Fritz the dachshund is one dog who never gets tired going walkies- for he does it
Fritz the dachshund is one dog who never gets tired going walkies- for he does it on wheels. Watchdog Fritz hurt his back while having a go at the postman, and lost the use of his hind legs. But his master, Mr. Dennis Decunha, of Manchester, could not bear to have him put to sleep. Using roller skate parts, he fixed up a new rear carriage for Fritz. Now, when his pal, 10-year-old Stephanie Light takes him out she puts on her skates- and off they roll together.

EDITORS COMMENTS
Fritz the Dachshund: A Wheelie Good Companion". In this heartwarming photo print, we meet Fritz, a determined and spirited dachshund who refuses to let his disability hinder his love for walkies. After an unfortunate incident left him unable to use his hind legs, Fritz's devoted owner, Mr. Dennis Decunha of Manchester, came up with a remarkable solution. Using roller skate parts ingeniously repurposed into a rear carriage, Mr. Decunha created a unique set of wheels for Fritz. Now equipped with his very own mobility aid, Fritz is back on track and ready to hit the streets alongside his faithful companion Stephanie Light. Ten-year-old Stephanie proves that true friendship knows no bounds as she laces up her skates every day to accompany her four-legged friend on their adventures together. With smiles beaming from ear to ear, they effortlessly glide through Greater Manchester's streets in perfect harmony. This touching image captures not only the resilience and determination of one extraordinary dog but also showcases the incredible bond between humans and animals. It reminds us that even in challenging times, innovation and compassion can prevail. Join us on this nostalgic journey back to 1973 when Harold Walker immortalized this heartwarming tale of friendship and invention through his lens. Let it serve as a timeless reminder that love knows no limits when it comes to our furry friends.
