Many of you have pointed out that Derby's prosthetics seem too low. We started this way to give him a chance to get used to his new legs. But with 3D printing it's easy to iterate design, so he is being fitted with progressively longer legs until he reaches his optimal height. Work is ongoing and we are about to 3D print the 4th version of his prosthetics.
nice to hear :) it was my first thought as well
Would love an update if possible when he is at optimal height
His back will probably never be ready for something higher...
Great job!! I'm glad that dogs are being treated like they should.
Yeah, the current height seems bad for his vertebrae as it makes his backbone lying in improper position and I'm really worried about that. So, I thought of complaining about it as well. Knowing that he has to adjust to it, but to run and walk a long way in that angle isn't good for his bones, hope you will adjust it soon.
this is the reason why the link from ifls wasnt enough for me, i also wanted to say that it seems a little low but when i read this comment it made me really happy
there are still awesome ppl in the world
I cried these are the good people I want in this world
I cried too when I'm older will help and save animals I see that need help
+Naked Snake moron.
Lily. Equestrian what are prosthetics?
Lily. Navy yeah well maybe they're just fixated on this one doggo and they don't really practice altruism. they probably buy meat on regular basis etc
Lily_ Daisy well this world doesn't go by what you want
This makes me so happy
I can't stop crying; so wonderful to see this dog running along with his friends…..thanks to researchers, problem solvers, and those who love to help others!!
This is absolutely incredible, its people like you that are making these seemingly small but amazing differences to lives that other people would discard. You make the world a better place.
Dogs arent people.
Check Mate.
Check Mate
It must be hard to read and accurately understand everything when you are merely looking for a reason to express your gimmicky little name there. A quick reread of the sentence would probably have allowed even your barely functioning brain cells to comprehend she was referring to the PEOPLE who dumped the dog at the shelter in the first place due to Derby's handicaps and not the DOG in this case, even though the DOG was the one affected most by this. I read it to understand the OP meant nothing more than the people who clean up others' messes are the ones making the world a better place. Oh, and not to be a stickler for semantics here, but in the case of your username, checkmate is one word.
So...
Checkmate.
Does no one understand sarcasm
Nahodakk oh and where did you write it from? The electronic device you hand crafted and built from scratch? Be relevant, i was talking about the people at the 3D printing company and the dog.
Becky 'Meg' She blows her replies out of her arse.
Just look at that wagging tail and the "smile" on his face! May he live a long life. Bless you!
Fabulous!! Derby is a lucky dog to have such dedicated and loving humans in his life!
This is the very definision (at least for me) of being human. To help someone who can't help themselfs and to enable others both humans and animals to live life to the fullest and just to see them be happy is reward enough.
My dog has been tortured on the streets as a puppy and the part of his front leg been cut off. We took him home from the vet which saved his life when he was 6 month. We're keep trying to help him by putting a special shoes and bandaging his leg for every walk but it's not a perfect solution cause he's getting bigger and keep traumatizing his leg by running so there're still some blood after almost every walk. Also his spine is also bothering him cause one leg is shorter than another. This story give me hope that i can actually make much more for him in the near future. I just wish we can find something like that in Russia cause it's so freaking expensive to take him abroad....
Folletto holy shit
You are brave and god send. Yohu will find the way... God bless you
Folletto karma will get these monsters if it hasn't already.
Folletto there is a cheaper route instead of going abroad: buy a 3d printer and have someone design a similar prosthetic Or get the schematics and alter them yourself.
The poor puppy. ;-; I'm so glad he has a wonderful owner like you to help him.
Who the fuck dislikes a video like this?
a bitch

YOU SUCK!!!!! I AM CANADIAN AND I HAVE 1 DOG, 1 CAT, 1 BIRD, AND 1 HAMSTER!!! I HAVE RESCUED ANIMALS AND I AM NOT EVEN A TEENAGER!!!!! DONT SAY CANADIANS HATE ANIMALS!!!! IF IT WERENT FOR ME, THERE WOULD BE 3 LESS DOGS ON THIS PLANET TODAY!!!!!!!! I SAVED THEM, ON MY OWN!!!!!!!!!!!! WITH NO HELP FROM ANYONE..... CHECK YOUR FACTS!!!! YOU SUCK

I'm so happy for the dog! I hope there is a special place in heaven for the lady who adopted her...

I cried of tears of joy 😢 I'm so happy for this dog I hope this would be continued to produce for all the other dogs in the world to feel what's it's like to move like all the other doggies!
Really an amazing story.
Things like this, 3D printed exoskeletons and braces, etc, really impress me. 3D printing is turning out to be the first step on the road to a "fabber" like you'd see in a science fiction movie.
This made me cry, I showed it to all my friends and they had the same reaction...you guys are heros.😃
Very impressive. I have so much respect for people that help animals in need. Kudos.
I can only assume (based on extensive experience) that people who disliked this video are those assholes who would say "You worry about a stupid dog, while there are children starving out there" - people who never in their entire lives moved their fat asses from their chairs to do anything for anyone or anything around them, but are very good at organising other people's priorities and feel very entitled to enforce their opinion upon the world they are not even a part of. You know the type.
I love dog but that make me 😭😭 and 4 people I my class like cat but I give no fuck at cat
AMAZING! BLESS HIS HEART! Thank you for making him legs so he run like the wind! ❤
He looks so happy.
i dont know who you are, but i will find you and i will hug you
That is truly amazing. Kudos to the technicians who developed this design. Can’t get much better than to see the joy you have brought into Derby’s life. Godks blessings on all of you, especially Derby’s fur-parents.
I don't get how people could not like this story. These are cold, heartless people with no empathy for man's best friend in need. I am sooo, glad that 3D Systems stepped up thanks to Tara Andersons caring. H/T to Sherry & Dom Portanova for being able to care so much for a dog that would have otherwise become a statistic.
I know this isn't the only dog ever to be in this situation. I'm sure there are hundreds, if not thousands, just like him. But, it is heartwarming nonetheless.
This is amazing! I'm so glad I saw it. It brought tears of joy to my eyes. Ty

Exactly
I'm crying. What a beautiful dog, it's wonderful what you've done for him! You can just see how happy he is.
What a godsend! I mean the people and the prosthetics! You gave this dog a real life where he can be a dog and participate in life. God bless you ALL!
It is really beautiful to watch creative people working together!
Great attitude. Congratulations and thanks for helping Derby ;)
I have been following derbys story and I smile every time ❤
Mooshoom خ٩ك
It makes me smile to see the difference in this dogs life. You are the kindest people!
YOU ARE AN AMAZING HUMAN BEING! That pooch is so blessed to have you as his person. I totally get the progressive height, but the smile on his face with even the first level, I'm speechless and a little teary. Cheers to you!
What? I'm not crying, it's just because I finished cutting some onions.
You are awesome. Thank you for helping the dog.
Im a old softy when it comes to animals so this really touched my sentimental side. Animals bring such a ray of happiness. This dog seems so happy with its wonderful new owner and i bet it brings her such happiness as well. I have a 9 year old dog and i love how she wags her tail and acts like a puppy first thing in the morning. You can't put a price on such love and loyalty
I have been following 3D printing for the last 3 years and was so impressed as the applications of this process are beginning to make a big difference in the animal world. Good job and this is just the start. This will really make a difference to the handicapped.
I have never seen this level of prosthetic with a dog before. it usually takes the form of wheels. etc.
Yeah.
omg. the feels.
Verified and no comments from 7 years ago? Dang.
Awwww, bless his sweet heart, you can plainly see how much happier he is. ❤
Great job guys.
That is just SO super awesome!!! Giving a doggo legs to run on, which gave him a life is just such an important thing to do!! And seeing the joy on that SWEET dog's face, because he has been enabled to be a NORMAL DOG!!!! You guys are my heroes!!!!! ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉👍👍👍👍🐾🐾🐾🐾
Straordinario, sono commosso - Extraordinary, very moved.
Technology is taking a turn for the best. Keep on little Derby.
That is freaking AWESOME!!! I have never cried so many tears of pure joy to see this!!! You will all be blessed in so many ways for this, and for the many great things you WILL DO !!!
This is just so amazing. God bless all of you. The dog's mobility went from almost non-existent to all it was meant to be... and that all thanks to people that cared... and, of course, to 3D printing! That's precisely why I haven't given up on my 3D printing stocks yet despite the losses I've had w/ it. Big thank you to you for your kindness, and to all the good people that were involved in helping that awesome animal. He looked happy without it but now he looks thrilled to be able to sprint like a marathoner along w/ his loving humans.
thanks for helping this dog out! :).
peace from NZ.
Wow, that's amazing! I love 3d printers. :D
Awwww that's so nice of her and I love you Danica your awesome !
thanks! :)
Your welcome
***** Happy Holidays, you little jerk. :)
That is rude
I'm literally crying tears of joy right now :) So happy for this dog! Guys you do amazing job!
amazing, blows my mind EVERY time I see this video!!! Really gives one hope for the future of soooo many dogs and humans alike. Can't wait too see what Derby does when he is running at full height! :)
WELL DONE!!!! congrats Derby
how do 497 people dislike this?
Attention
***** Shut yourself up, elderscolls fandom.
***** I don't even watch it, I just found this picture on the internet, tithead.

***** Oh, ok. Never liked you anyways ;)
Those work amazingly well. Thank you for inventing them.
Derby is so happy when he runs.
You know, the best thing you can do when you see these videos and feel sad or cry tears of joy is love and care for an animal whenever you can.
Beautiful
That who disliked this video, don't have soul. That dog is so cute and beautiful 😊 And Tara and her friends are ameizing peapole. P.S. Sorry for a mistakes. I don't speak English very well.
This made my day. I believe one of the things that makes dogs so special is that they make it easy for humans to do unselfish, kind actions. Once that happens its easier to be unselfish towards everything and everyone.
thank you to all that helped derby.
Grandissima cosa quando la tecnologia viene applicata in questo modo.
Yay he can walk I'm happy
That's amazing!!!! What a lucky dog indeed!!! You blessed him sooo much with those prosthetics!!! He's so happy to run. It was in him to do it...& like magic...you got him there!!!
Derby is officially the coolest dog of all time. His swag level, as the kids say, is on infinite. These 3D printers are something else.
they should stop sharing the 3d printed gun videos, and focus on things like this!
D4N1L01994 VERY true!
D4N1L01994 Why not both?
+D4N1L01994 What the fuck is a gun footage?
You can print anything your pretty little mind thinks of so don't be a hater cause your anti-gun... I can print you a baby bottle
Only dumbass liberals think you can print out rocket launchers and machine guns right out of the printer
He's so cute
Just breath-taking! So marvelous to see Derby running, running! Enjoying himself and flying along! Marvelous! Thank you, folks at 3D Systems! ❤️❤️
Seeing that people work to help animals renews my faith in humanity! THANK you for this work and for this video. It's so inspiring.
I feel like if he got the bottom half of his front legs cut off and got new prosthetics, in the correct lenght this time, it would probably be easier for him to run more upright in a more correct position for him. Also I don't think it's a good idea to let him run that far every day with the posture he has now. He might get back problems later on. Make longer prosthetics maybe with a spring in them to compensate for the missing joints.
+scarystuff1970 True, I was thinking the same thing after I saw the dog running
Exactly i hope they plan on further design. Otherwise i guarentee hed be better off in the long run (no pun intended) physcial health wise without them...
+scarystuff1970 Did you not read the first comment, by 3D Systems?
+Matt John It is explained in the video, as well as in the original post.
Hes lucky he got prosthetics at all. He will be fine. Longer prosthetics might actually hurt him since his body was already so low to the ground. A mid point is needed and later on they "might" move to a high point.It costs alot of money to get them and most disabled dogs have wheel chairs compared to this.
Impressive.
This is such a heart-warming story. Thank you for the work that you do.
Omg, he's such a beauty!! I LOVE HIM. And I love everyone on earth who helps animals. Thank you! 💜
this is so much exaiting! i had a husky dog so i like it
Wow, made my day...awesome technology that is a "Game Changer" thanks for such a great video.
With love,
The Duchess
Incredible !!!
AWESOME VIDEO!!! 3D Printing is awesome and can change the world!!! Brought tears to my eyes seeing Derby run for the first time.
I feel so happy for Derby! Really touching to know that there are good people out in the world.
Thank U for helping this lovable dog. You've improved his life 1,000,000X. But just in case of emergency - If he ever falls into water, he won't be able to doggie paddle, would he? Would the hollow part serve as scoops? If not, maybe he'll need a flotation vest and/or flotation bubbles inside the prosthetic.
Jeffrey Tong he was first deformed and probably/ maybe can't doggie paddle?either way, you raised a good point out of curiosity I hope the makers of the prosthetics look into this, or perhaps they did in the beginning.
Hello 3D Systems! I'm a vet from Portugal and we have a dog (Pincher) than weighs 0.7Kg and has a very similar malformation as Derby. We only have access here in Portugal to wheel chairs but because of his small weight and also because he can move both limbs the chair is not really a good option. We found here where we can print in 3D but no one that can help us with the design. Can you help us? I have videos and measurements of Figo (it's his name). Hope you can help us (he has been adopted from our clinic and we really want him to have a healthy life for as long as he can and for that we have to help his forelimbs to preserve his spine and hindlimb). Sorry for such a long comment and god bless you for helping Derby.
+ZenVeterinaria ZenVeteterinaria www.3dsystems.com/contact
ZENVET Veterinaria Integrativa did you ever get the help Figo needed?
Such a sweet little guy! Kudos to all those involved in bringing joy to such a wonderful little soul!
You are all amazing!
Derby looks very happy.
This technology will help others in need.
Your dog has a lot of energy.
Good
needs to be a bit higher on the from. so the dog back is more straight not bend down.
I know that, but in the video they said they were starting short so that they wouldn't make a drastic change and injure poorly-developed muscles.
+Howling Hills yes, I sow it after I posted.
+RazerOfPain they made an updated version and he's what his normal height would be and sits normally, they posted a video of it :)
+Will O'Donnell Just sow it thanks.
+LetsPlayWiki you saw it.
great design and build and just love the joy on the lovely dogs face while running
thankyou THANKyou
You've lifted a dark cloud I've not been able to see through for a while, where it comes to humanity. Thankyou for your inspiring approach, to this little blessing you've dedicated so much thought, care and love to.
God bless Derby, and everyone involved in the video esp those doctors. 😇😇😇
So amazing. Such happiness! :) I wonder if they were a bit higher up he would even be better at running?
I agree, but they were starting short so not to put strain on the little guy. :)
what a beautiful thing you have done taking him in and giving him a Life where he enjoys !
That used to be my family's dog. I am from Alabama. He was never mistreated. We just wanted to give him to someone who could take care of him better and help him out. Plus he needed more attention than we could give him. He was sent to peace and paws by us. I'm happy for him and glad to see him running around and having fun!
This is great. I wonder why the prosthetics are made so that the dog's front end is so low to the ground. Looks like they could have made his pros legs as long as the back. Seems like he will develop back issues.
Xena Jada he will develope back issues but without the prosthetics his outcome is obvious. Imsure that if the prosthetics were longer the angle of his back will be opposite of how he has grown. That will hurt and change a little over time- but he has his permanent skeletal shape. The prosthetics are a gift that weren'tjust thrown on, he's been measured in different ways to account for stress and as his shape and stance changes his gift will be changed to accomadate. This is awesome and after seeing this, lets just say I'll never forget it.
+Jeff L this is late but they're gradually going to do larger ones so he can get used to them. They will eventually be large enough that they are level with his back legs
Dong Master hie, never to late for this topic. I have thought about the entire issue with the lengthening of the prosthetics. I don't recall how long doggie has been wearing them, and that makes a difference but if they (gradually increase the length) obviously it will be so much easier, and less painful. The pain was what I was concerned with actually, because he will adapt either way. If they went too long, - too soon for him. The professionals handling it know this of course, and my prayers are for the very best. I am an avid animal lover. Thanks for the return comment- peace...
I read Derpy at first
Who would NOT cry? That is so great. God bless you for enhancing Derby’s quality of life!
What a beautiful, wonderful character this dog has. What a great mom he's got now.
I must say what an inspiring tale. As a moderator over at /r/dungeonsanddragons, I too create tales of fiction full of intriguing qualities. Let me share a snippet with you:
"Neria Zhantos, Altmer Battle Mage, has come across a stranger while clearing out bandits from Helgen. It becomes quickly apparent that he is not of Tamriel. Who is this strange wanderer? What mysterious force has seen him taken from his home world and thrown into Nirn? Whatever the answers, one thing is certain. He has seen more than she could ever imagine."
As you can see, I am both a master wordsmith and a master blacksmith. If you require said tale to be provided in written form, I'd be happy to provide my services in exchange for one pound of Platinum.
Yours in friendship.

I feel happy for the dog, but specially for the technology available now and its application.
#Prostetics #3DPrinting
That´s why I admire so much dogs. Unlike humans, they have no time for self pity!
*Science is truly amazing!!!*
Self pity, that should be a sin. It is insulting.
Ral Crux Yes, you need an agressive type.
this was one of the most heart warming videos 🥰🥲 seeing him run at the end was like a breath of fresh air
Incredible. What a fantastic improvement in this dog's life. Thanks to everyone that helped make this happen!!
OMG i thnk i am about to cry
TomBoy 1095 why?
It looks his spine will get rekt in couple of years... Why not make Prosthetics that make him normal posture....?
They mentioned they started his prosthetic legs off quite low, so it was similar to the already low posture he tries to move at. I imagine they'll raise them over time as he gets used to them.
I was literally just going on comment the same thing. He'll most definitely develop spinal injuries in the long run. The prosthetic themselves are amazing, but maybe make them equal to his natural height.
It said in the video that they started him out lower so it was not a drastic change at first. With this technology they can increase the height s the dog adjusts by making the change on the computer and "printing" a new set to increase the height.
i think they really did a lot of thinking and probably work with a doc too
Hatoke45 I rly doubt his body ever got used to the low posture. It's just not natural. And to make new pair of the prosthetics prob isn't cheap!!!
Seriously the most adorable and magical thing I've ever seen.
Thats amazing. Whats more amazing is how easily adjusted he got to the prosthetics.
They should stop sharing the 3d gun footages, and focus on things like this!
Thank you!
What type of dog is he? He is very beautiful.
+ParkPlays I'm guessing Siberian Husky
+ParkPlays Id say malamute runt or husky x malamute
Yep, this is an example of our best selves, and the sweet souls who bring it out in us. Rock on Derby.xx
I've followed Derby for so long..I'm sooo happy for him I'm crying such a sweet Derby.
These prosthetics are amazing! I can't believe how well the dog takes to them! Beautiful! The only problem is that I refuse to buy the bullsh$% lies about them being made by an intelligent designer or creator. An intelligent designer or creator is not necessary for those prosthetics. Those prosthetics arose through the nature selecting arbitrary self-organized molecules to randomly form a number of different polymers and plastics. The prosthetics only appear to be perfectly fit in form and function to the dog but this is only an illusion. Natural selection creates that illusion.
The existence of gravity and the laws of science are sufficient to explain how those prosthetics came about. No designers are necessary. In fact, invoking a designer or intelligent designer to explain the origin of these dog prosthetics would require blind faith and a rejection of science. Someone who invoked a designer/creator for these dog prosthetics are doing so strictly out of a fear of dying. Such people would be irrational and have no evidence on which to base their claims.
All we need to explain the dog prosthetics appearing on their own and without the help or intervention by an intelligent designer/creator is to show the progression of the fossil record of that 3-D printer. I can show you a number of printers, starting with early primitive printers and clearly showing the addition of features, traits, and increased efficiency and capability leading up to the current 3-D printer.
So, I have DEBUNKED the notion in this video that these dog prosthetics were made by an intelligent designer/creator. As proof, I have presented my mechanism and examples of printers going from basic to advanced showing the natural procession of evolution of printers. I have shown how invoking an intelligent designer/creator is superstitious, irrational, unscientific, foolish, and based in fearmongering. The people who claim that a designer/creator is responsible for these dog prosthetics need to be removed from society. They are the sole source of all the problems in this world. Such people prevent science from being done and try to replace REAL SCIENCE with their primitive notions of creators and designers.
The Channel of Stuff No, I am not mentally challenged. No creator or designer is needed for that dog's prosthetics. We do not need to invoke a creator or designer. That dog's prosthetics evolved naturally and I have printers showing the natural gradual evolution from simple to the complex 3D printer. If you claim that this dog's prosthetics needed a designer or creator, you are pathetic and reject all science.
FACTvsEVOLUTION You are an idiot. Dave is a creationist, using sarcasm to point out what he believes to be the flaws of evolution. The man is on your side, but your religious brainwashing has made you too blind to recognize what is blatantly obvious. I take pity on your soul, you poor, hell-bound creature.
Here we see the super-atheist in his natural habitat.He is very similar in appearance to the stupid creationist who doesn't know what logic is, although this is a super atheist due to the distinctive lack of sarcastic capitals.
RunicFX The fact that you couldn't see the sarcasm is astounding. Look at his profile picture. He's obviously attempting to satirize evolutionists' (logical and scientifically correct) belief, even though the creation of the universe and the creation of this dog's prosthetic limbs are completely different. I bet he thinks he was being clever, too.
*****
Don't get into a evolution vs.creation just marvel at this dog's supposed joy at running, something some of us seem to miss the small things.
I will not cry. I will not cry. I will not fucki *sob*
I like that they actually tried to help him instead of just putting him down immediately
this is literally the cutest thing ever😭💓
