My baby is 3yrs old and needs surgery to put a shunt in the cyst in his brain and to also fix his C1-C2 in his neck. I ask you to help save him because he saved me. OSU Vet hosp. Merley Moo Sikorski.
Why......because your dog is able lto walk
My little daughter Yorkshire had surgery for a herniated disc and is now in rehabilitation, she still can't stand or walk but this is a good idea to motivate her. It has been 24 days since her operation but I am confident that she will recover🥺
I'm sorry and I pray she will pull through this. 🙏💞🙏
Why are these adults laughting at the dog, its so rude and ignorant.
Obviously you have no clue what is going on. May God be with you and help you understand. 🙏💞🙏
Boss can you tell me how about the detail and size pipe because my dog is 15years old leg no Power 😂 how to make how long how many saiz about the product you make...
Just measure your dogs length and width of your dog and make it a little longer and wider. God bless 🙏💞🙏
A walker for dogs 😁
R.I.P Merley Moo. We sure miss you.
Just saw this. Yes he is and I miss him everyday. 😢
Kill it with fire
I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved Merley! I know how heart breaking it is to loose a fur baby as I have lost three yorkies over the years and it still makes me so sad. Could you possibly put a picture of your homemade doggie wheelchair without the doggie- looking down from the top so we could see how the straps are placed? I would so appreciate it as my daughter yorkie has a pinched nerve in her front left leg and a slipped disk. She needs to learn to walk all over again. Thank You So Much
I just used velcro and some inside shoe cushions for comfort but he also wore a diaper that helped with the cushion. I can't take his wheelchair out because I have everything of his put away. I do appreciate your comment, yes it was awful and very painful to lose my son as I know you know. I hope you are able to make one, it really wasn't that hard. I just measured him both length and width and made it a little longer and wider. I used rollerblade wheels on the rear after the video because it moved a lot easier. In the front I used wheels like would go on a lightweight dresser or something like that. I'm sorry I didn't see this message earlier but you tube don't let me know when I get a comment. Thank you and God bless 🙏💞🙏
Of all such videos, I don't know why I love this the most. Like I've watched it over and over and just never getting bored with it. Love love love
Thank you. It really means a lot to me. I still cry everytime I watch it. Some are still sad cries because I lost him in Jan of 2020 but some are happy cries because of how much he loved it. He was such a special little boy and thank you so much for watching his video.❤️ God bless 🙏💞🙏
@@kimsikorski5691 oh baby... So sorry about your loss. He seems like such a sweet boy. The laughs in the video are so healing too... May he rest in peace. He's surely missed. 💓 God bless you too, dear.
@@rosieking383 do you mind if I ask you a question? If not, did you see his video on my you tube channel or does someone else have his video using it? The only reason I ask is that it has gotten a lot of views and I would think that if someone was see in it on my you tube channel that they would also want to watch the one of him singing. He just loved to sing and it is very sweet to watch and listen to. But yeah I was just wondering if someone else is using his video. Thank you again and I mean that from the bottom of my heart. ❤️
So cute
Thank you
I need one of these for my pit mix that was born with cerebellar hypoplasia. He's good about running around outside, but can't do much inside because of the smooth surfaces (tile and hardwood floors). Do you have plans/instructions to make this wheelchair?
I'm sorry to hear about your special one. When I made the wheel chair I just made it by my head. I just went to Lowes and or Manards to buy the plumbing that I needed and just measured how wide he was and long he was. I ended up using roller blade wheels on the back because it made it a lot smoother with them having wheel bearings in them. Being your special boy is a lot heavier then my little Merley Moo was I would say you could use the metal plumbing to hold his weight and if you have the money you could even buy aluminum tubing to make it some what lighter. I'm sorry I didn't get back to you sooner but YT don't let me know when I get a comment on any of Merley Moos videos. I hope this is able to help a little if you haven't already figured out how to make one. But they also make slip on rubber sock/shoes that you could buy to put on him that would give him grip on your floors. That would also be a great thing to try. I hope all goes well. God bless 🙏💞🙏
I noticed you left a message on a video about Raynaud's disease - SO I want to share this with all people with this problem. I have for some years suffered with Raynaud's disease. I AM ABSULUTELY SURPRISED I have found great relive by listening to this video sound frequency. TRY IT ruclips.net/video/qMOAI1uNBo0/видео.html
It’s PERFECT!!! My dog is 14 years old, Baby (little black Pomeranian) and this would be perfect for her! She and I share the same pain almost exactly. Both our neck, shoulders, hips, ankles and knees hurt! Become swollen, and stiff, it becomes a struggle. I can still walk around being only 40 years young!! Lol But ...Baby falls, stumbles and it’s heartbreaking!!! I pick her up from now and then (...when I MYSELF, have to ability that day) (back and neck) ...we also both wear a brace. How did you make it! Well I’m definitely going to try it! Thanks for sharing this clip. Go go go!!! Little yorkie!
I just made it by how big he was and went a couple inches loner and wider out of PVC pipe and caster wheels but then put Rollerblade wheels on the back because they had bearings in them which made it much easier to move. I used velcro to hold his weight because he didn't weigh much but had pads on them and he wore a diaper because he loved to pee and he would know when he would get it out and go have a lot of fun. Lol But unfortunately I lost my sweet boy in January. It's been really hard. I hope this will be able to help your little loved on. God bless 🙏😇🙏
Do you have instructions on how you built this unit for your pup. My pup has no mobility in his left leg so he falls over all the time, this would be perfect for him.
To be honest I had no plans I just measured him to get the length but went a little longer then what he was and made it about 2 inches on each side but I used PVC pipe like you would use for water lines. They make all different sizes of PVC and this was the smallest that they had. I used wheels like would be in a chair that turns and then replaced the rear wheels with Rollerblade wheels because they had bearings in them which made it a lot easier for him to move it For to hold him up I took velcro that was sticky on one side and stuck it to the PVC pipe then used other velcro to go from one side to the other so it would support his weight. I had one in the front and one in the back. Then I put something soft between them so it wouldn't hurt his stomach. But he also wore a diaper most of the time because with all of his health problems he loved to pee. I don't think the health problems to be this way, he just really enjoyed peeing. Lol. So this way he got to pee all he wanted with out making a mess. But I lost my special boy in January and still miss him so much today. I hope you are able to make one for your special boy. God bless 🙏💞🙏
Rest in peace my special boy
Rest in peace my special boy
we die?
@@danielcanastra2781 unfortunately he passed away January 9th 2020. This year really sucks from the first day it got here. 😢
@@kimsikorski5691 sorry for that. when is baby he crys?
Rest in peace my special boy.
Kim Sikorski, I’m sorry for your loss. I am very inspired by your video. I’m not that handy but would like to try to build something similar for my Cooper who is 17+ years old. His legs are weak so I would like to give him some support. Would you mind telling me what the diameter is of the PVC pipe and how you attached what looks to be swivel caster wheels? Thank you.
@@margaretl.4935 It depends on how heavy your special boy is. Merley moo was 3 pounds so I used I'm pretty sure 1/2 inch pvc pipe but it might have been 1/4 inch pvc pipe but I just measured him so I could get the length and width. The caster wheels I put dowrod up inside the connector of the pvc pipe and drilled a hole then pushed the metal part of the caster wheel up into the wood. Not to long after that video I put roller blade wheels on the back to make it alot smoother and easier for him. I have all of his special stuff put away and Im not able to look really at to much of his stuff with out losing it. I miss him so much and thank you for your kind words and I hope you are able to build one for you little baby. God bless 💞
Kim Sikorski, thank you. It was an ingenious design. So much love went into it. Please be safe.
Sorry for your loss. 🌻❤️
@@jennifergordon80 thank you, I really appreciate it more then you know. God bless 🙏💞🙏
Rest in peace my special boy.
Sorry for ur loss what a cute Yorkie 😢
@@ckemimire3657 thank you. It was very great loss. I miss him everyday. God bless 🙏💞🙏
That is awesome! Hope he is doing great!! I was hoping you might list the materials needed for this wheelchair ? I have a 6 pound chiwawa and he feel off r v stairs and can hardly use his front right leg and I would like to buld a model like yours to rehab him.Surgery costs around 5000 dollars. He has pain meds and muscle relaxers and anti inflammatories...But not helping use his right leg. I would greatly appreciate your help!
Sorry I didn't see this earlier but you tube don't inform me if I get a coment. Which I wish they would. But I used PVC pipe, wheels off of like an office chair but then I changed the rear wheels to roller blade wheels that have good bearings and nus velcro straps for the harness for his body with some padding on it and then the velcro on the sides so the harness to hook to it and be adjusted. I hope you were able to make one for yourself and I'm sorry I didn't get back to you sooner and thank you for hoping that he's doing okay but he has a lot of health problems and isn't doing too good but he's still a fighter and I love you more than anything thank you and God bless and I hope your little one does great also
Omg this gives me hope for my girl. We’re at that point where her quality of life has gone down dramatically without mobility so some hard decisions can’t be put off much longer to see how she does. I really want to try the wheelchair route as a last effort though because she deserves it. Do you have the build plans or just a lot of photos you wouldn’t mind sharing? I’d appreciate it SO much.
Sorry I just seen this RUclips doesn't let me know when I get a comment I hope that your little one is okay but now I did it all for my head I just measured on how big he was and I use PVC pipe and then wheels off the bottom of like an office chair but then I change the back wheels two wheels from a roller blades but yeah it wasn't that hard to make and I hope that you're able to do it and that you didn't have to make that decision because I know that decision is an awful decision to have to make and I pray that God takes my sweet boy because I know that decision will kill me thank you and God bless
Don’t give up hope! There’s always something that can change or other options. This is a good one. I’m definitely going to try it.
Jennifer Gordon unfortunately my little one didn’t take to it. I did build it and it was easy to do! I don’t regret it for a second because I know I tried absolutely everything for her before she gave up. And she really did let me know she was done. She had spunk and fight in her for quite a while but there came a point when you could tell she was done and just didn’t want to anymore. She had a great last day where she ate a big juicy cheeseburger and relaxed in the sun outside with me and we opted to give her a sedative at the appointment as well. So she went very peacefully and that’s all I wanted for her. I guess my take away is do it. Try it, but when their done, as much as it hurts, give them that last gift if that’s what they’re communicating that they want. Good luck ❤️
I'm building one for our Jack Russell. What did you use for the body support?
Velcro straps, then I taped padding where his chest and y would be. I hope yours turns out great and your little one enjoys just as much as my little merley moo. 💞
Nice simple harness but I think he would have a lot less difficulty in running round the house if you downsized the harness considerably. He`s a tiny tich but this harness would fit Lalabrador.
Thanks for the commet but this was the only way to do it. Its not a harness, its just straps of velcro with a little bit of padding on the top. Thank you and God bless💞
How do you determine specific height needed per dog? And what did you use for a sling? I have a tiny 4lb yorkie poo that has weakness in all 4 limbs but can still somewhat use them. Balance is his issue so if he can be held up right, he could walk. When he falls, he cannot get,himself back up. I need to make the sling cushioned and comfortable for him even if all he can do is stand in it and not walk. All he does now is lay dawn. This is our last resort at quality of life. He deserves this chance.
I'm sorry about your little one. You tube never gives me a heads up when someone messages on his videos. But when I made the wheel chair /walker I just did it all out of my head and my brain never stops. But you want the chair to hold them up a tad because like your little one my little Merley Moo has issue also with not have the strength in his legs due to a lot of health issues. But I took the pic pipe and just dry fitted every thing and made it longer or taller and just cut it down what it should be to be what he needed. They make a lot of really nice wheel chair / walkers that you can purchase but they cost quite a bit of money but it I had the money I would have spent it in a heart beat. But they make them adjustable for the height and the length. But if you have to make one like I did just make it a little longer and taller and put it together and cut off what you need to cut off But what I used for the sling are those velcro strip so I could adjust the height from the floor and how much weight would be on his legs. Then I had them covered with pads that people put in their shoes to make it soft but where he wears a diaper it helped a lot also with the comfort. I hope your little one is still doing ok and if you need anymore information just hit the like button and you tube will let me know of someone likes something but not a message. You tube is kinda goofy. Lol Thank you and god bless.💕
@@kimsikorski5691 my sweet boy passed away a month ago from his issues :(
@@cmkgang1 im so sorry to hear that. 😔 God bless him and one day you will see him again and he will be waiting with a kiss for you. God bless.💕
👏🏽
What happen to your dog maam??
Sorry just saw this. But he has a lot of health problems but he is a fighter. 😊
Hi. Where did you buy supplies? I’m having a hard time finding my tiny dog a wheelchair that’s not heavy for her , this 4 wheelchair looks like it would be just perfect for her!
You can buy they plumbing at Lowe's or Manards. Probably any home improvement store. Use bigger plumbing for a bigger dog and this size for a smaller dog. Works just as good as a few $100 wheel chair that you would have to buy special made. Hope you were able to figure something out. I didn't see your comment till just today. For some reason you tube doesn't tell me when someone comments or likes his videos. But I hope all is well with you and your special bot or girl🐶🐕 god bless.💕
I was wondering if you made the top horizontal bar a little shorter if it wouldn't be better for turning and not getting her head stuck. Maybe not, but an idea. ????
We thought the same and tried a few different widths, but it didn't really make a difference. He just didn't want to walk straight. lol

Should do a DIY I need this ! For my little dog it’s so cute seeing your dog run around happily lol
Just saw your comment. For so.e reason I don't get notifications. But It Is actually very simple. It is all made with pvc pipe, wheels that would go under an office chair and I changed the back wheels to roller blade wheels that way they had a bearing in them and it is a lot easier for him to get going and enjoy him self even more. Thank you for you interest and watching his video. Did you happen to watch the one where he is singing? I love him more then words can say. God bless.💕 and u hope you can make one for you little one. You just need to make it longer then him and wider. If you need help I probably could help you but I don't know when I get messages for some reason. But I will.check back and see if you even have gotten this message. Thank you and god bless.💕
Kim Sikorski its fine we actually have been planning to buy one but the DIY one seems like a fun thing to try !! So will do and thanks for the advice and is the singing a newer video ? I think ive watched all of yours ! (: haha have been subscribed for a bit now
osiris no its not a new video. But it is to cute. I think if I put the title under yorkie singing it would have gotten more views. But I was hoping that people would want to help him as in donating to help him get the surgery he really needs. But nothing like that has happened but he's a fighter and things aren't as good as they were but I can't give up hope that a miracle might come through. Thank you for subscribing to see merley moo. 😊 I hope your able to get one made or bought for your little one. This was the first day in his wheel chair and I think he did excellent. He caught on in a heart beat. Thank you again😊 god bless.💕
A simple and effective walker for Merley. Good job!
This was so cute. I have a Lhasa that needs one of these so I'm going to try to make him one too. I'd love for my guy to be able to have as much fun as Merley moo is having again. Great video. I laughed through the whole thing. Thanks for sharing.
B Day your so very welcome. He gives me smiles and laughs ever day even though he has so many health problems. He's a very special boy. Thank you so much for watching his video and leaving you wonderful comment. God bless 💕
I was wondering what did you use for the sling part?
Marianne Krause just saw your message. I used velcro and taped shoe pads on top of it for more comfort. Thank you for liking it so much. He brings me joy and happiness everyday. God bless.💕
I was wondering if you have gotten yours made yet? If you need any help just ask. But for some reason I don't know that people reply to merley moo's videos and I don't know how to make it work. But good luck to you and I was wondering if you watched his video of him singing? He's such a special boy. I love him very much and then some but if you haven't take time to watch it. He knows how to turn each one of them on and he loves to sing with him. Especially when he's feeling better. God bless.💕
