A 12-year-old kid builds a wheelchair from LEGO for an unwanted puppy so that it can enjoy life

A tiny two-legged puppy got a second chance at life because of the kindness of a 12-year-old boy. An ingenious child used pieces of LEGO to build a wheelchair for a hopeless dog so that it could run, and restored our faith in humanity with an inspiring story!

Life has been very unfair to Gracie, the charming one-year-old puppy. Born without forelegs due to a congenital defect, Gracie’s journey to this world was already impossible, but it got worse. Unfortunately, when she was only a few weeks old, her human parents abandoned her and the helpless puppy ended up in an orphanage.

Despite everything, little Gracie has overcome all obstacles. Always friendly and sweet, the charming puppy came right to the heart of the orphanage owners. The Turley Kennesaw family, Georgia, fell in love with Gracie from the moment they met her and decided to adopt her. These good people already knew how to treat a puppy with special needs, as they also adopted three-legged and paralyzed dogs. However, they were a little concerned about Gracie’s ability to walk safely.
The help came from a boy who volunteered for the shelter. As Grace was still growing up, she needed a wheelchair that could adapt. So, 12-year-old Dylan came up with a brilliant solution. He built a very special wheelchair from a LEGO constructor, and it surpassed all expectations. Now Gracie has a chance to enjoy life like a normal puppy!
“The first couple of times it took her a few minutes to understand it,” said Tammy Turley to THE DODO. “However, we ended up with small pieces of hot dog, and when she smelled them, she ran away”.
