LOGAN'S RUN! Heartwarming video shows pitbull walking again after losing hind legs due to abuse
A heart aching video that has surfaced online shows 'miracle dog' Logan walking on his front two legs. The pit bull terrier lost his rear legs due to past abuse. The clip shared on Tuesday, April 12, shows this adorable furry friend wagging his tail as he moves forward using just the strength of two legs.
The adorable boy is wobbly but it looks like the fighter in him has survived the emergency surgery that was performed on his limbs three weeks ago by the Animal Care and Control Team of Philadelphia in the US.

At that time, Logan was covered in blood and a wire was wrapped around his rear legs extremely tight. Pennsylvania Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (PSPCA) took over Logan's care and shared in detail how things went.

They shared fairly disturbing visuals of the abuse on their Twitter and said, "Both of his back legs were so tightly entwined in the tether's cord, the circulation had been cut off and they were dying." The care givers continued, "Our hospital veterinarians debrided his wounds and performed surgery but his injuries were too extensive. The surgery team did everything they could to save the right hind leg (the more injured) but it had been too damaged: it no longer had a pulse. The leg had to be amputated."
In the following clip, Logan is seen happily wagging his tail as he walks on half the strength, PSPCA said, "We couldn't save Logan's legs, but we could save his life. And that's what we did. And now we need another miracle, we need to find him a forever home. He's ready to be discharged from the hospital, and we'd like him to head into an adoptive or foster to adopt home."
