Help 'Em Up Dog Harness

Winston

Thank you for creating this harness!! I am a veterinarian in Western New York and this is my 11 yr old lab Winston. I used the Help-em-Up 2 years ago during his recovery from TPLO surgery. Now that he has torn his other ACL we are back to using the harness..without it I would not be able to get him up and down our stairs! We use your product extensively in our practice and it has been a life saver for both the patients and our patient care staff. Thank you again for creating a product that truly has a positive impact on the quality of life of pets and their owners!

Eddie’s Wheels

The Helpemup Harness is the perfect manual assist for those dogs who have mobility challenges. Beautifully designed to support the dog under it’s skeleton, with cushy padding in all the right places, adjustable and easy to use, this harness makes assisting a disabled pet so much easier. A dog can stay in it all day and perfect for moving animals into and out of mobility carts. Our dogcart customers love the Helpemup Harness.

Mello

I would like to share with you how very helpful the Helpemup Harness has been to 11-year-old lab, Mello. Last fall, Mel began to have difficulty getting up from a sitting position. Although he was unable to stand on his own, once he was on his feet he was able to walk. It was determined to a tumor located on his lower spine, which was removed with surgery, and Mel is now cancer free. Our hope was he would stand on his own again, but this did not happen. Your harness has given Mel such great help! Mel is very comfortable in the harness and lifting him is no longer a struggle. Once we get him up, he is able to get his rear legs in a position to walk, which thankfully he does very well now. Our family thanks you and looks forward to many more years with our very special, loyal friend – and his handsome new harness!

Hoagie

Having years of experience with all kinds of dog harnesses, trusses and dog wear of all kinds, I can say that yours is by far the best I’ve ever seen. Our Hoagie had disc surgery last February, and though recovering well, will need more and more helping up as the years pass. As I have a neck injury, it’s a godsend for me as well. We’re preparing and training him for this early with your harness. Superbly designed and flawlessly crafted with all the adjustments placed for a perfect and comfortable fit. Also a nice bonus touch with the reflective ! Our Hoagie absolutely loves his! Thanks for a job well done, a true work of art and love.

Kona

Our 12-year-old lab, Kona, is a total ‘road dog.’ He loves the car, and we like to take him with us whenever we can, but when he began having trouble getting into our SUV, he couldn’t come with us as much, and it really changed his disposition. The Help ‘Em Up Harness saved us. It not only ensures that this member of our fam- ily never gets left out on a road trip, and we are able to lift him and guide him more easily. It has absolutely boosted his self confidence! Kona is getting along in his elder years with some hip problems and arthritis and the harness provides a needed solution to help keep our dog active as long as possible.

Henry James

I purchased your Helpemup for my 11 year-old, 110 lb. Rhodesian Ridgeback, Henry James. Henry had a total hip replacement. His non-surgical hip is very arthritic, so his recovery has been extremely difficult. As a canine physical therapist, I have access to a myriad of devices that are allegedly supposed to make the job of carting around a 100+ lb. dog easier – products I’ve often recommended to my clients as well. The best thing (and the ONLY thing that really worked with a reasonable degree of success) I’ve found is your harness. I can now lift Henry into a standing position by myself (until now it has been a 2-person operation) and he outweighs me! The other major benefit of your harness is that it allows the dog to place his feet correctly and actually walk without the hindrance of a sling. I am well able to control the amount of weight that Henry places on his back legs, which also makes the HelpEmUp Harness a great rehab device. Way to go!

Daley

I wanted to let you know how grateful I am that you produced such an excellent product. When I found your company online my Chocolate Lab, Daley, had recently begun exhibiting symptoms of Degenerative Myelopathy and I was panicked at the thought of him losing his ability to walk and confused as to how I would be able to help him as time when on. (He weighs 80 lbs, I weigh 105 lbs.)

Daley is now 13 and due to hip dysplasia and increasing arthritis and back leg weakness, he wears your har- ness 99 percent of the time. I can honestly say that it is the most valuable tool I could have found – it helps me to help him do all the things that he continues to love so much – walks, rides in the car, trips to the park, socializing with the other dogs and hunting for stray balls at the tennis courts.

I have people ask me about Daley’s harness almost every day and I’ve been amazed at how many people are looking for help in caring for their older dogs. Daley’s been my dog since he was nine weeks old and at this point my goal for him is quality of life. Your product helps me meet that goal every day!

Kasha

We lost Kasha two weeks ago. She was so athritic and close to not being able to get up at all. The harness really helped outside – she couldn’t have gotten around without it the last week. Inside she did better as we had covered all surfaces with carpet. I never thought I would miss that carpet in the kitchen but I do. These have been the hardest weeks of my life. Thank you for what you have done and I hope all is well with you and the business.

Tank Von Gierla

Thank you so much for the Harness! Tank looks great, and you have designed what I think is the best harness on the market. We are now both very happy! The harness you have engineered is fabulous, and I am so very thankful that I found your company. Tank thanks you too. He is 11.5 year old male German Shepherd, retired police dog — well trained in police/protection training, and has traveled all over the country for competitions and training exercises. Thank you again for everything.
