Walkin’ Pets Scooter for Paralysed dogs

"Can my pet lie down in the Scooter?"
Yes, they can lie down while using they Scooter. Because their back end is slightly raised some pets may not find this comfortable and may prefer to sit on the scooter. For most dogs laying down is not an issue.

"How long can my pet stay in the Scooter?"
The Scooter is comfortably padded, and the Scooter bag has the screened panel for air, so there is no problem leaving the dog in the scooter for longer periods of time. If the dog is incontinent then hygiene needs to be maintained, even if the dog is wearing a diaper.

"Can my pet use their Scooter outside?"
We recommend the Scooter for indoor use and to help your pet easily maneuver indoor obstacles. The Scooter is designed to be gentle on your walls, baseboards and flooring. The Scooter’s special roller ball casters will move easily across hardwood flooring, tile, linoleum and Berber carpeting. With its low profile the Scooter may catch on roots, stones and other outdoor obstacles. For your pet’s safety the Scooter should be used inside. For outdoor use we recommend the Walkin’ Wheels Wheelchair.

"Can my pet be left unattended in the Scooter?"
Most pets are very comfortable in the Scooter and can wear it for extended periods of time without issue.  However, there is always the possibility that the scooter can get stuck on or under a piece of furniture, doorway, or similar obstruction so we do not recommend leaving the dog unattended for long periods of time. You and your dog will get to know the limitations of the scooter and be able to judge this based on the individual circumstances.

"How do I care for it?"
The Scooter base and Scooter pad can be cleaned with a cloth or sponge. The Scooter bag can be detached from the base for easy cleaning, it should be cleaned by hand and air dried.

"My pet is incontinent can they wear a diaper while using the Scooter?"
Yes, the Scooter is perfect for incontinent pets and can be worn with a diaper or male wrap. The water-resistant material of the Scooter bag can easily be wiped clean and air dried.
