Adorable Pup With Swimmer's Syndrome Teaches Herself To Run!

Thanks to irresponsible breeding that sprouted up this breed became popular, there are a lot of German Shepherds that have all sorts of genetic problems.

It is a crying shame – especially since it means these poor sweethearts will often never find a home, since not everyone is willing or able to care for a pup with special needs.

Luckily, Starfish the German Shepherd puppy lucked out and found a forever home in spite of having Swimmer’s Syndrome! No one expected this puppy to be able to ever walk in her life – her disorder meant that she could only lie flat on the floor with her limbs all splayed out.

This pup, however, was a lot more optimistic than her family, and proved that she was a brave one – she would claw her way back to being able to walk, then run once more! It was like watching a miracle unfold over the years – all because this pup refused to listen that something was impossible!
