On this bone-chilling night, the newborn pup lay helplessly in the snow, hours from passing away.

A bulldog who has now been given the moniker Draper was born with only three functional front legs.

He was the only child in the litter to be born with a disability, so he was discarded and left to perish on the road.

The newborn puppy was soon covered in thick snow that had fallen from the bone-chilling night sky while it was frigid outside.

The puppy wondered why his owner let go of him so easy as he lay in the freezing snow.

Fortunately, a bystander noticed him and took him up and wrapped him in a blanket to keep him warm. The puppy wouldn’t have lived through the night if the good Samaritan hadn’t found him.

The local animal shelter was contacted right away for assistance, and it agreed to take the puppy.

They gave this beautiful kid the name “Draper” and immediately placed him in front of a heater for 24 hours to help control his body temperature. They changed his bandages every few hours and washed his front leg in the interim. Then Draper started his laser therapy.

He significantly improved and was now eating normally and getting good sleep. He is gaining new canine and feline companions in his household and is getting bigger and stronger every day. He might possibly be unique from other canines, but he isn’t going to allow his impairment stop him from moving forward!
