A Chihuahua Wheelchair for Dogs as Light as 2 Pounds

A wheelchair gives your chihuahua a way to keep up when mobility problems take their legs but not their spirit. Luxating patella or IVDD are the usual suspects with this breed, but nothing has to mean the end of their walks. Your search for a chihuahua wheelchair ends here.

With more than 25 years in the dog wheelchair business, we’re proud to have restored mobility for 1.85 million pets and counting. Our wheelchairs are vet-endorsed and backed by countless success stories. Here’s what makes Walkin’ Pets the right choice for your chihuahua:

• Sized for the smallest dogs: Your Chihuahua gets a frame that actually matches their body instead of swimming in something built for a bigger dog.
• One measurement for a guaranteed fit: All we need is your dog's rear leg height measured to the toe pad and their armpit to rump measurement. Plug that into our SureFit Calculator and we’ll point you to the right frame. You can rest assured you’re getting the perfect fit, or we’ll fix it for you.
• Fully adjustable: The frame adjusts in height, length, and width, so the same wheelchair still works if your dog's condition changes down the road.
• Ships within 24-48 hours: No custom build means you’re not waiting weeks, watching your pet suffer. Order now, and your dog has it by the end of the week.

Finding the Right Size For Your Chihuahua

Weight determines the right chihuahua wheelchair for you to order. Our mini dog wheelchair is the right starting point for most chihuahuas, but don’t play the guessing game. Our SureFit Calculator sorts it out in just a few clicks. Or, call us if you want to talk it through.

A lot of pet parents come to us searching for a dog wheelchair for back legs first, since IVDD and luxating patella hit the rear legs. However, K9 Carts (our other brand) has an amazing dog wheelchair for front legs. These are custom-built, so they take a little bit longer, but not nearly as long as other custom wheelchair brands. Or you can get a 4-wheel dog wheelchair here on our website to support both the front and rear legs simultaneously.

Our sister company, K9 Carts, can help you make an ultra-lightweight custom cart if need be. Otherwise, find the perfect chihuahua wheelchair here on this page! 

Frequently Asked Questions

Are dog wheelchairs a good idea for chihuahuas?

Absolutely. People worry they're too tiny, but we have wheelchairs for dogs as light as 2 pounds.

How to make a wheelchair fit a chihuahua?

Just measure rear leg height at a natural bend. Plug that into our SureFit Calculator with your dog's weight, and you'll get the right size. The frame is adjustable out of the box. Tweak it at home until it’s perfect. Our team can walk you through that part, too.

How does a dog in a wheelchair go to the bathroom?

Normally. Nothing sits underneath them. The frame stays behind and to the sides. Your Chihuahua can go without you having to take the chair off. 

Are dogs in wheelchairs happy?

Yes! Chihuahuas especially. They go from barely moving to running across the yard in minutes. Tails start wagging and the energy comes right back. You'll see it the second the wheels hit the ground.
