Catching up with the family































New Cart!

Barn2's old cart was from Uncle Park Ming. Barn2 can run quite well with it but since it is not his size ( Uncle Park Ming's previous corgi who has since passed on, was smaller in size)...it moves from side to side when Barn2 runs.
 
 
 
 
 
So Mummy got HAPPY WHEELS FOR DOGS to make one to fit Barn2's body.







 
 
 


 
Here he is with his new wheels! Thank you Uncle Mike of HAPPY WHEELS FOR FURKIDS.
 
THE GOOD:
It fits better. He doesn't shake from side to side. Since it is lower and closer to the ground, it is easier to put him on it and the two straps for his back legs are easier to handle than the old cart.
 
THE PUZZLE
 Barn2 does something he doesn't do as much when he has his old cart: he would rest on his front paws (as above) as often as he can.. instead of standing. Perhaps it is easier for him to do that with a lower cart.
 
THE CHALLENGE
To get him to walk with either carts. He wont walk unless there's food in front of him. Since it is easier for him to rest with the newer cart, he is more reluctant to move. With the older cart- he would either have to stand..or move around a bit more.
 
We are still trying to figure out how best to have him utilise both carts.
