If you're ever in need of inspiration, look no further than all the amazing dogs of the world who've overcome obstacles with light, positivity, and a whole lot of love.

One of these incredible pups isn't disabled—he's differently abled, and makes the paralyzed life on wheels look effortless. The Treeing Walker Coonhound named Lieutenant Dan not only serves as the best big brother to foster dogs in need, but this Hero Dog Awards finalist's infectious joy and hopeful spirit will leave you feeling like you can do hard things, too.

This two-legged therapy dog from New Richmond has earned his spot as an America’s Top 5 Hero Dog Awards finalist by the American Humane Society, and once you hear his story, you'll understand why.

Born the runt of the litter with severely deformed back legs and tail, Lieutenant Dan had surgery at 6 months old and got right back to running the very next day! He learned to walk on his two front legs—and eventually got his wheelchair—determined to move forward no matter the challenge.

The certified therapy pup spends his time bringing smiles to everyone he meets, and there's no denying how much joy he radiates—he truly is a gift. As one of the Hero Dog Award finalists, Lieutenant Dan is showing the world how to embrace their differences.
