EasyBark
3D printed prosthetic for dogs

Most people tend to think that animals are like things. That they care for themselves. That they manage. After all, they are only like an animated machine with some special tricks like barking or purring. Not for me. I have always lived with animals around me – mostly cats. To me, they're like friends or family. So obviously I hate seeing them suffer. I invented a prosthetic for animals that can printed with a 3D printer. And know what? Animals love it. They do care. Sure, they can hop along on three legs, especially cats and dogs. But they'd rather use four of them. It is still in progress.
