SGT Knots Support Harness Pet Sling

My chow mix is 15 years old - and has a very hard time getting out to use the bathroom , so I purchased this item and it’s so helpful . It’s soft on his skin and doesn’t cut into him when I help him to go outside . It’s a god send for him and me . I was using a towel but without actual handles it was hard and the towel was rough against his underside but this is soft and works great ! Wish I would had gotten it years ago . Very helpful.

Pros
  • Can also be used as a training tool for your pet
Cons
  • Could potentially cause injury if misused or improperly fitted

Almost Perfect: my feedback

So, I reviewed this product when I first used it, and it wasn't favorable. My dog tore his ACL and had surgery. Those who know this procedure know that my dog can't walk on it for the first week, and can't do stairs for 8 weeks. So, I have to pick up my 93lb dog's rear legs to get him in and out of the house. I have been using this harness over the harness that the surgeon gave me. This would have been 5 stars if it was cut out for the male and females to go to the bathroom. So you understand…

Pros
  • Promotes exercise and independent movement
Cons
  • May require additional equipment or accessories to use effectively

Just right! in my review

This is the third dog sling I have tried (the others from other brands). I am a small woman with a 50 pound old guy, and the others could not be adjusted short enough. This is perfect! I can adjust it so it is comfortably for both of us, while providing stability. I love that it is soft. He seems to appreciate that, too!

Pros
  • Can be used for both front and rear support
Cons
  • Could potentially cause instability or imbalance during certain movements or activities

Back Saver best in my review

Our dog had suddenly lost use of both back legs and we needed something quickly to assist with taking her outside and helping in her rehab.This sling did the job with adjustable handles and the softness of it was great.Truly a back saver for us.Thanks for the wonderful product and thanks Mike for your service to our great country

Pros
  • April 8, 2016
Cons
  • Could be too expensive for some pet owners

Comfortable for the dog and owner.

This is perfect for my standard American Eskimo who has trouble with her hind legs and especially negotiating steps. It allows her the ability to continue to walk up the steps, but with a little help. It's like carrying a handbag up the steps. At night, she goes to the bottom of the steps and waits for me to put this on her. She also likes to still jump down the steps, which she absolutely cannot do. It lets me control how many steps you can go down at one time. I highly recommend this.

Pros
  • Helps prevent accidents and injuries that can occur when pets are unable to move freely
Cons
  • Not suitable for use on pets with certain respiratory or cardiac conditions

Wonderful Lifting Support for IVDD!

This harness is a wonderful, marvelous invention.I would give it 10 stars if I could! My 14-year-old miniature Dachshund, the love of my life, was diagnosed with IVDD last week. He is in excruciating pain if any motion jars his spine, so lifting him smoothly under his chest and hind legs is crucial when transporting him to laser therapy and back. Unfortunately, that can be tricky. So I researched on Best Buy (of course!) and I discovered this harness. I thought it looked so soft and yet so…

Pros
  • Reduces the risk of injury from lifting your dog incorrectly
Cons
  • May not be effective for certain types of joint pain or injuries

Easy and comfortable to use for myself and the fur baby.

I was using a towel to transport my daughter’s paralyzed dog. It was breaking my back and wasn’t really comfortable for her. This product is easy to use. I can stand up straight, lift her like a suitcase and I’m certain it doesn’t cut into her belly. Super.

Pros
  • Provides extra support during playtime
Cons
  • Could potentially cause behavioral changes or issues in some pets

Bought this sling to help my 85 lb German Shepherd/Chow get down the two flights of stairs at my apartment after his CCL (ACL) surgery and it worked great! We had tried a different sling we bought and even a towel that was suggested by the vet and they only made my dog more nervous and hesitant to go down the stairs. This sling is SO soft and fluffy and my dog was much more comfortable and the straps are adjustable and make it really easy to take a little weight off for him!

Pros
  • Provides comfort for both pet and owner
Cons
  • May not be effective for certain types of disabilities or conditions

Exactly what I needed

Used this to support my 11 month old Alaskan Malamute after her hip replacement to correct hip dysplasia. She had been spayed and had a gastropexy the month prior and is still growing back that fur, so I wanted something soft to cushion her abdomen. This worked great for us.Note, however, I did have to adjust it to pretty much to the limit of the length in order to use it and she's already 90-ish pounds and her back comes up to the top of my knee. If you need something to help you with a short…

My Go-To Harness: my feedback

I have a German Shepherd with DM and, although I have a cart and a fancy full-body harness, the Sgt Knots Support Harness is my go-to harness for getting my dog outside and for getting him into the dog van. I'm sure the fluffy material feels better than the towel I had been using and putting it on him takes about 2 seconds. The handles are very sturdy but, because of that, they are somewhat large in my hands. I may try to add some insulation tubing or something to add cushioning. Overall, very…

Pros
  • Basic Halter Harnesses
Cons
  • May be uncomfortable or restrictive for some pets

Sheepskin adds warmth and comfort

I like the sheepskin sling as it provides extra padding and comfort. We've used the canvas one when our golden had ACL repair. But we bought this when our grand dog was chewed up rather badly by another dog. She had staples, sutures and drains involving her hip and belly. I wanted a sling that would provide the most comfort.

Pros
  • Collars, Harnesses & Leashes
Cons
  • May be too bulky or cumbersome for some pet owners

So glad I found this!

Our dog had surgery and she weighs approx. 125 lbs. Before I found this product, it took two of us to lift her using a towel to help her up. This can be used one person. Thanks for making this product so sturdy and soft for our girl.

Pros
  • Durable and long lasting design
Cons
  • Could potentially cause additional injury or pain if used improperly or excessively

Dog & animal sling and motion aid

I was surprised when I received the 'sling'. The sturdiness and comfort it gave the animal was a pleasure. In addition to that, it was strong and sturdy.

Pros
  • Made from high-quality materials that are safe for your pet
Cons
  • Not a substitute for proper rehabilitation or physical therapy

Works great! on my review.

this pet sling is great-there is no maneuvering to get it on or complicated straps. you simply slip it under your pets belly near his rear and it really helps keeping them steady when they have weak hind legs. its been a life saver for my almost 15 year old basset hound. so glad I found it!

Pros
  • Helps your pet to move easier and with less pain
Cons
  • Could potentially cause discomfort or irritation around sensitive areas of the body
