Brownee recently explored cutting-edge technology, and he decided to visit 3D Pets to witness how they utilize advanced 3D printing technology to create custom prosthetic legs for animals.
During his recent visit, the New Jersey-based studio was working on a leg for a dog named Cleo. Cleo was found as a stray on the streets of Oklahoma.
Brownee spoke highly of Cleo, saying, “Cleo is an awesome dog. She’s one of the nicest dogs I’ve ever met. She was found in Petfinder after she spent some time as a stray in Oklahoma with injuries from unknown causes. Now hanging out with Cleo and just playing with her, you’d almost forget, like you wouldn’t even know that she’s missing a leg because she’s just running around, chasing stuff.”
However, many tripodal dogs face health issues as they grow older. As they age, their joints can be negatively impacted by the imbalance caused by the missing limb. They are more likely to develop arthritis and joint problems because of the constant compensation for the missing limb. That’s why getting a prosthetic becomes important. And that’s where 3D Pets comes in with their high-tech solution.
Watch their fascinating process of creating an artificial limb for Cleo in the video below.
