Default My daughter's dog has new wheels.
Wanted to share this picture of my daughter's dog and his new set of wheels. He was diagnosed with g.s.m.s. He has lost alot of control in his rear legs. This cart has him walking again. It's sometimes difficult keeping up with him!
Thanks...Jake T.

Beautiful dog!

Thanks all for the kind words. His name is Sambuca and he is 9 years old. He's a family member and we love him. The first time my daughter hooked him up to his new wheels he took off like a rocket. g.s.m.s. is german shepherd multiple sclorosis (hope I spelled that correctly). The vet says it a neurological problem. It came on quickly.

Awesome! Wheels have become a fabulous help to bigger dogs with this disorder. Glad he's doing so well :-)
