@diggydagg We’re so lucky that Tyrion loves his wheels! Not all dogs do unfortunately. Some feel too awkward or uncomfortable to even take a few steps. I feel really really lucky that T jumped into his and started zooming immediately 😍

First Moments Of Joy
Tyrion’s delight is unmistakable—even before he tries on his very first wheelchair. As his dog mom brings it over, he eagerly drags his paralyzed hind legs to meet her, eyes full of anticipation.
