How to Measure for a Walkin' Wheels Dog Wheelchair

Choosing the right size wheelchair for your pet & how to measure

It's simple and easy to determine what size Walkin' Wheels is best for your pet. Watch the video below for step-by-step instructions:

1. Weigh Your Pet

Your dog's breed and weight will determine the size wheelchair frame will best fit their build and size. 

2. Measure 

To size most pets for a wheelchair we need only two simple measurements, the rear leg height and in small pets under 25 lb. their length measurement

How to Measure the Rear Leg Height

With your pet laying on their side, measure the rear leg height to the toe pad. Leave their leg with a natural bend, do not stretch or extend the leg. 

How to Measure the Dog's Length 

Also known as the armpit to rump measurement, all dog's under 25 lb. need to be measured from the back of the front leg to the end of their body in the rear.
