Great help for big dogs with weak back legs

This is a simple solution for a complex problem. Helping a big, heavy old dog get in and out of a car is difficult. If their front legs can reach in the car, you can boost their back legs up with this sling. Eventually it won't be enough, but for the time being, it works.

Pros
  • Enables your pet to engage in activities that they may otherwise be unable to do
Cons
  • May not be effective for all types of mobility or stability issues

Inexpensive, soft, easy to use.

First, I love that the product arrived faster than expected. I have a 15 yr. old shepherd mix w/ arthritis who injured his back knee. I was using an old towel as support to take him outside. It was very uncomfortable for the poor guy. So getting the support harness in a timely manner was a blessing. It's comfortable for both of us and has adjustable straps so that my taller son can use it, too, without killing his back.Inexpensive, soft and comfortable, easy to use. I definitely recommend this…

Pros
  • Hip sling can be used for post-operative care
Cons
  • Could interfere with regular grooming or hygiene routines

A good investment for your aging friend

I bought this as a gift for my 13 year old friend Fergus MacHowl the Airedale, who has a lot of trouble with his hips. On those days when he's unsteady, I use it to help him get up and go outside. Usually he's stable after a few minutes and I can "unsling" him, especially when going down the porch steps.I'd say he likes it because he'll stop at the bottom of the steps when going back in and look at me, waiting for a re-slinging of his nether regions for a boost up the stairs. I'll give…

Pros
  • ADJUSTABLE HIP SLING - Our large-breed dog sling is here to assist your canine companions by preventing hip pain and injury caused by aging. Hip complications are a common issue with most medium to large dog breeds and left unmanaged can seriously impact your dog’s mobility and standard of living.
Cons
  • May not be compatible with certain breeds or body types

Simple and Effective

Our large 12 year old labradoodle geriatric onset laryngeal paralysis and polyneuropathy (GOLPP) and he is losing the use of his hind legs. The hind leg muscles are getting weaker and weaker. This simple "support harness" (from SGT KNOTS) has already proven itself very useful. I highly recommend it. There are very many other gadgets/straps/buckles/handles that are too complicated and uncomfortable. Hopefully, we'll be using SG KNOTS "support hardness" for a long time.

Pros
  • Easy to care for and clean
Cons
  • May require additional support or reinforcement for certain activities or situations

Looks well made and arrived quickly

This seems like a simple, comfortable, and easy to use assist for our lame dog that will soon be getting knee surgery. We hope the assist will serve as an extra precaution immediately post surgery when taking her outside to relieve herself. Four stars since we haven’t actually used it yet.

Pros
  • Offers additional security for your pet when walking up stairs or on slippery surfaces
Cons
  • May not be suitable for all ages or stages of a pet's life

Works great on my review.

I have used this for several months now on an 11 year old Mastiff to help give him stability going down stairs. He is a big boy but the sling has enough adjustment to get it to fit him. It has made both are lives easier as it gets used a couple times a day.

Pros
  • Cost-effective solution to assist with mobility
Cons
  • Could cause discomfort or irritation if not fitted properly or securely

WORKS GREAT!: my feedback

When I looked at the reviews of this product before purchasing it, there was some discussion that it might be too small for a large dog. Trust me, the strap handles expand sufficiently to put even a small horse into a car. Accordingly it works great on our 105 pound dog. It's really lessened the angst in getting him into our SUV.

Pros
  • Can help extend the life of your pet by reducing stress on their joints
Cons
  • Not suitable for all types of mobility or stability issues

A soft and quality product

This is a soft and quality product. We bought this for our 80 lb Great Pyrenees dog with two torn torn acl's so we could help her walk. The shortest the handles are works for me and I'm 5' 8". The sling works for very short walks but I personally cannot support this much weight with only one side of my body for longer walks.

Pros
  • Helps maintain your pet's dignity
Cons
  • May require additional training or conditioning to use effectively

Comfortable for Dog

This Pet Sling has been a life saver. Our Weimaraner has steadily been losing strength in her back legs. It’s almost impossible for me to support her body enough for her to walk.The sling is soft, a perfect width, and has adjustable straps. I can easily walk her now, and she is happy with it. Thumbs up!

Pros
  • Can be adjusted to fit your pet as they grow
Cons
  • Could potentially cause discomfort or irritation around the neck area

Great Seller and Product

We needed something to help our 75 lb lab who is having mobility issues during cancer treatment and who is unwilling to slow down from her usual lab activity. The harness is nice and soft and makes it easier to give her a little boost when she has to go up one or two stairs. We're still getting used to it and have not tackled large flights of stairs yet, but I feel confident that we will get there and when we do, it will be an improvement over carrying her up the stairs. The seller is quick…

Pros
  • Enables your dog to maintain its dignity and independence
Cons
  • Could become tangled or snagged during use

worked like a dream was able to support her and allow .

I purchased this for my elderly dog who needs help walking sometimes. Used it today as she was having trouble walking, worked like a dream was able to support her and allow her to walk without falling. Great product and is much more comfortable than some of the other product similar to this one. It is soft and forms to her body unlike others that are more rigid. Would recommend to other dog owners.

Pros
  • Attaches easily to your pet's body without causing discomfort
Cons
  • Could potentially cause muscle strain or other injuries during use

Glad I tried it again.

I had actually ordered this product before but my dog refused to work with me so I sent it back. This time she liked it better. It helped my back a lot as I don’t have to bend over to help her get on and off the couch as well as just helping her walk - she has advancedhip dysplasia . I highly recommend this product!

Pros
  • Can help your pet recover from an injury faster
Cons
  • Could be difficult to adjust or handle for some pet owners

comfortable and good quality

I liked the nice thickness of the sheepskin material -makes it very comfortable for my large golden retriever. We have not had to use it yet but I wanted it here as she had a day a week ago that she could not get her hind legs under her on a slippery wooden floor. the day is coming and I think this will work perfectly

A good product when your dog needs a lift

This is a perfect product if you have an old dog with feeble back legs, or one who is recuperating from leg or joint surgery. I have only used it for stairs so don't know how it works for walking across a surface. It is fast and easy to put around the belly and the padding is very soft, nothing that can chafe.

Pros
  • Provides extra support for large dogs with joint pain or injuries
Cons
  • May not be covered by insurance or reimbursement programs

Great support very straight forwar to use

Definitely is exactly what it says it is. A great well made support for your dog. Having said that if your dog is a male, the support goes on his belly and will get sprayed every time he takes a pee, in the other hand if your dog is a female the support is absolutely perfect for them.RS

Pros
  • Highly recommended by veterinarians
Cons
  • Could potentially worsen symptoms of certain health conditions or injuries

fine product but best in my review

This is a fine product, however I am 5'9" and my dog weights 85 lbs. I wish the handles were longer so I do not have to bend over when lifting her. I am afraid I will hurt my back.

Pros
  • Dogs
Cons
  • Not designed to prevent or treat underlying health conditions

Strong and fluffy! good for me

My dog loves this (could be that it was warm and fluffy) and it made it very easy to lift her during a time when she could not walk.She is 85lbs and it was strong enough to hold her weight without me thinking it was going to break.The only note I have is that if she was heading downstairs it slipped a little if you left it loose rather than gripping the sling tightly.Loved it and for the price it can’t be beaten.

Pros
  • B01E0FLT8C
Cons
  • Could slip or shift out of place during use

Great product, works exactly as described

This pet sling has been a lifesaver for us. Our 60+ pound dog loves to sleep on our bed but was unable to climb the pet stairs we purchased for him. The sling allows us to help him up,the stairs quickly and safely. Very well made, soft, with sturdy adjustable handles. We purchased a large.

Pros
  • Allows your pet to exercise without added strain
Cons
  • Could cause discomfort or irritation around sensitive or vulnerable areas of the body

Excellent Product. High quality!

My Lab recently suffered a FCE (fibrocartilege embolism) and loss use of hind legs. Thankfully, she is recovering. This product works perfectly to assist her with ease. Definitely well pleased and highly recommend it. It’s super soft for her belly and high quality. Shipping was incredibly fast. Got it in 1-2 days from time of purchase which was all the more helpful to assist my dog ASAP. Thanks SGT KNOTS!

Pros
  • Makes it easier to lift your dog in and out of a car
Cons
  • Could potentially cause anxiety or stress for some pets

Our 78-pound dog needed his ACL repaired (surgery) last week no stairs for 6 weeks. I can't even begin to tell you how helpful this sling is getting him in and out of the house. Thank you so much for such an amazing product. I highly recommend this Pet Sling to anyone it truly is a lifesaver for us. Mike thank you for your speedy shipping.

Pros
  • Ideal for senior dogs or those with mobility issues
Cons
  • Could be dangerous if used during certain exercises or activities
