✨Ophelia Needs a Wheelchair✨

No one knows why Ophelia cannot walk but instead of dwelling on that we HAVE been given the “all clear” to get her moving by both her primary veterinarian and her neurologist🫶

Right now, with the help of harnesses and slings, she is building muscle and learning to balance and walk but there are only so many hours in the day we can be holding Ophelia up. She is held to walk, to play, to p**p, to check the yard when a new bird lands…she’s a puppy and we owe her that. (She would like me to add that she is standing unsupported for meals now because she’s amazing)

Her veterinary team has recommended a full support wheelchair to help her build strength and give her a place to rest while vertical to help her brain connect back to her feet standing rather than lying down as a part of her rehabilitation.

We know the are lots of homemade and less expensive options for wheelchairs but in our experience they don’t work as well and when you work with many high needs animals, efficiency is important so we want to stick with for her full support cart.

If you want to help Ophie get wheels, all the ways to do it are below👇
