Teach Your Pet to Use the Walkin’ Wheels®
We created the Walkin’ Wheels®with the intention that you will adjust the
wheelchair, put your pet in it, and in a few moments watch him/her run-
ning and playing again. It can happen that way, but it doesn’t always.
A wheelchair can be an adjustment for an animal. To some, there is a
strange device following him/her around making odd noises and
getting caught on furniture and doorways. They will adapt to these chang-
es, but need a little time.
We recommend you be calm, quiet, and slow when putting on the wheel-
chair for the first time. Give your pet lots of stroking and
reassurance. Treats help, too!
1. When starting this process we suggest that you use really good
treats to reward your pet for positive reinforcement/behavior.
Dog biscuits are usually not good enough for him/her to get
excited about. You won't need to keep using extra special treats
every day, just in the beginning of the training process.
A hungry pet is a motivated pet! Work with your pet before you
have fed him/her a meal. She/he will be more eager to pay atten-
tion and earn the food reward if he is hungry.
2. Do not immediately put your pet in the wheelchair. Assemble
the wheelchair and leave it in an area where your pet can see it,
smell it, and touch it.
3. Use Quick Start Guide on next page.
4. Aer your pet is in the wheelchair hold the food reward right at his/
her nose level, and feed several pieces. Then you can move one
foot backwards, again holding the food reward in front of you.
She/he should then walk toward you to get the treat. Before you
know it, she/he is walking in the Walkin' Wheels! Again, give him/
her a treat and positive praise, along with when you see him/her
pee or poo outside in wheelchair.
5. Work in very short (5-10) minute sessions, several times a day to
start off. Give your pet rest periods between each session.
Note: Please do not leave your pet unattended in the wheelchair. Do not
leave your pet in it all day. One hour is recommended.

Quick Start Guide
Your Walkin’ Wheels MINI box contains everything you need to get your pet
rolling.
1. Take wheelchair out of box. Front harness red strap will be on the bottom
and blue strap on the top. Release the two clips on the blue and black
strap so they hang down, keeping it attached to the wheelchair.
2. Releasing the wheels on knuckle. Turn the knob on the knuckle counter
clockwise 2 turns to loosen it up. Move the strut perpendicular to the
wheelchair frame with the red harness strap on bottom. Adjust the
height according to your fold of flank measurement (see p.6).
3. Length: While the knob is still loose, adjust the length to your dog's armpit
to rump measurement (see p.6).
4. Knuckle Adjustment: Tighten the round black knuckle so the teeth are
engaged tightly.
5. Leg Rings: Attach all four wires around the frame to form a seat. The wires
should be wrapped on each side of knuckle tightly. If you push the piece
in the middle, it should hang down 1-2" to form a cradle (see p.7).
6. Width: Unscrew the knobs in back and adjust to your dog's widest area,
which is usually the chest width (see p.7).
7. Stirrups: Attach stirrups around the two black knobs in the rear. Secure the
top part around the knobs, and adjust the length of
the stirrups (see p.8).
8. Install clamps on each side of the knuckle and then leg ring seat pg. 8
9. Ready to start rolling: See p.8 to get your pet in the wheelchair.

Note: The knuckle should be at the center of your pet's hip. The front of the
extender should be at shoulder blade. You should have a few inches in back
of the rump for elimination (pee and poop).

measurement
Measure your pet from
armpit to rump
Width
To set the width of the wheelchair frame to the correct size, measure your pet’s
chest, and then add 1/2 inch to this measurement; the width of the wheelchair
frame should be set to this size.
If the width needs to be adjusted, unscrew the rear knobs counterclockwise
until the back connector comes off, being careful not to lose the small washers
that are inside the knobs.
Line up the back connector with whichever holes will give
you the width measurement you need. Make sure the back
connector is installed on the outside (behind) the wheel-
chair frame.
Screw the knobs onto the outside of the back connector,
making sure to put each washer in between the knob and
the back connector. Tighten the knobs.
Height
Take your pet’s leg measurement (rear leg height); this should match the
measurement from 2 inches below the frame to the ground. Adjust your
strut to match your pet's measurement.
You can make this adjustment by unscrewing the knob on each knuckle a
few turns, and then sliding the blue strut up to reduce the height, or down to
increase the height. Then tighten each knob.
Note: Put your palm on the inside, over the knuckle, for easy movement of struts.
Length
The knobs that are located on the
knuckle hold the struts and side
extenders in place. Measure your
pet from armpit to rump. Make that
measurement match the measure-
ment from an inch behind knuckle
to the front end of each side
extender, as shown below.

your pet's
measurement.

Attaching the Leg Rings and Clamps
Aer you have the wheelchair adjusted for your pet, you can now install the
Leg Ring Clamps. These will prevent the leg rings from sliding forward. You
will attach 4 Leg Ring Clamps to the frame, 2 on each side of the knuckle.
1. Determine if you need the double wide or the single clamp. One bar
requires single, two requires the double. (See photos below.)
2. Place clamp over frame with hole on outside of frame.
3. Rock the clip back and forth with a downward motion. Make sure the
lip on the outside of the clip is under the frame.
4. Slide le or right to lock into place. The (4) clamps should be close to
the knuckle.
5. Feed the wire of the leg rings through the top of the hole then wrap
the wire securely around the frame. The leg rings are the rear support
system for your pet. The coated wires need to be positioned on either
side of each knuckle, making sure the foam leg rings look like two
back-to-back letter Cs.
Note: The Leg Rings should hang 2-3” below the wheelchair frame,
making sure the piece in the middle is connected to the foam tubes.

Stirrups
If your pet's legs are paralyzed, use the stirrups to hold his/her legs off the
ground. The top end of each stirrup is secured around each back knob. The top
ball lock is used to hold each stirrup in place, and the bottom lock ball is secured
above the hock.
Ready to Start Rolling?
1. Leg Rings: Pick up your pet and set him/her into the Leg Rings. Each leg
goes inside the ring. The abdomen will rest on the middle Velcro piece
holding the rings together. The rear toe pads should touch the ground.
Use stirrups if pet's legs are paralyzed.
2. Front Harness: Unclick the blue and black strap,
and leave the harness attached to the front knobs.
Set pet’s front legs in front of the red strap on the front
harness. Take the blue strap over the back and clip in
place. Put the black strap in front of the chest and clip in
place. Adjust all three straps so they are snug. Tuck the
excess strapping into the black comfort sleeves.
3. For intact male dogs, we want the center connector to
be just in front of the testicles and behind the penis. This will give him full
support while keeping him comfortable and allowing him to go to
the bathroom.
Watch video starting at 6:20 minutes/seconds for putting your pet into wheel-
chair: https://youtu.be/6bppcizle3s
Note: If you need to wash the harness at some point, you can remove it by un-
screwing the knobs on each side, and then removing the screws and washers.
Wheel Sizes
Your wheelchair will come with either 2” or 4” wheels attached to the struts.
The wheels are all-terrain and will not puncture. If they eventually wear out,
you can buy replacements: www.WalkinPets.com/spare-parts

Walkin’ Wheels Mini Front Wheel Attachment
Purchased Separately
The Walkin’ Wheels Front Wheel Attachment gives mobility to dogs with front
leg weakness or weakness in all four legs. It is ideal for helping disabled pets
get exercise and for rehabilitation while they are healing. Like the rest of the
Walkin’ Wheels products, the Front Wheel Attachment is adjustable, so it will
fit the Walkin’ Wheels wheelchair for any size dog from 2 to 10 pounds and
can easily be removed at any time.
Note: Your dog’s rear leg height measurement determined the Front
Wheel Attachment size you received.
