Puppy born without foot to get bionic implant [View all]
A dog born without a foot will soon become "the world's smallest bionic pet" after a procedure to fit the pooch with a prosthetic, titanium foot is completed.
The chihuahua—named "Peggy Leg"—was adopted from a shelter in Roswell, N.M., by a local chihuahua rescue group.
"When we were told about this program it was unbelievable," Mary Jewell of Enchantment Chihuahua Rescue told New Mexico's KOAT-TV. "It was like, 'Oh my gosh, she is going to be a bionic dog, with a bionic leg.'"
