Get Your Little Pup Back to Moving Like Themselves With a Small Dog Wheelchair!
Your dog can't use their back legs the way they used to. Whether it's IVDD or degenerative myelopathy, a dog wheelchair gets them moving on their own again. Our small dog wheelchair fits dogs 11-25 lbs, fully adjustable to your dog's exact proportions.
The small dog wheelchair starts at $319 for rear-leg support. The 4-wheel dog wheelchair in this size starts at $539 when front-leg support is needed too. You can effortlessly adjust either one without tools. Dial in every dimension at home to match your dog's build.
Dogs under 11 lbs have their own frame. Our Mini wheelchair starts at $219 and covers the 2-10 lb range. Dachshunds also get a dedicated model built around their long back and short legs, starting at $249. We’ve thought of every breed here at Walkin’ Pets.
Whatever dog wheelchair for small dogs you go with, everything ships within 24-48 hours. You get a 5-year frame warranty and full-credit returns within 30 days if the fit isn't right. Place your order with peace of mind and get your little furry friend back to living their best life!
How Do I Order the Right Dog Wheelchair For Small Dogs?
The right dog wheelchair for small dogs depends on which legs need support. Our dog wheelchair for back legs is the best starting point if their front legs are still strong. But the quad wheelchair is the better fit if all four legs have lost strength and mobility.
Either way, you only need one measurement: rear leg height from ground to the bend point at the hip. Plug that into the SureFit Calculator along with your dog's weight for clear confirmation on the ideal size for your pet. It’s really that quick and easy - but, our customer service team is available if you have any questions or uncertainties about the right dog wheelchair for small dogs.
Your pet’s new wheelchair arrives ready to adjust. Get the harness fitted and set the frame to your dog's height. Start with short sessions on a flat surface. Dogs are smarter than we give them credit for - they’ll figure it out within a few tries. They’ll be running around joyously before you know it!

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a small dog wheelchair too bulky for my dog?
No. The small frame is built for 11-25 lb dogs and proportioned for that weight range. It folds flat when you’re not using it.
How long can they stay in it?
Start with 15-30 minutes and work up. Most dogs eventually spend several hours a day in their chair. Watch out for rubbing on their skin and take breaks when needed.
My dog is over 25 lbs - what size do they need?
Dogs 26-69 lbs use one of our medium dog wheelchair models. Bigger dogs fit the large dog wheelchair (70+ lbs). There’s a wheelchair for every furry family member here at Walkin’ Pets.
Does the small dog wheelchair convert to four wheels?
Yes. Add a front-wheel attachment to the rear chair to transform it into a quad. This saves you from having to replace the wheelchair altogether, saving money and stress.
