3d Modeling of Ergonomic Scooter for Handicapped Dog

Published on the March 31, 2025 in Engineering & Manufacturing

About this project

Open

We are looking for an experienced 3D modeling freelancer to design a customized ergonomic indoor scooter for a Dachshund dog (Charlie), who recently underwent spinal surgery and is currently experiencing partial paralysis. The scooter should be based on a 3D scan of Charlie to ensure optimal ergonomic fit, proper spinal alignment, and comfortable positioning.

Key features we need:

Base structure optimized to support and comfortably accommodate Charlie’s pelvis and hind legs.

Integration of a pivot or rotating axis to allow Charlie to comfortably shift into a resting position on his side without compromising spinal alignment.

Future compatibility for adding padding and wheels.

The design should be scalable and adaptable for potential future sales to other pet owners with similar needs.

Project overview

We are inspired by existing products like the one shown here: https://ecdveterinaria.com/producto/scooter-con-bolsa-de-arrastre/?srsltid=AfmBOop0p2bzr411Bu-v5xx1K6p9omGKYF1FbRXAxAN1BD6rsAo6pXgE and https://walkinpets.com/blogs/blog/the-walkin-scooter-indoor-pet-mobility-solution?srsltid=AfmBOoq-fstaLwQBrc65ezXCIbLQuhy6HBhlRlNAk6KPuEWX_XlsLR9d. The goal is to create a highly functional, comfortable, and easily manufacturable product. We aim to use the completed model for prototyping via 3D printing and potentially mass production to help other pets and pet owners.
