We can rebuild it ... we have the technology. Here's the story of Coal, an eight-and-a-half year old dog whose left paw was amputated because of cancer. Instead of putting him down, his owner Reg Walker spent a lot of money to fit him with a bionic leg:
A beloved pet bulldog has been fitted with a £10,000 bionic leg, which will help advance prosthetic techniques used to help bombing victims. [...]
The titanium alloy used mimics animal hide, allowing the skin and the bone from above to seal the metal implant below without it being rejected by the body.

10,000 pounds is a bit to much to spend on a dog. Human, sure. But dog?
Why is the dog named Coal, its white!
The story says that he is a hound! He looks more like a Dogo Argentino or an American Bulldog. Hound!?!?! Come on!
