The world's first bionic dog, a Belgian shepherd named Storm, now has a carbon fiber prosthetic paw. The dog underwent an amputation earlier this year to remove a tumor.

Watch out Joe will think he has an advantage over the other dogs. But I think this is good.

That's cool! Hopefully it will help with the further advancement of human prosthetics!

If it works it could help a lot more dogs or cats.
