Radar is about 12 years old and is 1/2 Pom-1/2 Doxie. We bought him from a family friend For fun, he likes to be the boss! He was hurt 5 years ago from ice falling from the roof of a porch, he lost the use of his hind legs. We didn't want to put him to sleep because of our love for him. My oldest son who lives with me made a cart for him from a old baby buggy frame. He has been on wheels now since February 2004 and still going strong.

Cute little dog. His front looks a lot like mine.
Beautiful dog, so happy he has caring people who have enabled him to lead a loved and happy life. Best of luck, may he love long.
God bless you and your family! your son is very imaginative and caring to take the time to create the little cart for your dog. I'm sure the dog appreciates it. NOw he can get around and enjoy life!
How wonderful that this precious pooch has a loving family to take care of "all" his needs! Terrific story! Thanks for sharing it with us Thrifty Funners.
When even pets are considered "throw-away" by so many in our society, it is so heartwarming to see someone who loves their pet enough to go the extra mile. Thank you.
I have heard of animals having wheels before but what makes Radar's story so great is your family's love for him, your appreciation of a beings life and your son's ingenuity! God Bless You All! A huge thumbs up!
And I would be remiss if I didn't mention that I adore your babies name! He definitely has 'radar' to have chosen such a loving family to share his life with; I sincerely believe our pets choose us ;-)
Radar is one valiant pup! Your family is to be commended for giving him the means and the care he needs, along with a whole lotta love. You are truly one special family!

Hey Radar,
Good for you! You have a wonderful family that loves you so much. Glad to hear you have been going strong for 5 years -- hoping for so many more! May God bless you and everyone who surrounds you with so much love.
God bless you. What can I say that has not been expressed. We need more people like you that sincerely care for animals. Way to go.
Radar is a cute name for such a cute happy doggie. Your son should market those or at least contact the local vet and make some for him. What a great idea to make this to give Radar freedom to roam around.
