The Help ‘Em Up Harness is a unique full-body lifting device that assists owners with their dog's mobility for various conditions including: arthritis, hip dysplasia, muscle loss, spinal conditions or when surgical repair impairs a pet’s mobility and physical strength for everyday functions. The harness can be used from getting up off the floor, toileting, up and down the stairs, or in and out of cars etc.
The U-shaped opening in the belly band of this kit provides clearance for those male dogs who may be hindered from urinating by the conventional version. These dogs have a penis that is located further back between their hind legs or the tip of the penis is even, or slightly forward of their hind legs. The U-shaped opening helps them to urinate freely.
The aluminium armature used to create this opening is lightweight, ergonomically designed and padded so it provides easy clearance for urinating and is comfortable for male dogs when they are lying down.
Veterinarians, neurologists, and nurses use the harness for dogs rehabilitating after surgery or recovering from injuries. By placing a handle over the hips and the shoulders, the Help ‘Em Up harness safely lifts from underneath the torso, allowing you to help your dog get up and overcome the daily obstacles of aging and getting around.
This harness will also help you lift without stress by using the built-in handles, as the Help ‘Em Up harness is designed to distribute weight over the large support surfaces of the chest and hind quarters. Veterinarians, surgeons, nurses, and rehab therapists find our product to be a useful aid in helping their patients be lifted more comfortably post-surgery and rehabilitated more easily.
