

  • Doll. Doll is a little dog who lost three legs while one of the workers in a park in Venezuela was mowing the lawn. According to him, the machine strayed from him and he couldn’t prevent it from cutting off the dog’s paws. This poor animal was immobilized, because it was impossible to walk with only one leg. However, an animal advocate took charge of her, taking care of her and giving her what she needed. Doll received the prosthesis and although she hasn’t gone back to her old self, she can have a dignified life.
  • Turbo roo. This little Chihuahua was born without his two front paws, which is why he was abandoned. A center took care of him and got him a prosthesis for his paws, which helps him to walk, run and even jump.
  • Rexie. A kitten who had an accident that left her paralyzed on her hind legs. But, she was able to return to a normal life thanks to her owner’s efforts to find a suitable prosthesis for her. Rexie, today, is a kitten that can even run, thanks to her prostheses.

    These are just a few examples of animals that got a second chance. Their lives took a 180-degree turn, but they knew how to move forward thanks to their will to live, the help of those who love them and their spirit of overcoming difficulties. It goes without saying what valuable lessons we can draw from this.

    We are happy to tell stories that, although they start out in a sad way, end with a happy ending. Because happiness does not depend on what you have or what you are like, but on how you take advantage of your circumstances to be as happy as possible.
