Our Dog Cart Wizard (at the bottom of this page) will build the dog wheelchair you need.

All you need to do to is:
1 - Answer a  few questions

3 - Our Dog Cart wizard will help you select the correct wheel and strut size
4 - Select you wheel and strut size in the pull down menu
5 - Add to Cart
 

Guidelines To fit into the Walkin' Wheels Dog Wheelchair:
Length of the dog from the back of the front leg to the back of the rear leg needs to be between 9 and 26 inches.
Height of the dog, Fold of Flank to Ground needs to be between 6 and 25 inches.

The height of the dog is needed so we can select the correct wheel and strut. It snaps in and can be easily changed.   This picture shows where a dog's fold of the flank (FOF) is. If you have a long-haired dog, you can locate the fold of the flank by pushing the hair back and feeling for the fold of flank skin. If your dog can stand, use a metal retractable tape measure or yardstick, place it in front of his rear foot/toes and measure straight up to the bottom edge of fold of the flank. If your dog cannot stand, you can measure the fold of the flank when he is lying on his side. In order to get an accurate measurement, position the dog's rear leg in a normal standing position: knee joint and hock joint will be slightly bent. Bend the dog's foot at his ankle (like it would be if he was standing on his foot). Do NOT stretch the dog's leg and foot out as this will add several inches to the fold of flank and give you an inaccurate measurement. In this picture the yardstick shows a FOF of 18 inches

Fold of Flank to Ground Measurement: (THE HEIGHT OF THE DOG IS MEASURED FROM THE FOLD OF FLANK TO GROUND WHEN STANDING.)
