A super cute puppy hasn’t let being born with deformed front paws get in the way – by bounding around like a T-REX.

Adorable Reuben is forced to get around by standing on his back legs and running around like a dinosaur.

He holds his deformed front paw like a tyrannosaurus rex forelimb, and using his tail for balance.

The happy pooch was rescued by British charity Safe Rescue for Dogs from a certain death in the same Eastern European village.

Charity worker, Zoe Hare, 42, said: “Ruben knows no different and doesn’t understand there is anything wrong with him.

“He throws himself into everything with the same gusto as puppies with four legs.”
SWNS_DINO_DOG_019Ruben gets about by stomping around like a dinosaur and bounding about – to the delight and confusion of passers-by.

Owner Karen Stanway, 31, adopted the happy pooch from and is hoping a pair of wheels will give him a renewed lease of life.

The mum-of-one, who worked as a veterinary nurse before taking time off to look after her daughter, fell in love with seven-month-old Reuben before she had even met him.

The two-legged puppy was saved from Romania by charity, Safe Rescue, and posted an ad to find him a new home.

She said: “He is so adorable, we only got him last Saturday and he fits in so well.

“He plays with my other dog, Ally, and goes for walks despite his disability.”

SWNS_DINO_DOG_009Karen explained that despite his bubbly personality she regularly gets strange looks from passers-by.

She said: “When we take him out, people give us dirty looks sometimes.

“I’ve heard someone mutter under their break that he should have been put to sleep but he’s such a happy dog and he doesn’t know there is anything wrong with him.”

Karen added that despite his enthusiasm for life, Ruben, a Jack Russell Collie cross quickly tires from the extra energy exerted from using only his back legs.

She said: “It was a few weeks between the times that I enquired about him and actually got him so I sat down to prepare ramps, gates and came up with as many ideas as possible to improve his life.

“He’s only a baby and he is desperate to run around, so a set of wheels is the best option for now.”

Karen said that the puppy is “completely devoted” to her five-year-old daughter, Penny.

She has set up a crowdfunding page to help with donations for his wheels, but is only asking for £500 from strangers.

She added: “We are desperate to see him have the freedom he deserves – he is such a special and happy boy and for all he’s been through deserves this chance.”
