@diggydagg is combating a common misconception about dogs with disabilities, including those with paralysis. Recently, the TikToker shared a video of her paralyzed dog, Tyrion, begging to go for a walk in the middle of her workday, and it’s just too pure. All dogs love their walkies, no matter what!
“I am just sitting at my desk trying to work, but Tyrion will not stop with this whining!” said Tyrion’s mom, Dagmar. “What do you need?”

As Tyrion walks over on his front legs to his mom, it’s clear what he’s asking for: a walk!
“Wanna go for a walk?” asked Dagmar. From there, the answer is blatantly obvious.
To prep Tyrion for his walk, his mom puts on his wheels. According to Dagmar, the doggie “loves his wheels” and will get the zoomies every time he puts them on!
After that, it’s time to head outdoors. After a “big jump” down a step, Tyrion is ready to rock. He runs ahead of his mom, clearly so proud of himself and incredibly happy, too.
We don’t deserve dogs. What a good boy.

“I’m Literally Gonna Cry”
The pure video has captured TikTok’s hearts. It currently has 3.7 million views, over 691,000 likes, 3,975 comments, and over 26,000 saves. People in the comments love the pup’s resilience,
“I love when the right people have pets 😭💖” wrote one TikTok user.
“He has his own license plate 🥺😂,” exclaimed someone else, commenting on the little license plate on the back of Tyrion’s wheels.
In the caption of the TikTok, Tyrion’s mom provided more context for the clip, explaining that many dogs with disabilities are still able to live full and fun lives.
“A very common misconception is that most paralyzed or disabled dogs don’t live good lives — they don’t go for walks as often, or go to the dog park, play roughly with furry friends, go for hikes or play at the beach. This simply isn’t true! Or at least, it doesn’t have to be in most cases,” wrote Tyrion’s mom. “Tyrion is still the same, energetic, happy dog he’s always been. Just like normal dogs, he whines while I’m working and begs for walks. And I’m grateful for it!”
