LEGO Wheelchair Dog
Gracie was just a newborn puppy when her previous owners threw her away because she was missing her front legs as a result of a birth defect. Eventually, she was adopted by the Turley family – a family who runs their own shelter of their own – and the biggest concern was about her mobility. Growing puppies aren’t eligible for a wheelchair fitting, so Dylan, a 12-year-old volunteer, came up with a brilliant idea. He decided to use LEGO, which can easily be readjusted with flexibility as Gracie continued to grow.



Once Gracie grew old enough, she was able to get fitted with a standard wheelchair, and as a result of Dylan’s invention, she’s just like any other dog today. The permanent wheelchair can withstand all the daily rigors of a dog, including running, playing, and plenty of tail wagging.
