Using a Dog Wheelchair in a Professional Pet Care Facility

Animal HospitalAn Adjustable dog wheelchair is not only an end-of-life support device, but it is also rehabilatation equipment. Where custom wheelchairs are designed to be used by one dog for a lifetime, adjustable wheelchairs can be used by any dog for short or long periods of time.

After surgery, for example, you might want to keep a dog 'off his back legs' for a few weeks while healing. In the past, the dog might have be restricted to a kennel for this time. Now, you can put him in a Walkin' Wheels, allowing the rest of his body to get the exercise it needs, while protecting the healing limb.

What's more, as the limb gains strength, you can slowly apply more weight to the leg by fractionally lowering the wheels every few days.

As a rehabilatative device, the Walkin' Wheels can be stored flat, adjusted as needed, loaned or rented to the client, and reused again and again.
