Walkin’ Pets started in 2001 out of a need to preserve the health and happiness of aging, injured, and disabled pets. Since then, we have partnered with over 300 different rescue organizations and sanctuaries to get these animals struggling with mobility back on their paws to keep them happy and healthy.
At Walkin’ Pets, we strive to make life easier for animals and their caretakers. We know that it can be more challenging to find forever homes for animals with special needs, so we work hand in hand with rescue organizations to ensure that the animals in your care are getting the support and tools that they need to live the highest quality of life possible.
Special needs animals have a lot of love to give, and we can help you to get them moving and smiling once again! Call our Rescue Department directly at 866-578-2926 or contact us for more information.
Featured Rescue of the Month
Rescue puppy Benjamin Bunny was born unable to walk, and was surrendered to Bosley’s Place, a Georgia-based rescue, at only two weeks old. By six weeks old, Benny grew strong enough to move in with his new foster family at The Tucker Farm. Foster mom Beth Williams explains that Benny has a difficult road ahead, but his Walkin’ Wheels wheelchair has given him some much-needed independence, mobility, and comfort. According to Beth, “Benny doesn’t seem to spend time feeling sorry for his handicap but delights in what he has.”
