Meet Magoo! The 53rd Disabled Dog The Frankie Wheelchair has Helped.

No better way, I think, than to start a Monday with a happy, rolling, weenie dog!

Meet Magoo!  He’s been rolling awhile now in his Eddie’s Wheels cart. His mom has had a few knocks and is trying hard to pay off the surgery for Magoo with a Go Fund Me effort (she is soooooo close!).

Magoo’s mom reached out saying:

I hope you can help us. If I can get this bill paid down, I can start Magoo in PT on an appointment by appointment basis. When I have these debts paid, I will happily pay it forward to you in what small donations I can muster over time.

Magoo’s mom also had many people say she should put Magoo down, but she knows IVDD is not a death sentence and she is doing all she can to help Magoo.

And just so you know, Magoo’s wheels have not slowed him down one bit. Check out these short videos below.

Are We on a Roll or What? Meet Canelo - #52 Disabled Dog to Get Wheels!
Canelo and Suzanne

Yesterday I shared Maui, a disabled doxie who got her wheels courtesy of The Frankie Wheelchair Fund…

and well, let’s just keep on rolling, shall we?

Meet Canelo!  He is the newest little fellow we’ve been able to help.

Such a sweet photo of him out on a stroll with his wonderful caretaker, Suzanne — who happens to take care of 22 other dogs — taking in strays and disabled dogs.

And isn’t it adorable how she and Canelo have matching coats?

Such love in this photo and such love in my heart to share these happy stories with you.

Canelo’s  wheels custom made my Eddie’s Wheels for Pets.

Alex Makes the 50th Dog Helped with a Dog Wheelchair!

Alex

We are doing a happy dance here at Joyful Paws headquarters!

Why?

Because Alex is the 50th dog the Frankie Wheelchair Fund has granted a wheelchair to!

Alex is currently with foster, Sandi, with Dachshund Rescue of South Florida. She sent me ths picture of Alex and said, “Here’s a pic of sweet n snugly Alex in his Eddie’s Wheels. He took to his wheels like a duck to water!”

Does not surprise me one bit. I’ve seen time and time again how these dogs get on with the joy of living life — now rolling through the grass, down the street, and over their human’s feet. Nothing stops them!

A very special thanks to Sarah of The Smoothe Store as the money she raised selling dog banandas last fall helped pay for Alex’s wheelchair which she donated to the Frankie Wheelchair Fund.

You can apply, donate, or learn more about the fund on our website, National Walk ‘N Roll Dog Day.

Keep on rolling Alex!
