Rescue Dog Who Lost Back Paws Adopted By Detective With Prosthetic Leg

A dog in California had to have her back paws amputated because her previous owner wrapped her feet up too tightly to prevent scratching, but she’s found her ideal owner now.

Chloe the Shih Tzu was brought in to the San Diego Humane Society, which did the surgery and nursed her back to health.

Once she was on the road to recovery, she received a custom prosthetic and orthopedic slippers for her back paws. And then Chloe was rescued by someone who knows exactly how to care for her needs - San Diego Police Department Detective Chappie Hunter. He lost one of his legs after an accident and now has a prosthetic of his own.

His family fostered Chloe over the summer to help her adjust to her prosthetics in a home environment. And she was such a great fit for their family, they decided to make it official and she now has her forever home.
