Ronnie the crippled bulldog is saved by underwater therapy after bad diet

Ronnie (pictured) was so crippled when he was handed over to vets in Cardiff that he was close to being put down, but has now been nursed back to health and can move around again (left). The dog was rescued from an apparently abusive owner when he was four months old, and was completely unable to walk. The tendons in his front legs had not grown properly because of the terrible diet he was fed, and the American bulldog could only crawl around in constant pain.
