Weimaraner being stubborn with new Walkin Wheels Wheelchair

Post by Woowoo110 »

We have a 12 year old Weimaraner who has disc problems and has lost the use of her back legs. We bought her a Walkin Wheels wheelchair. We got it last night. She walked in it and seemed ok with it. Not thrilled but ok.

We got home today and took her outside and got her to pee and poop in it. We were thrilled. We've taken her out twice since then and she doesn't really want to walk in it and won't pee again. We know she needs to go.

Are we pushing her too much? Should we go slower with getting her used to it? We just didn't want her to think if she waits long enough we'd give in. She's very stubborn.

Thanks so much!
