Hope Meets Faith in Velma, Oklahoma
Every year since 2005, Kathy Barton has conducted her signature “How do you teach compassion?” humane education program for her fourth grade class at the Velma-Alma School in Velma, Oklahoma.
The program has become a favorite part of the curriculum and something that the children anticipate the most about being fourth graders at Velma-Alma school.
Recently, HandicappedPets.com arranged for students at the Velma-Alma School to meet Faith the dog - the two-legged wonder that walks upright on her hind legs like a human being.
New Walkin' Wheels Instructional Video and User Manual
If you are contemplating the purchase of a Walkin' Wheels for Handicapped Pets dog wheelchair or if your pet is already using Walkin' Wheels, we invite you to view our newly updated instructional video to learn more and/or to determine if your dog is situated properly for optimal comfort and use.
Walkin' Wheels inventor Mark C. Robinson along with HandicappedPets.com team members Nancy and Jan along with their dogs Buster and Jake demonstrate how quickly and easily pet owners can fit and acclimate their dogs to using the wheelchair.
We also invite you to view our updated user manual that is also available for online viewing. The updated manual includes helpful Walkin' Wheels "Do" and "Don't" photos that demonstrate the proper positioning of the front and rear harnesses.

Handicapped Pets Foundation Helps Veteran
Eva is a faithful companion to her owner - a veteran who recently served two tours in Iraq. Facing financial difficulties and still awaiting compensation from the Department of Veterans Affairs, Eva's owner turned to the Handicapped Pets Foundation for assistance.
