Dog Wheelchair Fitting

We are proud to be recommended wheelchair fitters for Zoomadog, specialising in the fitting of Walkin’ Wheels wheelchairs. Having completed their specialised online training, we ensure you receive accurate, professional guidance, allowing you to focus completely on your dog’s comfort and well-being.

Who Needs a Wheelchair?

Wheelchairs are beneficial for dogs experiencing mobility loss, especially those with:

• Neurological conditions: Including degenerative myelopathy (DM), paralysis, IVDD, or nerve damage
• Advanced osteoarthritis/hip dysplasia: Where pain and joint stiffness make sustained walking impossible
• Amputations or injuries: Offering essential support to aid balance and movement
• Post-surgical support: Providing controlled mobility during rehabilitation
  
  

The Problem with Incorrect Fitting

A poorly-fitted wheelchair can cause pressure sores, rub points, skin damage, and even lead to further pain or injury. Getting the right fit is crucial to ensuring your dog is comfortable, safe, and happy.

Our Expert Fitting Process

We take the stress out of the process by managing the entire fitting at your home (within the area surrounding Chester), ensuring your dog is relaxed and you feel confident.

• Initial assessment: We assess your dog’s current mobility, strength, and specific condition
• Precise fitting: We ensure the height, length, harness, and stirrups (if required) are adjusted perfectly to provide the necessary support and comfort
• Mobility training: We guide you through safely lifting your dog into the chair, using it for the first time, and integrating its use into their daily routine
• WhatsApp support: We are available for one month post-fitting to answer any questions and help make small adjustments as your dog adapts
