Our wheelchair attachment enables your dog lead to be attached securely to any wheelchair. They are heavy duty and have thick rubber backing to enhance grip.
Comes with clip attachment. This product does not include a lead as wheelchair sizes vary.
The attachment uses one-wrap velcro so should fit around most wheelchairs, simply cut off excess un-required velcro.
If you have an unusual wheelchair please get in touch with us as we can make these any size.
Wheelchair Dog Lead Attachment
While these are very secure, they are designed for dogs who walk on a loose lead.
- These are NOT for dogs that pull excessively.
- Avoid using a long length lead/leash as this could cause your dog or chair harm if the lead tangles your chairs wheels.
- Ensure your lead isn't too short that your dog can not manoeuvre obstacles, but not too long that your dog could be injured.
- Do not drag your dog in your chair by their lead.
- This product is not a toy, any signs of damage stop using immediately.
- Mountain trike chairs with their large front wheels may not be suitable for this product.
Training Information
Introduce your dog to this product slowly to ensure they understand their loose lead walking placement.
- Start by introducing your dog to your wheelchair slowly and reward generously for walking next to you in the position you require in a low distraction environment.
- Work on generalising this behaviour as you move around your space.
- Only attach your dog once you are confident they are comfortable around your wheelchair and reinforce the behaviour with generous rewards.
- Increase distraction level and work on generalising the behaviour.
Wuffable are not dog trainers, we can only suggest how to train the behaviour. We suggest working with a force free dog trainer who understands wheelchair loose lead walking.
