Despite suffering from degenerative myelopathy, a condition similar to ALS in humans that led to paralysis in Aidan’s hind legs, this Boston, Massachusetts-based Corgi’s love for bird-chasing is undeterred. His owner has found an innovative solution, acting as Aidan’s legs and allowing the dog to enjoy his favorite pastime.

A caption overlaid on the heartwarming clip reads: “POV: your dog became paralyzed but used to love chasing birds so now you are his legs.” The video has since amassed over 1.7 million likes on TikTok, with viewers commending the owner’s dedication.

A follow-up video reveals Aidan’s regimen for managing his condition, which includes physical therapy every other week and the use of a dog wheelchair for walks.
