- Derrick Campana isn't your typical...anything. He's an animal orthotist helping animals walk again - or walk for the first time - with artificial limbs. Subscribe: freeth.ink/ins...
In the old days when an animal had a broken leg, they would often be euthanized--and only if they were very lucky would they wind up with a leg cast.. Derrick Campana wants to put those days in the past. He's creating prosthetics and casts for all manner of animals--from cats to llamas, dogs to elephants, even cows and deer. He's been called the real life Dr. Doolittle--or even the 'bionic vet' for his work melding animal and machine. Freethink's Chase Pipkin went to his workspace to talk to him about his journey from creating prosthetics for humans to making them for pets and exotic animals. He discusses his creative ideas for keeping prosthetic limbs affordable how he gets animals from cats to elephants walking again by making each and individualized prosthesis.

What do you think the hardest animal to build a limb for would be?
hi
Hi, Elias
Hey again loved the story. The thing he is doing is awesome.
I think the hardest animal would have to be the kangaroo
@freethink could you maybe please give a shout-out to leisure boyzzz BTW love u
This man is an angel
True that
Protect this man at ALL cost. Bless you for all you do.
This is so beautiful, he's doing great work
I feel the same way about that
Could you maybe subscribe to a channel named leisure boyzzz
This made me cry with happiness. I saw other videos like this & thought it was wonderful, but that a lot of people wouldn't be able to afford it. Well I'm on disability & I could definitely save up for this. It might take a while, but would be so worth it! Thank you for doing this.
Hey man love your content. I didn't think that they made any prosthetic arms for animals . This is the way we must care for animals. We need to make sure that they aren't being left out. BTW cute dogs
Love you
Love you too! Leisure Boyzzz for life
beautiful, love it, I also have a little stray kitten, who lost just her right back foot when she was two weeks old. I suspect she was bitten by a rat. because when I dug her out from underneath a bush at that age the rest of her siblings were all lying there, dead and half-eaten. She was obviously alone and her mother was nowhere to be found. I took her in, cleaned her, fed her and now she is just over a year. The most beautiful and caring cat I named her CHARM. The back right foot is missing, and she hobbles along well but because the tibia is there the skin is tight over the bone and I can see it is painful when she accidentally bumps it on the floor. I made her a foot, to protect the leg/skin but the challenge is to get it tied to the upper leg. She simply licks it off or shakes it till it falls off. Can anybody help me to find a way of attaching the prosthetic foot to the tibia?
I'm getting a brace made by him for my dog! I can't wait!
Hey, how and where did you get it? Looking one for one lill rescued doggy. Thank you
How could someone dislike such a heart warming video about helping animals who are suffering?? Good thing its only one person..still bad tho...
I have seen other vet videos where they are doing cutting edge stuff like this and the human sector is getting ideas on what can work. It is so inspiring. One area is for spines. So neat.
Something in that video touched my heart, and I felt I had to share it with everyone!!!! I've seen videos of them before and after, and it makes my me cry every time....
I checked the prices of various pet braces/prosthetics he makes. They are actually quite reasonabe prices(so he is doing this more out of helping animals). I can guarantee, if these braces were made by a corporation and then fitted/put on in a medical facility owned by a health management corporation (like a lot of hospitals are now), the prices would easily be 10x to 50x higher for basically the same product (you have to pay the fat salaries/bonuses of all the executives that 'manage' these corporations).
I adore this guy. Squad goals.
man i love your work
So glad you enjoyed the video! Or if you're referring to Derrick, you can find him at animalorthocare.com :)
If T Rex were still alive, they would have fallen in love with him too !
Truely you are an angel.I wish i can bring my dog to you.she fell from 2nd floor and broke her front leg.After watching your video I think she can run like before.
I wish I could see Derek help Nubby the dog with no front legs!!
Has he tried making fins and or tails for sharks?
Angels don't always have wings.❤❤❤❤
This man is so special .
SADIE IS MY DOG!!! My brothers friend just watched this in class and told us about it! And mom is in this video too thats hilarious!!!
What a satisfying job , I’m jealous asf
I have a one year old Golden retriever. That had an accident when he was 6 weeks old at the breeders that left him with a missing front paw... I cant afford 1k for a prosthetic paw, although I believe he would ba a great candidate to receive one.... Where can I get financial help to get my dog Tipper a new front leg?
He should hook up with Dr. Noel Fitzpatrick, and his work at animal prosthetics, is absolutely amazing. Turning stumps into permanent pain free way of wearing their prosthetics.
Awesome ! thank you for this amazing work you do !
My tripod dog needs one of those.
Jaboo is such a cute name
I hope the days of euthanizing pets, if they end up with a broken limb becomes a thing of the past. Only becoming an option as a last resort or a pet is deem dangerous to be put back into society.
Where can I sigh in for a job like that ?
Hi! How can I get ahold of this man in regards to getting my bulldog a prosthetic leg made? He was born without part of his leg. We want him to have a fuller life with the advantage of four legs rather than to struggle with just 3 legs. He’s a happy puppy and you can’t really tell he’s missing a leg until he tries to do certain tasks. Please help me get in touch with this man!💜❤️

My poor French Bulldog Cali just had a spine injury this week. I am looking for something that will help her carry her back end. Rear legs are not working. Hopefully something like this will work!
È...etico : stesse possibilità di recupero per tutti gli esseri viventi ! Ora si comincia a ragionare ( ma il cammino è ancora tanto , tanto lungo !) ❤
Fantastic!
Thought from the thumbnail that the pitbull had half of his front leg missing 😂🤦🏽♂️
Hello, I have a Pitbull lab mix that was born with a deformed leg do you think you could assist him?

And what about two dog's legs on the same side (left)?
One of my neighbors has a three legged dog, and I’m literally looking at videos to get reference me turn on making a prosthetic leg using a 3-D printer. I will borrow just the leg part like the actual thing that attaches and I have to modify it because his leg and obviously it’s different than this other dogs leg in the way that it was removed episode has a little bit of a different shape. I’m not using this as moneymaking. I just want to make something for it so I would appreciate if I can borrow this as reference material because this is the first time I’m doing this.😂😂😅

Thank you you are amazing
Hiw do I get in contact with him please? My dog had his op two days ago
My friend( ie:dog) had to have his left back leg amputated high up at the top joint due to cancer - would it be possible to have a prosthesis or not as there is no stump as such.
Do you only make legs for animals that live in America.?
This man is German engineering but if German engineering was a human.
How can I get in contact with him my dog will need to get front paw amputated and I would like to get a prosthetic for him
How do we get in touch with Derek? I have a dog the recently had a leg removed. Would love to find something like this.
Don't. He is a crook. Check out orthopets. After he waisted our time and money we still have no product that was more than paid for, but the clinic in Denver has a better reputation and staff.
So amazing, dream job
