'Roo' Needs a Home!!

A stray dog has become the star of the Western Riverside County Animal Shelter not just because of his sweet temperament, but because he only has two legs.

The 4-month-old pooch was dropped off Thursday and quickly earned the nickname "Roo," short for kangaroo.

The disabled dog moves around pretty well using his hind legs.

Roo was likely born with just two legs due to some sort of birth deformity, according to veterinarians.

Veterinarians say he's capable of living a long, healthy life if provided the proper care.

They're now searching for a loving home.
