I love this harness! We can easily lift our 15 year old pup without causing her pain from her degenerative nerve disorder. The soft fabric and comfort enables us to leave it on her most of the time. We also use it to lift her in and out of her wheelchair and can leave it on her during her wheelchair walks. It has really made a huge difference in helping her stand up and walk during outside potty breaks as well. I highly recommend it.
Terrific problem solver for helping my dogs arthritic backend getting upstairs. Soft on his privates easy to use. Sizing could be more specific.
Unfortunately I wasn’t able to use this as I had to say goodbye to my boy shortly after receiving the product. That said, it does appear to be of good quality and would have been easy to put on. I am keeping this with a leash should I need it. A log of dogs gets dumped in my area (rural) and it may come in handy if I come across one that is injured.
The best purchase ever. I purchased THREE back legs sling before this until I finally bought this one recommended by the vet. This one also give space for peeing where as the other slings hid the private area so it would get soaked in pee. I highly recommend!!!!
Fabulous item and has worked for my dog perfectly!!!
We were having some issues that weren't addressed here on the chewy site so we did some searching and found that the manufacturer has its own site with helpful videos. Based on the photos here on chewy, we thought the handle length was adjustable. We were wrong. Handle length is not adjustable. However if you order from their website directly, you can request longer handles at time of purchase. We are glad we made the purchase and do recommend the product, but chewy's desciption should be updated to include the default handle length on the size you are ordering so you'll know if it's long enough before you purchase.
I was very happy when I saw the harness when ordered. Needed it for my pet. Waited anxiously to receive it. I am so disappointed in this harness. The strap is way too long. Does not have an adjustment at all. Way too big for a small.
This was exactly what I was looking for. My 16 year old Min Pin has arthritis in her spine and back legs and has trouble walking and balancing. This is the perfect thing. However, even though I ordered the smallest size it was still to big and bulky for her. She is less than 8 lbs. I was very sorry it did not fit. But I would recommend it anyway as it was sturdy but also padded well for comfort.
We found that the harness would not stay up on the hips. We had to get one that has a front and rear connected piece.
