Pack Of Disabled Dogs In Wheel Carts Play Fetch On Their Walk

Aug 31, 2020

A few things are more entertaining than dogs playing with sticks or balls and beanbags. A 2014 video of disabled dogs on wheel carts playing with a stick surfaced online, and it is heart-warming.

In the video, the majority of the dogs are disabled and on wheel carts, but a few are not. All the dogs are playing fetch and even the disabled dogs have an equal chance of snatching the stick. These dogs are under the guardianship of Gritta Goetz. She seems to have fun with the dogs as she is eager to keep throwing the stick for them to play fetch.

Goetz is an animal expert who works at an animal sanctuary located in Lanzenhainer, Germany. According to E!, so far, she has rescued eight dogs, most with disabilities, and gave them a home, love, and care. These dogs have found a home and a family in Goetz, and she has found a way to express love in them.

She always walks the dogs in the field where they can experience nature and have enough space to play and have fun. Talking about the dogs, she said that one dog is the leader of the rest, and this is the dog that always holds the stick.

The leader of the pack seems to be empathetic of the dogs on wheel carts as he lets them have the stick when they play fetch. The dogs on carts are fast enough to compete with the others. Most of the time, they end up getting the stick.

The smallest disabled dog in the pack might look like he is disadvantaged, but he is as fast and fierce as the other dogs. When this small dog gets the stick, he protects it with so much energy that even the leader will not dare get close to him.

Gritta goes everywhere the dogs go during the walk. Over time, she has learned the language of the dogs and they have learned to listen to her. One of the small dogs is slow to catch up with the others during the play, but Gritta is seen urging the dog on.

The dogs are a family, and as they play fetch, they bark in excitement. It is the beauty of the dog on wheel carts that make the video interesting. These dogs have the energy of the other dogs and they probably have as much fun as them.

Gritta is always talking to them as she throws the stick. Then she follows them to throw the stick again, and the game continues.

All the dogs, disabled or not, appear healthy, and it appears that Gritta feeds them well to keep them in good shape. Because these are dogs rescued from the streets, there is no single breed, but a mix of different breeds having fun with a stick. The guardian ensures that the dogs have as much fun as possible by taking them for a walk in a field with less traffic and distractions.

This way, the dogs can run at full speed along the path without having to stop for passing traffic as would be in the park. Isn’t that cute?

The walk in the field is a sweet moment for the dogs, the guardian, and the viewers. It is also a reflective moment for the viewers, seeing the group of dogs have fun regardless of their disability. Viewers just can’t get enough of the fun. It is entertaining, inspiring, and simply heart-warming.
