Wheelchairs, mobility carts, wheels and rides! It's not the end, but rather a new lease on life! But Cathy and Chris realize that taking that step can be a big one. For some, committing to a wheelchair may be daunting. For others, providing independence and freedom to their pet is a no-brainer. Whatever your situation, needs, or goals, Chris and Cathy will help you to navigate the world of pet wheelchairs so you can make the most informed decision about what may be right for you and your pet. Who is a candidate for a cart? How can we help our pets adjust? What features should you look for? Is it forever? Can I make one or should I buy one? Does it need to be custom or can I get by with an off-the-shelf cart? And yes, your pet can pee and poop in the cart! Finally, carts aren't just for dogs anymore....
