Robot Dog? Robot Dog.

Alright, I’m taking a break from pop culture related posts for a bit in order to spotlight Naki’o here, the world’s first dog with four prosthetic legs. Why? Because he’s awesome, that’s why. Shut up.

Naki’o lost all four legs to frostbite when he was a wee abandoned puppy. Fortunately, he was rescued, but as he grew, he had trouble supporting himself on mere stumps. A place named Orthopets like him so much that they gave Naki’o this full set of prothestics which he’s now using like a boss.

For another picture and a video of robo-Naki’o, head below. Ever see a YouTube video with ZERO dislikes? This is it.

Other than walking like he’s Charlie’s Kitten Mittens, he’s adapted pretty dang well:

I think I'm a part of the first generation of journalists to skip print media entirely, and I've learned a lot these last few years at Forbes. My work has appeared on TVOvermind, IGN, and most importantly, a segment on The Colbert Report at one point.

  2. “Ever see a YouTube video with ZERO dislikes?”
    A lot of thunderf00t’s videos have thousands of likes and zero dislikes. I don’t know why.

  3. Re the “0 dislikes” thing, it’s actually an ongoing YouTube glitch that just lists all of the videos’ ratings as “likes”.
