Re: News: Blanche / wheelchair to donate *PIC*

Winnie! Just an update to let you know how well Ellie is doing. I can't believe that it has been six years! We were told that if Ellie didn't resume walking after 8 weeks, that she never would. Luckily, you came along, and the wheelchair. Ellie loved the chair, and it gave her little tail its wag ba...

Re: News: Blanche / wheelchair to donate

She's raising awareness in Kentucky, too. I don't think I've ever seen a wheelchair around here. Many people suggested that we put Ellie down, and it wasn't until we got the chair this morning that I really knew that I had made the right decision. I can't wait to take her to the pet store and show h...

Re: News: Blanche / wheelchair to donate

Winnie! We picked up the wheelchair this morning from FedEx (we're going out of town and couldn't wait for delivery!). She was a little shy about her new chair, but started zooming about in no time. It fits her to a t. We got in from our first walk and now she's tooling around the house. I haven't s...

Re: News: Blanche / wheelchair to donate

Oh, Winnie! That's so exciting! I hadn't heard from them...I didn't know that it was done! Ellie's doing better in little ways. She's really got the scooting thing down and is able to get down the front stairs now. She's still pretty bummed, but I expect that to change when she's able to zip around ...

Re: News: Blanche / wheelchair to donate

Winnie,

Sorry that I haven't gotten back to you. I've been ill, and I have no internet at the house. I'll call Leslie today.

Ellie is doing okay. She's able to balance on her legs for very short periods of time. We're a little over half way done with the window of time that we were given.

Re: News: Blanche / wheelchair to donate

Winnie, When Ellie had her accident, we had to make a lot of decisions quickly. She had a 50/50 chance of walking again. We had some pressure to put her down, mainly because of the cost. I've questioned our decision ever since. Your kindness? And the help that you're giving us in restoring her mobil...

Re: News: Blanche / wheelchair to donate

Winnie, I was waiting to see if it was possible before I sent measurements...but I can get them tonight. It's so hard to tell exactly how she's doing. Some days I'm convinced that she's regaining muscle strength, some days I think it might never happen. She's really learned how to scootch where she ...

Re: News: Blanche / wheelchair to donate

Winnie,

I haven't heard from her. It would be great if you wanted to contact her. I can't believe how generous you've been.

Re: News: Blanche / wheelchair to donate

Winnie,

I understand why you'd want to donate the cart in your hometown, but if that doesn't go through, I hope that you'll be comfortable giving it to us. I contacted Leslie, we'll see what she says. Thank you SO MUCH for considering us.

Re: News: Blanche / wheelchair to donate *PIC*

I'm so sorry to read about Blanche. I know how hard it is to lose a pet. I was wondering if the wheelchair was still available. My dog had surgery for two slipped discs, and we're still not sure whether or not she'll walk again. She's 37 pounds, a sheltie/spitz mix. We would be greatful, if you are ...
