 "Bruno our 4 year old Bull Mastiff had surgery on his left hind leg approximately 2 years ago. This was for a luxating patella. Unfortunately the operation was not a success, so Bruno has been walking on three legs for the majority of time, because he is such a big and heavy puppy, this is causing problems for his right hind leg. I was so unsure whether or not such a large heavy dog could cope in a wheelchair but after talking to you I decided to give it a try. No sooner had we assembled the wheelchair, Bruno was raring to go so off we went for that first trip. What a difference, Bruno was wagging his tail and even managed to spend a penny! Within two days he was happy to perform all toilet duties!! This was easily done through us being patient, consistent and loads of praise for him at the precise time it was needed. Bruno is now due to have a total knee replacement, the wheelchair will be invaluable as his continual walking aid and for his rehabilitation. My only regret is that I did not have the good sense to have a wheelchair eighteen months ago, when he had his first operation. Thanks to the support that the wheelchair provides, his right hind leg is not suffering further damage and its function is definitely improved. I honestly don't know how we have coped without it, I have found that for some unknown reason, people are very sceptical about big dogs in wheelchairs, well Bruno is living proof that large dogs can definitely benefit big time from your wheelchairs and he can now be seen on You Tube enjoying his first trip out. Please give my phone number to anyone who is doubtful about having a wheelchair for their large dog, I will be more than happy to talk to them. Sincere thanks to you and Doggon Wheels, Bruno's quality of life has definitely been improved."

"What makes this video so amazing, is that up until that day, Tara had always run away from the sea, straight up the beach, as fast as possible! It was always as if the waves scared her, but not anymore! The strangest part about it, is that she's not afraid of lakes or rivers, in fact she goes straight into them as soon as she sees the water!" Regards, Muriel & Edwin Newman | ||

We took our dog to France and had more relax time to adjust and try it
in the campsite. Bobby wasn't bothered at all...In fact, his tail went up
straight away and he seemed to have a big smile on his face which we hadn't
seen for a long long time.
As you might know it takes a while for the dog to adapt to the chair but as we were trying it regularly, it didn't take that long to get the correct adjustment for the straps and Bobby was the king attraction of the campsite...All the kids were watching him walk, all dogs owners were asking and commenting on how great it was and our Bobby was like at the head of the parade... We felt proud of having done the right thing and bought him that chair but most importantly we were more than happy for our dog. Happy to see him revive. And I do mean that. Since the chair he's just another dog...or shall I say , he's the dog he was a few years ago. Not just the fact that he can walk longer walks or that he's not huffing and puffing anymore, but he's now full of it, his tail is up, his eyes are full of sparkles, he's cheeky again, he barks a lot more and his all body seems to have found a second youth. Before buying the wheelchair, same as everyone else I guess , I read the testimonials on your site, and was imagining that something good would come out of it...But never did I dream of seeing my dog becoming my dog again. I really thought the chair would help him support his back legs and help his weak back to walk better but everything that has changed in him since is more than we expected. So much that when he walks without it , he actually walks properly now too. We had been advised by the vet to also put him on a diet in order to lose that weight he had gained over the last few years ( as he walked less and did less exercise he did put weight on); he's now losing weight, walks longer, which in turn makes it easier for himself and helps him do even more exercise...and walk even further. This is it, there's no turning back, our dog has been resuscitated. He was getting old and in bad shape, he's now young, full of vigor and still has a long happy life in front of him, all thanks to the wheelchair you made him. Thank you so so much. From all of us (my wife and the kids...and also my other dog, his best buddy) a big big big THANK YOU !!!" Best regards, Daniel | ||

Just wanted to say a big thank you for your help and advice, we received a wheelchair for our 9 year old GSD Charli last week who had been diagnosed with CDRM.
Although she still has a variable amount of mobility herself, the wheels are great for taking her on slightly longer walks than the plodding ones she can manage herself, and she loves the extra attention she's getting from everyone who meets her. She didn't show any hesitation when we first fitted her and the sturdy wheels are great for both path and field walks, we hope to take her to the beach soon as she's always loved to paddle in the sea. Once again thank you for giving Charli and us a new lease of life." Kindest Regards, Laura, Mick and Charli Miles | ||

Purdy is a 12 year old English Springer bitch. Early in her life she had a serious accident.
Hurtling down the back garden she collided with the metal washing line prop with enough force to leave it bent. This incident ruptured both cruciate ligaments and resulted in ongoing leg problems throughout her life. Both were operated on and mended but over the years time took its toll and the joints began to fail and arthritis started to set in, and she was constantly in pain. A further TPLO operation on the left leg improved things for a while, but slowly deteriorated leaving her unable to walk far without difficulty with her hind legs. We were at a loss as to what to do next when we saw the advert for the "doggon wheels buggy." This seemed to offer a solution which would provide some mobility and allow her to go for walks with our other two dogs. She had only been able to go for a short walk up the road and round the cul de sac at a slow pace. She is now at least two years younger and really enjoys going for a walk round the field with the other dogs. The "Chariot" as we call it has far outweighed our expectations. She can even have a little run with it, and you can see by the look on her face that she enjoys her new freedom. A really good machine which has given her a new lease of life." Barbara | ||

 "This is Boris our soon to be 10 year old puppy. He is very special to us, we bred him ourselves and lost his mum 3 years ago. He was struck down by the wretched CDRM last summer (2007) but continued to be fairly mobile until February 08. He has always loved his almost daily 3 - 4 mile walks around the lanes and paths where we live. With increasing disability he was unable to make a meaningful walk without falling and twisting into a big heap. The thought of having a very depressed dog stuck in the house was not something we could contemplate. Then we found your carts. Easy to order, very quick delivery, very clear assembly and fitting instructions. Boris was rather apprehensive as i started assembling this weird contraption in front of him and even more confused when he was put in it! Once round the garden being encouraged was enough for him and he RAN (yes ran) to the back door, getting in the house without hitting anything and then tried to get into his basket with cart still attached! After a few tentative trips round our local recreation park he was more used to the cart but bored so we set off across the public footpaths. Now 3 weeks later we are doing walks we haven't been able to do for 6 months. Boris is once again happy and alert and able to enjoy his walks and loves the attention he gets from fellow walkers. I have had several people come up to me and say that if only they had known about these carts when their dogs were disabled. I would recommend these carts to anyone who has a dog with walking difficulties, it has given back Boris his walks and his life."John, Ann, Robert and Chris Holmes | ||

 "It took Blackie about a week to get used to her Doggon' Wheels but now she loves to go out with our other dogs. She has had arthritis in her back legs since she was about 6months old but it has now spread to her spine (She is now about 11 yrs old) Prior to getting the wheels she was confined to the back garden or a slow crawl round the cul-de-sac, which resulted in her scraping her back paws due to 'knuckling'. Now she can walk and explore all the exciting smells and, even though she drags one leg, she can now get some limited movement in both back legs, thus maintaining some muscle tone. This has got to be better than going to the Vets for the big needle. Thank you for giving Blackie a new lease of life."Bob Bates | ||
