custom wheels for Cody
A set of new custom wheels has given canine Cody a new leash on life.
The 9-year-old Siberian husky is unable to use his back legs due to neurological issues and back problems. Initially, owner Carol Ginoza of Kakaako took him out for walks in a stroller but noticed he still seemed sad. Then her veterinarian, Jamie Furutani of the Mililani Mauka Veterinary Clinic, fitted him with a rear-wheel cart from Eddie’s Wheels of Shelburne Falls, Mass. The company designs and manufactures “wheelchairs” for disabled pets.
“There was a huge difference,” Ginoza said. “He’s so much happier in the wheels.”
Furutani, a certified canine rehabilitation therapist, has fitted numerous dogs with the carts. It might take some tweaking and a few days for animals to adjust to the assistive device, but she has seen it do wonders.
