They hold the back legs off the ground and only have 2 wheels. Somewhat like a horse carraige but of course the dog pulls it but only uses his front legs and what he is pulling is his back legs.

its a cart. you can talk to your vet about it, or look on-line for “dog cart”. it will need to be specifically made for your dog, so see if your vet can help you before you buy anything on-line
Here is a really good site that might help you out. Good luck & give the lil guy some luvin!
doggie carts are a good idea. Dont worry about his feelings, he dosnt have human feelings. He only knows that he will be able to move alot easier with the cart than he can without.
Please ignore the idiot who is worried about humiliating the dog…if the dog has a great quality of life then you are doing the right thing.
I don’t think the other puppies will be pointing and laughing…idiot
http://www.brandnamepetsupplies.com/store/cat/healthcare/index.htm " is good, too. I have a sweet pup who had a spinal cord injury, she has recovered mostly (thank God), but I was prepared to do exactly what you are thinking about…I have seen many dogs live full and happy lives with carts.
Good luck!
I have seen a prefectly happy dog with these before but youve got to think of other factors, wil the dog find it difficult to adapt to this way of life? will it humiliate the dog (yes dogs can be humiliated and embarassed!) and will it be easier for you? would it be kinder to put the dog down?
