Have you ever been bullied?
I think we can all look back to a time that people werenāt very nice to us. But when people are being ugly to you for something that you have no control over, itās even more hurtful and devastating.
And thatās exactly what Luke, a fifteen year old boy, has endured his whole life. Luke suffers from psoriasis, a skin condition that causes flaking, inflammation and thick white, silvery or red patches. Heās been made fun of for looking different for as long as he can remember. He looks different and people have certainly let him know they know it.
So thatās where an adorable eight-week-old puppy who was born with six legs comes into the picture. She has an extra front leg on each side.
Lukeās mom, Lauren, says the puppy hops around on her back legs like a kangaroo, so theyāve named her Roo. They found her online when they went to meet her, she came ābounding outā of her pen, jumping on her hind legs, and Lauren says āit was love at first sightā for her son and his dog.
āWe absolutely love Roo to pieces,ā insists Lauren. āSheās just a normal dog to usājust with a couple of extra bits."
