FAQ'S

How do I know if my dog needs a support harness?

Noticing signs of mobility loss in its earliest stages can help you and your veterinary professional make the right choices to help your pet and support their quality of life.

Subtle signs to look out for include; struggling to stand up, swaying back legs, reluctance to jump into and out of the car, refusing to climb stairs, scraping nails or dragging paws. If you notice any of these signs in your pet, we always recommend seeking advice from your vet who can guide you on the right type of support for your dog.

How to put on a dog harness

Each of our dog harnesses fits in a slightly different way. You’ll find instructions on your chosen harness page. Your harness will also arrive with fitting instructions.

How should a dog harness fit?

Your dog’s harness should fit comfortably. It shouldn’t be too tight, or too loose. Follow the guidelines on the product page of the harness you’re buying to ensure you get the right size and fit.

How our mobility supports can help your dog

Dogs with mobility restrictions can find it harder to do the things they might once found easy – like jumping in and out of the car or getting up and down the stairs. But this doesn’t need to be the end of the fun you and your dog can have together.

Dog mobility supports – such as our leg support harnesses and body slings – can help your dog maintain their balance and stay active while being fully supported by you.

Whether they need support getting into the garden for a quick toilet break or getting into
the car as you can head off on your next adventure, our no-fuss harnesses and slings make life easy for both of you.

If you have any questions before buying any of our dog harnesses, our friendly Customer Care Team are waiting to help you. Call them today on 01462 416 866 or email them at hello@yumove.com.
