Though partially paralyzed, Lufy’s charm, resilience, and lovable personality have captured the attention of thousands—thanks to a heartwarming photoshoot that went viral.

Lufy wasn’t always paralyzed. According to the rescue, he was a normal, happy puppy until he started stumbling at around four months old. His condition rapidly progressed, and within a few months, he could no longer use his hind legs, dragging them behind him. Along with his mobility challenges, Lufy developed a constant snorting sound when he breathed.

Despite these difficulties, Lufy remains as sweet and social as ever.

“He’s very quick to form friendships with other dogs, regardless of their energy level, and shows a lot of patience,” said the rescue.
