A dog named Monika, an amputee dog with four artificial limbs, walks outside the veterinarian clinic "Best" in the Siberian city of Novosibirsk, Russia. Volunteers rescued Monika after she was initially found without her paws in December 2020 by workers in the village of Plastunovskaya near Krasnodar. The operation to fit her with titanium prosthetic legs was conducted by vet Sergei Gorshkov, who is based in Novosibirsk and has fitted 37 animals with prosthetic limbs since 2015 but this was the first time he had tried the operation on a dog.
