OCALA, Fla. — A precious pup named Mister Wiggles is getting a new chance to move around on his own — and now he needs a permanent place to call home.

Mister Wiggles was born with a spinal issue that affects his hind legs, making it difficult for him to maintain his balance while trying to walk.

Recently, Mister Wiggles received a dog wheelchair at the University of Florida Veterinary Hospital.

The new set of wheels has given him the mobility he was missing, allowing him to get around and enjoy his newfound freedom.

“He’s really wonderful, he has a great personality,” said Mister Wiggles’ caregiver Mallory Kleinsasser. “He doesn’t know that his legs don’t work, and if he does, he doesn’t show it.”

While Mister Wiggles is now mobile, his journey isn’t over.

He is still searching for a permanent home.

Anyone interested in helping Mister Wiggles or who knows someone who may be able to give him a home is encouraged to contact Quality of Life Rehab and Foster Inc. in Ocala.
