Meet Douglas – Granted a Wheelchair through The Frankie Wheelchair Fund

Meet Douglas: Granted a Wheelchair through The Frankie Wheelchair Fund

Douglas is the 43rd dog to receive a wheelchair from The Frankie Wheelchair Fund.

You just have to love a dachshund face, don’t you?

His mom, Kourtney, who works at a vet office, graciously adopted Douglas due to his previous owners who could no longer care for him.

Douglas does have a few other medical issues which Kourney is doing her best to get under control and give him a quality life.

According to the vet seeing Douglas she said, “Douglas is already bonding to Kourtney and wants to be next to her. Having a wheelchair for him will allow him to be near her as he wishes.”

Wish granted so that Douglas can live a quality life with someone who has his best interest at heart and doing all she can to give him a wonderful life.

I think I’m safe in saying that the readers here at Joyful Paws are cheering you on, Douglas!  Keep on rolling!

If you wish to support The Frankie Wheelchair Fund the anuual campaign is running for another 7-days with t-shirts being sold to benefit the fund (in collaboration with celebrating National Walk ‘N Roll Dog Day on Sept. 22.) We are currently at 89 sold (thank you!!) and hope to reach 100 or more. This will provide a little over $1,000 to the fund if we hit 100.  Thanks for your consideration!
