Watch the Amazing Story of a Disabled Boy and His Three-Legged Dog
Meet Owen and Haatchi, the stars of the most adorable short film you'll see all day. Eight-year-old Owen Hopkins has Schwartz-Jamel syndrome, which causes his muscles to be permanently tense. It's a painful condition, and when Owen grew old enough to be aware of his disability he became afraid to go outside. Then came Haatchi.
Haatchi, an Anatolian Shepherd, was struck by a train in 2012 and lost one of his legs. He was then adopted by Owen's family, and when dog met boy it was love at first sight. With Haatchi, Owen isn't afraid to go outside anymore and even meets new people. After watching the film about them, you'll want to be their friend, too.
