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.
