Three Legged German Shepherd Plays at Burlington Dog Park

Jerry the three-legged wonder dog shepherds a plastic buoy around the dog park in Burlington Vermont. It reminded him of his favorite red plastic ball back home -- look for his Greatest Hits movie to see how he would kick it with his back legs.

I know you posted this video a long time ago, but I appreciate it as my GSD is facing amputation of one of her front legs after being hit by a semi truck last week. Thanks for posting what a GSD can do with just 3 legs

@marcjoster Sorry to hear about your pup. Please visit the TRIPAWDS (dot-com) blogs and discussion forums for much more inspiration and lots of recovery and care tips, advice and support.

Further to last - we hope to be able to do a chronicle of our pup - her development from 'day one' so to speak - so maybe people will appreciate these wonders more - and those that have 'less than perfect' pups will re-consider having them 'put down' before they have been able to get up!

Glad you like jerry's videos! Be sure to check out his TRIPAWDS website for much more information, health tips, videos, photos, resources and discussion forums all about cancer dogs and other canine amputees ... because all dogs are born with three legs and a spare! ;-) Thanks for the comment.

That's exactly why we set up the Tripawd blogs, where you can set up a free blog to share your three legged dog adventures. Just visit the TRIPAWDS website and click on "Sign Up" in the header. We look forward to hearing more!

Jerry got his three legs at birth, four really. Then he lost one last year during amputation surgery for osteosarcoma. Read all about this and other canine cancer suvivors at tripawds dot calm!

HI - WONDERFUL TO FIND THIS CLIP! I have just a grandpuppy born a fortnight ago with one front leg missing at the elbow. I am lucky - one of my previous' litter parents adpted the pup before even seeing her -mind made up on the way over when pup was not even a week old! We spent 4-5 hours that night looking for clips like this (to prove to partner away in army) that they are just as good - if not better in some ways! Thankyou for this clip!!!
