Noodles Finds New Mobile Life in Wheelchair

Meet handsome smooth chocolate and tan 'Noodles,' who hails from Colorado Springs, Colorado. Three years ago, he herniated a disc, but now the agile 7-year-old has adapted to life beautifully thanks to his doggie wheelchair.

"He got so used to it. He's so mobile he'll back up, he'll go under stuff and turn around and spin. He goes out there and chases cats in the neighborhood," said George Bauer, Noodles' owner.
Before finding a new ride, the Bauers thought they may have to put Noodles down.

Read all about the inspirational Noodles and see another pic in a nice story at the Colorado Connection.

Learn about dachshunds and Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD) at Dodger's List. What a great resource. There's always a link to Dodger's List in the links column on your right. They have a very active discussion list, and are real pros when it comes to offering advice for IVDD dachshunds and general dachshund health.
