Nubby, a 7-year old chihuahua, was born without 2 front legs. But despite his condition, he’s received training as a therapy dog. Nubby helps patients in medical centers throughout the greater Phoenix area cope with their illnesses. You’ll see him being pushed in his little red carriage.

Nubby’s lack of front legs serves as a reminder to everyone that a disability doesn’t have to defeat you or make you feel challenged. Deidre Grafel, Nubby’s human companion, says that any dog can become a therapy dog. What is most needed for these therapy animals is proper training. There are a number of organization these days that can totally transform ordinary dogs.
