@jlssurplus Motorized scooter to walk the dog? Well, that's good to know. I have just recently hired a woman to walk my Beagle. Problem is, he doesn't want to leave me. He walks 10 steps, sits and turns around looking for me. So now, what we do is, and I kid you not, I get in my car and drive in front of him and the dog walker and they follow me. Then I turn around and come home, and they follow me back. Talk about nuts!! I wondered if there was some vehicle I could ride/drive and walk him with. I'll look into a motorized scooter. I have 2 Bassets and one Beagle. The Beagle is the one who is too fat so he needs to walk. Not sure what MILD procedure is but I'll google it. Thanks for responding and good luck to you, too!
