We were back at the vet this AM. Third time this week. The remaining rear leg is now essentially useless. Vet indicates probably arthritis in the hip. After some feedback from people in the chat room, we checked out three sources: (1) Walkin’ Wheels by handicappedpets.com; (2) Eddy’s Wheels; and (3) Doggon Wheels, I think this was at dogwheelchairs.com. I also looked on line for reviews of these products and decided on Walkin’ Wheels. It is anticipated that we will receive the equipment on Monday. Meantime, our girl is very dependent on my husband and a sling. Her attitude remains very good. My husband gets a little frustrated with himself in lifting/guiding her. We’re in our early 60s. Next time I think we will have to choose a smaller dog.
Thanks to those in the chat room who gave us some input.
And thank you for joining us, and for this update. You’ll get lots more feedback from other members if you post in the forums too!
