Sit Down Dog Wheelchairs
Sit Down Dog Wheelchairs
Why the SitGo Sit-Down Wheelchair from Best Friend Mobility doesn’t work.
The purpose of the dog wheelchair is to help the dog get exercise. At Walkin’ Pets we’ve gone to great lengths to make sure our wheelchair never collapses on the dog. This is for the health and safety of the dog.
We did thoroughly investigate the possibilities of creating a sit-down chair but have not yet found a way to make it safe.
We are aware that another company has created what they call a sit-down chair. The reviews on this chair on Amazon are pretty bad, and the good reviews are mostly fake, according to Fakespot (a company that analyzes Amazon reviews.) See the ranking here.
Amigo Dog Wheelchair
The Amigo Dog Wheelchair is an invention of Israeli engineer Nir Shalom. This outstanding innovation is more of a prosthetic, as it attaches securely to the dog and works like a part of his or her body. It is essentially a custom-built wheelchair that cannot be adjusted. Walkin’ Pets was impressed with this unique invention and wanted to share Mr. Shalom’s video.
There have been attempts by other companies to make a sit-down or lay-down dog wheelchair that is adjustable, but unfortunately, the reviews have been quite bad and the return rates very high. Walkin’ Pets does not advocate the use of this type of wheelchair, because the safety and health of the dog is of paramount importance to us. We believe the Walkin’ Wheels fully adjustable dog wheelchair is the highest quality product available. The Walkin’ Wheels is designed to enable pets to stay active, which helps maintain muscle strength and overall good health.
