Despite recently going blind and losing most of her teeth, this pup's spirit and adaptability are truly inspiring.

"She gets around surprisingly well," her owner, Diane, said. Even with her unique physical challenges, she continues to enjoy her meals, especially her favorite canned wet food, she added.
