Witha ferret wheelchair two things are absolutely essential:
They must support almost the entire back which many dog ones do not do.
They must deal with ferrets trying to move sideways without toppling (a problem with wheels that do not rotate).
Small and light casters can be useful.
Here is a video of a ferret using a ferret flyer but I am not sure that they are any longer made so scroll and use the ordering information in the URL below the video one:

If you use doggon you WILL need the front extender, too:
