Charles: This is our dog Boone.
[barking]
Tanya: He came from an abusive situation
and he lost his real legs.
He is funny at home.
In public, he is very calm
and good with children and adults.
[door creaks open]
So we brought Boone in to get a custom cart.

- Hey guys!
Tanya: Hi!
Derrick: Hey Boone!
You're super cool.
Hey!
How is he every day?
- He's happy; he's so happy at home.
Derrick: I know, buddy.
Well, basically, what we're gonna do,
is we're gonna put a little stocking over him,
and I'll be building his cart over the next few weeks.
You have the sweetest face ever.
Don't worry, we're not gonna hurt ya.
We're just gonna take a little cast.
All right, let me get all the materials together.
I gotta jump in the back and get a little stocking for ya.
I'm casting Boone's bottom half
because he's missing both his back legs.
And we're gonna make a really cool rear-limb cart,
something I've never designed before.
There's Boone.
Wanna see Boone, Henry?

Tanya: Boone!
[clicks tongue]
Derrick: You're excited to see Boone, too.
Cool.
All right.
Can I see ya Boone?
Can I see ya?
Aw, look at you, so trusting, so trusting.
Yep, there's one.
There.
Fashion statement, that looks good on ya, buddy.
All right, you ready?
Ready?
I'm gonna give you guys gloves too
'cause I'll let ya help.
Okay, let's work as a team on this one.
If this happened to a person,
they would never let me touch them
and manipulate them like this,
but he's livin' in the present.
He's not livin' in the past or future.
He's lettin' me do whatever he wants,
and he's just a happy dog, and all he knows is now.
♪♪
You can step right out of that.
Wanna see your dog-- dog body?
That's your body, Boone.
Boone, can you smell it?
Is it in there?
Is that your body?
[laughing] There you go.
Basically, it's just gonna be an abdominal support,
and we put some cool custom, maybe, shock wheels on there.
I know I can do tons of really cool things,
but I gotta-- I gotta bring it to life,
so um, Boone's the-- Boone's the one to do it on.
All right, Boone.
What do you think?
Are we gonna hook you up?
- Say thank you!
Derrick: Can you shake?
Can you shake a paw and we'll just do it?
All right, buddy.

Charles: We're just hopin' that the new cart
takes his mobility and happiness to the next level.

Hey guys!
Tanya: Hi!
Charles: Hey, how's it goin'?
Derrick: How're you doin'?
Check it out!
Look at what we got.
Hey Boone!
This is what I did, um.
We're gonna go step by step through the process,
and just make sure everything's safe,
functional for him.
Right Booney?
Huh?
Wanna give it a shot?
Let's get ya in there.
Charles: He looks scared now.
Derrick: Yeah.
Charles: Good boy, bud.
Derrick: Uh-huh.
Is that weird?
Drop you in, I made this a little wider
just to make it easier.
[squeak]
Slip in.
Mhm.
You good?
You okay?
Tail waggin'?
You all right?
Let's just see if he's strong enough.
I'm guessing he's gonna tip forward back a little bit,
but who knows?
This is a completely different feel for him,
so let's just-- let's just see!
You wanna walk?
Charles: Good boy.
Tanya: Come on, come on.
Derrick: [whispering] Let's see what you do.
[Tanya clapping]
Uh huh.
Tanya: [clicks tongue]
Derrick: [chuckling]
Yeah, this is gonna be a completely different feel.

Derrick: That's cool!
Tanya: Good boy!

Tanya: I'm impressed!

Tanya: There is not a day that doesn't go by
that I don't think where he was,
and how his life is now.
Derrick: You're doing so sweet!
Look at that.
That's pretty cool!
That's really cool.

[clicking tongue]
Charles: Come on, Boone.
Tanya: Come on!
- Come on!
- Good job!
Derrick: Good job, buddy.
Charles: As sad as it is what happened to him,
we know if it hadn't happened to him,
we wouldn't have been blessed with him.
He's changed our life in such a positive way.
Tanya: Good boy!
Good job!
