The 3D printing implant technology saved this dog’s life!

So happy for this beautiful fur baby…! ❤️

Bliss, a 2-year-old dog with a rare [br.ain tu.mor], was sent by her owner to a Texas [k.i.ll] shelter. Many people were moved by Bliss’ story, and Friends of Emma reached out to see if they could assist with hospice care for the dog.

Bliss is a gentle and cute dog, and the di.se.ase has caused her a lot of [pa.in] and [da.mage] both physically and mentally. Despite this, she is always smiling and optimistic about life, and she loves the people around her!
However, medical exams revealed that Bliss is a healthy young dog in every way and is not [neu.rolog.ically] affected by the condition.

Elizabeth Hart, the rescue’s founder, immediately contacted a veterinary oncology specialist in Ontario, Canada to see if Bliss could be saved. They determined that Bliss could have the tu.mor re.mo.ved and a 33-printed porous polyethylene implant manufactured in Australia replaced part of her skull and facial bones.

This is an unexpected blessing for this po.or dog!

Surgeons and implant manufacturers collaborated to design the ideal custom implant for Bliss. The operation is scheduled for mid-June. Hopefully, the surgery will be a great success.
It is truly amazing how the entire world came together to help save this puppy!
