A miracle dog which was left paralysed after being hit by a lorry has astounded vets to make a full recovery in just weeks - with the help of his own set of wheels.

Caeser, an American Bulldog, was left with horrific injuries after being mown down by a HGV when he was spooked by another dog and darted into a busy road.

His devastated owners were told he was unlikely to survive because he was left paralysed in his front legs and left with little movement in his back ones.

The six-year-old pooch underwent a life-saving operation at Willows Veterinary Centre and Referral Service in Solihull, West Mids.

And just eight days after surgery, Caesar was incredibly able to walk again without any support.

Amazing video footage shows Caesar being helped back to his feet by a team of veterinary staff using a special hoist on wheels.

Three months on, the lucky mutt has defied the odds to make a full recovery and is back running around his favourite field following his brush with death.

The vets has now described Caesar as the 'most determined dog they have ever seen' after seeing his willpower to get back on his paws.

Owner Nigel Smith, of Worcester, said: “My wife was with Caesar when it happened, and she was left distraught by it for a long time."
