Boxer Buddy
Our 9 1/2 year old male boxer Thatcher has DM. I have not had him tested but 4 different vets said that's most likely what it is.
It's been about a year since I first noticed symptoms, we have worn out several sets of booties and kept him walking and as healthy as can be expected.
We feed our boxers only TOTW and have for years now.
It's time to get Thatcher a wheelchair. I've been looking around and I like the Dwanecart a lot, using 20" bike wheels seems like an advantage and the videos I've seen make it look like the dogs just naturally take to the thing and are able to get around great right away.
Has anyone here used Dwanecart?
Any advice on the day to day stuff and / or anything new going on medically?
With his age and size I don't expect him to see another Christmas, but I want him to have more good days in the coming year so whatever we can do to help him will be great.
Thanks, you all were very kind when our girl Tuppy passed so I know this is a place where we can come and find answers about our Boxer friends and their needs.
