Howllo Fellow Hound and bassets needing wheels lovers: I just received this e-mail from Devon and I am putting it right up. Here is the original e-mail that was received: I don’t know how Devon got it, and I do not recall seeing it on the drool, but I wanted to post it.

Hi,
I have a 8 year old basset hound who can’t walk, he has had 2 back surgeries since 2005. the first one was nov. 2005 and the sec. one was in 2007 its been over a year and he still can’t walk. didn’t know if there was anybody who doesn’t used theres anymore i would gladly take them off your hands he is dragging his self around and styarting to get sores on him. i would be able to pay a little or aleast pay the shipping, he weighs about about 60 pounds and can still move his legs he can’t hold himself up we walk him with a strap and it takes a lot out of me when we go for walks. If there is anybody out there please call me at 724-462-9030
Thank you so much .
