Canine Wheelchair
By Tony Stone
This is a well made and reasonably easy device to assemble and fit to your dog. It can improve the life of any canine who is healthy but is having moderate or severe problems affecting the use of its rear legs or balance on four legs. While there is a lot of adjustment available with this model chair, it is for larger dogs. I recommend your dog be at least 60 pounds and have full use of its front legs or else you are wasting your time and money. My 12 year old Springer Sam, is feeling the effects of an active life and severe spinal spondylosis. He is no longer able to walk without support. At 22 inches and 70 pounds, Sam is taller and heavier than a standard Springer, making this chair the right fit for him. Since he is able to move his back legs but not support his weight, I set the chair up to hold his back and rear end in a normal position. He can now use his rear legs while walking and supported by the structure of the chair. Sam caught on to the concept of this device immediately and I was able to walk him about a quarter mile with out having to assist him in any way. In the last two weeks, Sam has mastered the chair and zips along at a moderate pace. Needless to say, regaining his mobility has greatly impoved his mood and confidence. I just wish I'd purchased it sooner. One caution, the chair can roll over easily on inclined surfaces...your dog can not right it on its own. DO NOT allow your animal to use this device unsupervised, especially in areas of uneven terrain!

not happy
By Sweet Pea
I was so excited about getting this for my dog who had her rear right leg amputated nearly 3 years ago. I talked about it for awhile and then started researching different ones on the internet. I was happy when I found this because the price was so reasonable, but with my dog weighing just over 60 pounds, we really weren't sure which size to try. When I tried contacting the company first, I was really disappointed when I reached some girl who could only repeat to me what their ad reads about the chair fitting 99% of dogs between 60 and 100 pounds. No kidding. She couldn't give me any more information than what I could read for myself! So after ordering the large, it turns out to be too big for my dog, one of the connecting pieces was wrong, and she kept falling off that goofy thing she's supposed to rest her back end on. And no real instructions on how to hook her up to it. Then the 'free' sports harness was useless since it's not even shown in the manual so I called them again to find out how to strap it on my dog. Whoever had that information wasn't there and never returned my call either. The only good thing was that they sent the proper connecting piece. The ONLY reason we didn't return it is because we have another dog who is bigger that may need it someday and hopefully will work for her.

doggie wheelchair
By SPIRITWINDFARM
this doggie wheelchair was cheaper than most which is why I bought it...but you get what you pay for. It works but the first time I used it the clasps that hook to the harness broke. We fixed with electrical tape. The tummy harness: it came with two; the first was fabric and when on it covered up her pee and poop holes and it got coated or wet everytime. The rubber "tubes" harness worked for us but was a little rough on her belly so we padded the area ourselves. All in all it gave her more mobility and made for a happier dog which is why it got 3 stars.
