TV ACRES: Dogs > Retriever > Speedy the dog (The Drew Carey Show)

Initially, Speedy's hind legs were supported by a tiny wheeled cart that helped the dog get around his Cleveland home, but later in the series Speedy was seen walking on all fours.

Drew got his dog from Lisa, his former girlfriend. When she broke off the relationship, Drew asked if he could keep her dog. She agreed.

On the March 3, 1999 episode Speedy takes part in clinical trials for canine cataracts at DrugCo pharmaceutical and disappears. Drew and friends break into the creepy facility to rescue the pooch and discover the center's manager (Charles Nelson Reilly) stole the dog to be his companion and Frisbee partner.
