Making the decision about whether to put an aging pet down is always difficult, perhaps especially so if the pet is struggling with mobility issues, but is otherwise full of life. It can also be heart wrenching to have a puppy that becomes disabled, whether due to disease or injury, and be faced with whether its quality of life is such that an end-of-life decision ought to be considered.<\/p>\n<p>The good news is that there have been tremendous advances in the kind of mobility assistance devices that are readily available, giving pet lovers real alternatives to euthanasia.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dog Wheelchairs Have Become Easy Options<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Although dog wheelchairs have been around for decades, they were not in the mainstream. The carts were expensive and required dog owners to take many precise measurements. After that, dog caretakers had to wait weeks while custom carts were built. It is easy to understand why pet owners might have decided that their pets\u2019 time had come, instead of giving their dogs a chance to try a set of wheels.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-110 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/walkin-pets-2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/walkin-pets-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/walkin-pets-2.jpg 621w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Then in 2008, HandicappedPets.com developed the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.handicappedpets.com\/adjustable-dog-wheelchairs\">Walkin\u2019 Wheels<\/a> wheelchair, an adjustable cart that required only one measurement, could ship the same day, and was affordable. With the advent of that wheelchair, pet owners had a clear option to euthanasia when a pet got injured, stricken with a disease, or was simply slowing down due to old age.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rescue Organizations Often Help Those in the Greatest Need<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-114 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/walkin-pets-3-300x165.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"165\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/walkin-pets-3-300x165.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/walkin-pets-3-768x421.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/walkin-pets-3.jpg 820w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Sometimes dogs with the greatest physical needs wind up in the care of pet rescue organizations. Nine years ago, New Hampshire resident Courtney Dunning adopted a one-year-old disabled dog, Lucy, from a Puerto Rican rescue. The rescue had picked up Lucy after she was hit by a car, resulting in rear limb paralysis.<\/p>\n<p>Lucy adapted extremely well to her dog wheelchair, and Courtney takes popping her in and out of it in stride. \u201cIt wound up being no harder than caring for any other dog,\u201d says Courtney. \u201cLucy doesn\u2019t know she\u2019s different from other dogs. She\u2019s just being a dog and loving life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Canine Mobility Challenges<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>German Shepherds, notorious for developing Degenerative Myelopathy, and Dachshunds, that have an estimated 25% incidence of intervertebral disc disease (IVDD), are among the breeds that are well loved but that suffer from a high rate of mobility challenges. But they are not alone; disease and injuries spare no breed, with resulting mobility impairments afflicting dogs of all ages.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-113 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/walkin-pets-4-300x231.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"231\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/walkin-pets-4-300x231.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/walkin-pets-4.jpg 424w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Carole Rowlette cares for 13 Dachshunds in her home in Wyoming. Three or four at a time are usually in dog wheelchairs. She advocates for the use of dog wheelchairs for rehab and strengthening, so leg muscles do not atrophy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf the dog is injured and gets laser therapy and acupuncture in time, they can often walk again, because you take the pressure off the legs,\u201d says Carole.<\/p>\n<p><strong>More Widespread Use of Dog Wheelchairs Changing Views Worldwide<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Greater accessibility to dog wheelchairs has resulted in a broadening awareness of this option, not only in the United States, but globally. Dog wheelchairs are no longer looked at as an oddity or luxury in many countries, but as a viable solution to help a pet stay mobile.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-109 size-medium alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/walkin-pets-5-300x291.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"291\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/walkin-pets-5-300x291.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/walkin-pets-5.jpg 474w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Hong Kong dog owners Nigel and Sandra Snell summarized this well in an <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scmp.com\/news\/hong-kong\/education-community\/article\/2020025\/hong-kong-wheelchair-dog-wins-spot-international\">article<\/a> about their dog, Tessa, in the <em>South China Morning Post: <\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe [Tessa] still has this passion to be outdoors, so we decided it was up to us to make her mobile again.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As dogs are increasingly viewed as family members in many cultures, as they are in the United States, pet owners are happy to discover available resources to extend their lives while preserving a high quality of life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Types of Dog Wheelchairs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The most common dog wheelchairs are for pets with impairment in their rear legs.
