A Tragic Accident Leads to a Remarkable Journey
Four years ago, Tay-Tay the dog faced a tragic accident in which he lost part of his lower torso and both of his rear legs. This unfortunate incident left many uncertain about his ability to walk again.
Despite the challenges, Tay-Tay, now residing in an animal refuge in Chonburi, Thailand, has defied all expectations. Instead of accepting a wheelchair offered by the King of Thailand, Tay-Tay uses his two front legs to navigate his surroundings.
A Glimpse into Tay-Tay's Daily Life
In a video shared by Watchdog Thailand, Tay-Tay is seen confidently moving around the shelter on his two front legs. His determination has garnered attention, with the King of Thailand stepping in to support this resilient canine.
Royal Patronage and Unlikely Refusal
Upon seeing a picture of Tay-Tay on social media, King Maha Vajiralongkorn, also known as Rama X of Thailand, extended his support to the courageous dog. The King donated dog food and even sent a special canine wheelchair for Tay-Tay.
Despite the royal gesture, Tay-Tay refused to use the wheelchair. The King went a step further by sending a veterinary 'wheelchair expert' to assess Tay-Tay's needs. Surprisingly, the expert concluded that Tay-Tay's front legs were strong enough to support him.
Tay-Tay's current owner, Peerapha Suwanich, shares that she hasn't put him up for adoption as he appears happy in the shelter. Tay-Tay's joyful spirit and curiosity remain intact, as evidenced by his occasional attempts to explore beyond the shelter's boundaries.
