I recently adopted Oliver, a paraplegic Corgi. I picked him up sight unseen on the way to a camping trip. Knowing he did not have a cart, I brought along a Walkin Wheels which was generously donated to CorgiAid and had just been returned from it's first (two year) loan. As I was not sure of Oliver's size but knew he was a large corgi this seemed a good bet. I knew for certain he had never used a cart.
anyway, a few adjustments, and in he went. Here is Oliver, with Candy and a bunch of corgis, on Oliver's SECOND day in the cart.
Oliver is now in a K9 cart primarily because, as a creature of habit, I need to be making the same motions to put Oliver in his cart as I do for Candy (if you don't understand why try stumbling out of bed at 6 am and putting two dogs in carts before you get your coffee...) and because we needed a custom wide wheelbase, but the WW was a great solution for the trip. It has already shipped out to help another big corgi.

Bobbie,
Thanks for the posts of the Corgis playing in their carts. I'm glad to hear that Oliver is in good hands.
