Despite his limitations, Bonsai the bulldog is overcoming his disabilities and continues to thrive. The dog is afflicted with caudal regression and sacrocaudal dysgenesis, likely combined with a variation of spina bifida.
After Bonsai had undergone a bilateral amputation of the rear legs similar, he began to heal as a critical care rescue resident of Friends Of Emma. While there, he became the best of friends with Ransom, a Pit bull who was born with short tendons and thrown in a Houston, TX trash can by his breeders when he was five-weeks-old. The two have been inseparable ever since the day they met.
Now that Bonsai is healed and doing well, his caretakers let him enjoy a little fun in the sun. They put him in a pet life jacket and let him play. And it seems Ransom has become Bonsai's personal lifeguard and swim coach.
In this adorable video, Bonsai starts in the swimming pool by himself before this loving Pit bull decides to join in the fun. How cute are these two pals?!
This just goes to prove that Pit bulls can make very sweet and loyal family dogs when raised in a loving home.
