I ordered it for a young cat who was paralyzed in her back and back legs. I do not know whether she was injured or had a heat stroke. She just fell over in front of me, and I picked her up and carried her home. It was a little difficult to get both the front legs and the hind legs in it because the cat “Gabby” did not know what I was doing to her. It worked well to lift the paralyzed hind quarters and to teach her how to walk to again. I would recommend this product for any injured young cat or small dog. It took practice for me to balance the leash and the young cat’s weight, but, the leash provided good support and balance once used a couple of times.

This harness is very useful when having to move or carry an injured dog. The quality is very good and it resisted the weight of a pretty big Samoyed.

I BOUGHT THIS FOR MY CRESTAPOO WHO HAS HIP DISPLACIA. SHE HAS A LONG THIN BODY. THIS CARRIER SURPASES MY EXPECTATIONS. VERY STURDY, WELL CUSHIONED AND HAS THE RIGHT LENGTH STRAPS. WELL PLEASED WITH MY PURCHASE.

Dog had a torn ACL. This made in and out of the house with a 100 pound Lab so much easier!!!!

I only got to use it for a week before my dog passed, in that week thou it helped her tremendously. Would recommend.

My dog has a bad knee and this helped

A little hard to follow the instructions. It seems to have work. My dog seems to walk better while he is wearing it

Both my dog and I are disabled. I have seven steps between me and the ground floor. I tried multiple harnesses and this is the only one that actually works.

My dog Tank, German Shepard)was diagnosed with bone cancer. He had no problem going down steps but would fall going back up. He seemed to welcome being carried back up the stairs with this. Unfortunately he got so bad that we had to have him put down. It’s in storage now, I have another German Shepard. Hopefully I’ll never have to use it again but I have it in case I do.

I have an elderly American bulldog that sometimes has issues with arthritis. She is about 80lbs. It was so hard to try to use a separate harness and support at the same time. This has made it so much easier to help her but also doesn't kill my back. Very happy with this purchase.

This was very helpful when our girl had issues with her front legs. Easy to put on and take off.

This may not work for every dog but for my German Shepherd 14+ year old it is amazing!

I rely on consumer feedback when evaluating products on Amazon. I thought I would post a review if you are considering this dog sling. My 12 year old Doberman is 95 pounds and is having a hard time using the steps (5) to get outside. He can go down but refuses to go up…most likely because of nerve damage in his spinal cord and fear that he will fall. I needed something immediately. I live alone so it would have to be a solution that I could use by myself. I saw the video and how one person could lift the dog by using the shoulder straps. This was no easy task for someone my height (5’3). I’m pretty strong but it took everything I had to get him up the stairs. He wanted nothing to do with it, initially. It might be easier for someone taller and I’m sure it works better with smaller dogs. Nonetheless, it does work. Definitely works well with two people when each person grabs one of the handles. I noticed that after a week, he started getting comfortable with the sling and trusting it more. He was willing to try to go up with me helping. I stand behind him, holding the handles, and lift his backside up while he uses his front paws. I don’t need the shoulder straps if he is participating. It works great now. Just give your dog a week. It took a minute to figure out how to attach it to him, but I can do it in the dark now. Four clips and velcro on top. I got the largest size and it was a little big. If I would have known I would have ordered the next size down.

Got this for my 5lb dog who is recovering from surgery. I bought small. She is about 10 " along the back and I used that measurement to select the size. This is VERY well made with lots of comfort padding. My primary use, at least right now, is to use as a carry sling as she is supposed to be on cage rest and NOT walking much at all. The sling/carrier allows me to tote her around as she is developing a case of separation anxiety when left in the cage alone. The carrier allows me to work and do chores and take her along (and I can still use both arms). For my uses, this has been great. Later I will use it as a grooming aid to get those nails!! Well worth the money.

Our frenchie broke his growth plate in his knee. The vet gave us a sling to use but it was useless. He would come right out of that. This was perfect to take the weight off his leg. Easy adjustable between 5’ me and 6’ hubby.

Really liked this harness. Needed extra support for our wobbly doggie and this saved our backs and his legs. It is pretty big and I probably should’ve ordered a smaller size but I thought I measured correctly. We made it work!

This was a lifesaver for my hound mix (60lbs) that had double ACL surgery. My boyfriend was able to lift her up and down the stairs for a couple of weeks. Excellent product but wish the straps Velcro was longer for a tighter support.

In a matter of a month, my dog’s arthritis got so bad she was unable able to stand up by herself. And I moved to a house with stairs getting in and out of the house. She’s 46lbs so carrying her was not an option. This has made her life so much easier. It’s adjustable so you can make it comfortable for you both. I help her down the stairs and up again. She’s able to walk on her own. She was leery at first but I allow my leg to touch her side as we walk down the stairs together. After three weeks she’s a pro. I would recommend you use a leash loosely to keep control going down the stairs.

This is a very sturdy harness. My 94 pound boxers back was going out and I bought it to help him up and down the stairs. At the end I had to carry him up and down with the straps and they held up, did not rip or strain at all. My dog passed unfortunately but this definitely helped make it easier for him and I at the end. Highly recommend.

It is so convenient to help her stand up and get her up and down stairs. It has been a blessing for my 17-year-old dog. I have had a stroke and it is very convenient for me to help her.

The harness was well-made and probably extremely useful for a dog with both front legs but my dog had osteosarcoma, fractured the front leg and had to have it taken off. We needed a harness to help him with stability but the way this is constructed, it went right across where the incision was so it was not comfortable for him. I would highly recommend it for a dog with both front legs! Very sturdy!

Best thing I found for my 15 y/o Shih Tzu. He’s really small (7.2 lbs) and his hind legs are really weak. About 6 weeks ago, they just kind of gave out and the vet put him on anti inflammatory meds and pain meds. I bought this harness to provide him with support while doing his business but didn’t have high hopes cause my dog is so small. Now, exactly 4 weeks later, he's up to about 80% use of his hing legs!! It took me a few days to get the hang of putting it on him by myself (took 2 people for the first few days) but I couldn’t be happier that I found this thing. I even considered getting another one (just to have something to use while one is washing and drying). My only complaint is that the actual strap adjusts too easily… I had to sew it in one position to keep it from moving while walking.

I’m so grateful for this harness. My baby was diagnosed with diabetes 2 years ago and the initial attempts to inject her insulin went very badly. She didn’t have an aggressive or mean bone in her body, she just wouldn’t sit still or cooperate. I live alone so I didn’t have anyone to help hold her still. She would pull away which would cause the needle to hurt her. And me once. I didn’t think I’d be able to treat her and was afraid I would lose her. I wasn’t willing to struggle with her two times per day for the rest of her life. That would have been upsetting for both of us. But I just wasn’t ready to say goodbye. Then I remembered seeing a pic of someone using something like this to trim their dog’s nails and thought I’d give it a try. This absolutely did the trick! She always willingly allowed me to put her harness on and hoist her up! She never ever resisted it and we got a good routine down. My angel recently passed away. While it never seems like enough time, I will forever be grateful for the extra years this harness bought us. Hug your pets 💕 🐶
