Back to the beach, the park and everywhere in between.
The Walkin' Wheels Medium is a fully adjustable rear-support wheelchair that gives mid-size dogs their freedom back. Lightweight, durable and quick to set up, it adjusts in height, length and width to become a perfectly fitted body extension. Dense foam wheels with a rubber outer won't puncture, clean up easily and handle all terrain, and the whole frame folds flat for the car. Suitable for dogs 12-22kg (26-49lb), with four rear leg heights for a precise fit. Dog heavier than 22kg? Message us on WhatsApp: larger rear configurations are available to order, and our Medium Quad covers 23-30kg with full support.
Rear support or full support?
A rear-support chair like this one is for dogs whose front end is still strong: they hold themselves up at the front while the chair does the work of weak or unsteady back legs. A full-support (quad) chair supports both ends, and is the better choice for dogs who are wobbly up front too, or living with a neurological condition. And here's the clever part: if your dog's front legs weaken later, you won't need a whole new chair. The Medium Front Wheel Attachment converts this rear chair into a full quad.
Is a wheelchair right for my dog?
A wheelchair gives dogs back their favourite thing: moving under their own steam. Owners choose one for hind-limb weakness, IVDD, degenerative myelopathy, arthritis, hip dysplasia, recovery after surgery, amputation, or simply the wobbles of older age. A few honest notes: introduce the chair gradually and supervise early sessions, your dog should be able to hold their head up comfortably, and dogs who are weak at the front as well usually need full support rather than rear-only. It's a tool that works alongside your vet's advice, not instead of it. Unsure? Ask us or your vet first; we'd rather help you choose well than sell you the wrong chair.

How it works
The chair arrives sized to the options you pick, then fine-tunes with simple push buttons: height, length and width all adjust in seconds, no tools needed. Your dog's back legs rest in soft, washable leg rings while the frame carries their weight, so they power along with their strong front legs and steer themselves wherever the sniffs lead. When the adventure's over, the frame folds flat for the car boot, and every fabric part goes in the wash.

Your questions, answered
Can my dog go to the toilet while in the wheelchair?
Yes. The chair is designed so wees and poos happen naturally without anything getting in the way, one of the first worries every owner has and one of the first things they stop thinking about.
My dog weighs more than 22kg. Which chair do they need?
For full support at 23-30kg, see our Medium Quad. For rear-only support in that range, message us on WhatsApp: the right frame is available to order. From 31kg upwards, choose the Large rear chair.
How long can my dog stay in the wheelchair at a time?
Start with short, supervised sessions and build up gradually as your dog gains confidence and fitness, following your vet's guidance. The chair is for active time: take it off for rest and sleep.
Will my dog need it forever, or can it help them recover?
Both happen. For some conditions the chair is a rehab tool that keeps muscles working during recovery; for others it's a long-term mobility aid. Either way, staying active helps maintain muscle tone, circulation and happiness.
Can it be used indoors and outdoors?
Yes, both. The puncture-proof foam wheels handle floors, pavements, grass, sand and trails. Indoors, just supervise early sessions while your dog learns their new turning circle.
What if I measure wrong or it doesn't fit?
The frame adjusts across a generous range, so small measuring wobbles are usually absorbed by the push-button sizing. If something's not right, message us on WhatsApp with a photo and we'll sort the fit together, backed by our fair, transparent returns policy.
Can I upgrade to full support later?
Yes. If your dog's front legs weaken over time, the Medium Front Wheel Attachment converts this rear chair into a full-support quad, no new chair needed.
How do I clean it?
All the fabric parts (leg rings, straps) are washable, and the aluminium frame and foam wheels wipe clean after muddy adventures.
