Last Wednesday we drove and ferried up to Langley, WA to have Tassel fitted for this cart. As noted in earlier posts here on the dogs' blog, our pretty red & white girl has a bad right knee. (You can see in this picture that she avoids putting weight on it.)
The good people at Pet Mobility & Rehab Center, spent a good hour with us, getting the cart adjusted, teaching us how best to get Tass acquainted with it, and generally making sure that we were fully equipped to deal with what will most likely be a steady decline in her ability to get around.
We are experimenting with solo and "both dogs" walks, bribes with treats, and off-leash meanderings in the back & front yards. The plan is to have her able to use it before it becomes absolutely necessary. She's not the happiest camper when lashed into her cart, but it looks like she'll get used to it before long.
