| Bentley's mom - do you know how to PM someone here (Mybabe4me)? Being a student, this is unbelievably unfair! Of course, it's unfair no matter what. But I can't imagine how overwhelmed you must feel. I hope that we can help you ask the right questions and get the right answers.

| Here is a site that sells them. I have a neighbor who "made" his little dog one. I don't think it would cost much if you could find someone who could make one for you. http://www.doggon.com/home.html |

| I have a wheelchair for my little guy. I made my first one out of pvc pipe and caster wheels. I his wheelchair I have now is made by Eddie's wheels. Question is what does she need the cart/wheelchair for?? back legs, front legs. When it comes to buying a second hand wheelchairs you have to remember that all carts are specially fitted to the dog they were made for. But sometimes you can buy second hand carts at Handicapped Pets - Elderly, Disabled, Injured, and Special Needs Pets these guys have a wanted ADs and forsale ADs. If I can answer any questions please write me and I will help you as much as possible.

| I am really in awe of this? Is he on Prednisone and pain meds? I can't believe this is permanent. Did they do an MRI or CT or xray? Please tell us more. Connie is a member here and her little Kirby had a disc issue, where his back legs were paralyzed. He had to stay in a Cat Cage (so he couldn't move) and he was on Prednisone and Tramadol and he remained contained for about 2 months...BUT he is ok now and he is walking again http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/my-...-kirby-go.html http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/gen...ate-kirby.html http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/gen...improving.html http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/sic...ray-kirby.html |
