How It Works

A dog wheel chair is not really a chair, as we would think of for a person. Instead, it is an apparatus that straps onto a dog and supports its injured or missing limbs with wheels. In this way the dog is able to use its remaining limbs to propel itself along, and roll on the wheels. This standard type of dog wheel chair is reliant on the dog still having some working legs. Dogs with all four legs missing or unusable may be helped by owner-operated carts or through some other customized setup.
