00:00She only has two legs, but nothing can stop her.
00:03Just watching her run with this big smile on her face is the cutest thing ever.
00:09Hi.
00:11When I adopted Dixie, she had really big wounds from dragging her legs around.
00:16I believe that's how she was born.
00:18And although she couldn't feel them, these legs were just dead weight.
00:22We did try hydrotherapy, but honestly, Dixie hates it.
00:27So we stopped that.
00:28Yes, yes.
00:30Good girl!
00:30Good girl!
00:32She used her wheelchair, but she didn't seem like she really ever loved it.
00:36She just wanted to be free.
00:39About a year after, the wounds had turned into bone infections.
00:43So I decided to do the surgery.
00:46After the surgery, the coolest thing is she learned how to hop up a step.
00:51Come on.
00:54Good girl!
00:56That was something she worked really hard at it.
00:58and I couldn't help.
00:58Come here!
00:59She wanted to do it herself without any of my help.
01:02Yay!
01:04I was so proud of her because I knew it was the goal she accomplished herself.
01:08You're a good girl.
01:09I knew at that moment that I made the right decision, and it was like a weight lifted off of not only Dixie, but also me.
01:19She's happier than she's ever been because she's independent.
01:22It's all vegan friends.
01:24So cool!
01:24Yay!
01:25So cool!
01:26Bye!
01:27Bye!
01:35Bye!
01:36Bye!
01:37Bye!
01:38Bye-bye for fun!
01:38Bye!
01:38Bye!
