adopting a dog in a wheelchair?
i am interested in adopting a dog in a wheel chair
i am completely comitted to doing research but not many websites have solid answers
so i am wondering what do you do differntly from a regular dog?
are all wheel chair dogs incontinante?
is it easier for a dog to have a front wheelchair or back one?
are there any rescues for wheel chair dogs in Canada?
is training really hard?
thanks to anyone who answers 
As a business myself and my partner financially supported a no kill dog shelter...on one visit my partner saw a dog who had been taken in having been thrown from the 12th floor from apartments ( broken back) this dog was chasing round dragging its legs and my business partner decided to bring it back and use our facilities to try to help it for 6-8 weeks...so ttouch, acupressure, hydrotherapy swimming etc this dog with all its injuries should have been PTS and the time, money and facilities could have been used more effectively to re-home several dogs......the dog stayed as it would never be re-homed and although my last choice would be to PTS I stand by that this should have happened...not only for it lack of life quality but also for our life quality.
Doubly incontinent, never ending expensive treatment and preventive work as muscles waste once you use a wheelchair so constant daily swimming, ttouch, pain relief.......sorry however rescuing such a disabled dog is not something I would ever be involved in again.....so think hard before you do this, no insurance company will insure and it becomes very expensive while emotionally you are involved the same as with any other dog, it is heartbreaking way of life with continual 'accidents' day after day, week after week, month after month and year after year, I did it for 9 years because someone failed to originally make a decision about PTS this very disabled dog when it first was 'rescued'.

German Shepherd Survives Train Collision - Now in Dog Wheelchair
How do you go about owner-training a service dog?
I recently got a one-year-old Pit Bull/Terrier. I'm also in a wheelchair, and was wondering if it was possible to train her (or have her trained) and get her certified to be a service dog. Does anyone know if this is possible-- legally and training-wise-- and if so, how I would go about doing it??
It's possible, but you might want to rethink using a Pit. I don't have anything against them and know several lovely and well trained Pits, but the reality is that they are banned in several areas and this presents a problem for a person with a disability and a service dog who may travel through such an area. A friend of mine trained a Pit service dog that was confiscated by animal control when he passed through a town with a breed ban. It took him over a month to get a hearing and have the judge order them to return the dog only to learn it had been euthanized within hours of being confiscated. So something to think about.
Once the dog is fully trained as a service dog, it does not matter who trained it. If the dog is trained to do things for his owner that the disabled owner cannot do for themselves because of their disability, then under the ADA it is a service dog, regardless of who trained it. HOWEVER, most states do not give access rights to trainers of service dogs and especially trainers who are not with recognized programs. This can present some difficulties if you live in a state that does not. It means you have to be creative with where you train and you have to be persuasive to convince non-food establishments to permit you to train there.
Last, but most importantly, is whether you actually have the necessary skills to train an advanced working dog. This is not the same as training a well-behaved pet dog. Here's an example: http://www.deltasociety.org/Document.Doc?id=170
It typically takes 18-24 months to fully train a service dog, and there's no guarantee a dog that starts training will be able to complete it. Most do not. You'll have to consider what you will do if this dog washes out. Will you rehome it and get another and try again? Will you keep this dog and will you be able to afford to try again with a second dog? Those are things that should be considered.
It is generally faster and less expensive to go through a program that trains service dogs. Here are some accounts of people who have owner-trained their own service dogs: http://servicedogcentral.org/content/node/224
