Lily, a golden retriever puppy had her paw injured because of a complication during her birth. Wednesday, technicians fitted her for her very own prosthetic paw. Doctors hope to get the final prosthetic paw for Lily next week. That won't be all though. Lily will become a therapy dog, helping  people through rehab. She'll start her official training to become a therapy dog when she turns six months old. We hope Lily inspires you to not hold back and to go after your dreams!
