Absolutely. Our support system is uniquely designed to allow pets to be able to urinate and defecate freely while in their cart.
Small pets like Corgis, Dachshunds, and Pugs can lay down with the front end while in our rear support wheelchairs because they are low enough to the ground to not put any pressure on the back. Larger breeds cannot lay down as they would put too much of an angle and strain on the back; however our cart design allows pets to be taken in and out of the cart in a matter of seconds.
We guarantee our wheelchairs to fit. Although they are custom built specifically for your pet they will be adjustable in all directions. We also evaluate everything carefully before starting production and will notify you if we have any concerns about your measurements. In the rare event you’re unable to adjust it to fit, we will send you what’s needed to make it fit.
We typically try to build and ship in 1-2 business days after we receive the completed order but this can vary on how busy we are. We recommend contacting us to verify our current lead time.
Yes, our wheelchairs are fully adjustable in height, length, width and even the support system can be adjusted to your pet’s individual needs. Every cart is built specifically for the individual pet and guaranteed to fit.
K9 Carts stands apart because we are the only company with a background in orthopedic medicine. Our carts were designed with decades of research in the medical field and our professional staff are here to help you. Buying your wheelchair from K9 Carts ensures your medical device for your pet is built and tested from a medically based company.
We offer shipping methods via FedEx and through the Post Office. Our wheelchairs ship from our shop in Florida. Ground shipping takes 2-6 business days, depending on where we ship to. Priority Mail usually takes 2-3 business days. If you need the wheelchair by a certain day we recommend contacting us directly so we can help assist with choosing the best method.
We have a comprehensive warranty for one year on the entire cart with any part replaced if needed. We also offer a lifetime warranty on the frame against any defects.
We offer a 15 day trial period for a 70% refund which is plenty of time to test the cart and send us pictures for evaluation. It’s extremely rare for a pet to reject their K9 Cart unless it’s improperly fit, they’re in pain, have no desire to be active, or weakness on their forelimbs in which case front support can be added. We always recommend doing our towel test before ordering a wheelchair as this will usually give you a good indication of how they will do in our rear support cart.
Yes. We recommend contacting us directly to find out our current build time. We can also help with special Saturday delivery on packages that are shipped on a Friday.
Yes, our front support kit can be added at any time down the road with no additional measurements needed.
The foot slings are included with every wheelchair. These are for paralyzed pets that have no use of their rear legs. Every part needed for your cart is included in the box.
Some pets can handle going down a step or two without having any issues as long as they have strong forelimb strength. To get up steps, you simply grab the back of the cart to help lift the wheels over the step. We recommend building a ramp for 3 steps or more.

Our family is so appreciative that we ordered a K-9 cart for what would be the last 3 months of our beloved Mr. Kidd's life. We had hesitated given his unknown life expectancy due to a splenic tumor diagnosed last November and not knowing how he would accept it. The cart was easy to set up and easy to place Mr. Kidd(a Corgi) into, so he used it several times daily. What a joy to see him walk again(he had lost use of his rear legs and was dragging himself)! The cart also enabled him to pee and poop with dignity and helped with hygiene. We and he enjoyed these last few months so much more due to having a K-9 cart and would readily recommend to anyone considering it.

Awesome. The first 5 minutes we were wondering but Tika figured it out. Actually Tika went for a one mile walk on a icy road. Thank you so much for all your help before we purchased the wheels.

Our adopted eleven year old Border Collie mix was diagnosed with degenerative myelopathy. His walks were reduced to about one block and were on grass only. About six weeks ago we purchased a K9 Carts' rear support wheelchair. It is not uncommon for him to now do walks of up to a mile and a half. What has amazed us the most is that his attitude and energy level have changed dramatically. Thanks to K9 Carts, he is once again the leader of the pack with the energy of a puppy. We realize this is a degenerative disease but, at this point in time, we have an energetic happy dog back. Thank you so much for your expertise, assistance and high quality products.

William has taken to his new wheels and as you can see, a picture says a thousand words. Thank you so much and thank you for your wonderful customer service!

My 13 year old boxer started having walking issues after a minor surgical procedure that required anesthesia. He rolled around the yard the first day we got the new wheel chair. We do not use the chair inside yet. It's a little wide for inside. He gets frustrated inside hitting things. Outdoors he can explore the yard again. We use it to walk around, potty and get some fresh air.
