Does this dog leash / dog harness come in different sizes ?
Our dogleash fits dogs of all sizes. We have never had a problem with our leash not fitting a certain sized dog. If your dog weighs less than 25 pounds we recommend that you use the two slide clips that we will ship with your leash order. These slide clips are used to adjust the size of the leg loops to the desired size. We have many customers that have Lhasa Apsos and Daschunds and the leashes work great. Please click here for our product photo gallery which will illustrate how our leash might fit/look on your dog.

Do I need to use a "Front Leash" in addition to the Bottom's Up Leash ?
You do not have to, but some dogs are more comfortable with having both leashes. It will not affect results if you decide to use a front leash with your Bottom's Up Leash. The front leash acts as a guide.

Will I need to be able to lift my dog's weight in order to be able to use the Bottom's Up Leash ?
No. In actuality, you are only lifting a portion of the weight of the dog's rear hind-quarters. Click here to see a home video regarding our product.

Will the Bottom's Up Leash work if my dogs front legs are not stable?
No. Your dogs front legs will need to be stable in order to use our leash (dog harness).

My dog just had back surgery, will the Bottom's Up Leash help during the recovery period?
Many of our customers have successfully used our leash to support a portion of their dogs weight following back surgery.

Does the Bottom's Up Leash come in different colors?
No. Our Sheep Dog "Watson" looked great in red, so this is the only color we are producing at this time. We do not have any future plans to offer our dog leash / dog harness in any other colors.

Is it difficult to get my dog into the Bottom's Up Leash?
Absolutely not. Once the dog realizes this leash helps them walk, he/she will be eager to help you place it on them. It is easy as placing a head-end leash on an animal.

Will the Bottom's Up Leash chafe my dog's skin?
No. The Sheepy Sleeves (padded sleeves) which fit over the leg loops are made of Neoprene and are very soft. Our dog harness will not chafe your pet.

What a few of our customers have to say about the Bottom's Up Leash

"Got the leash today - it is exactly what we've been looking for! Our german shepherd is recovering from back surgery to repair a ruptured disk, and is just now starting to put weight on his hind legs and walk with some support from us. The walkabout harness I purchased though it did the job was an absolute ordeal to get him in an out of (he's 115 lbs of semi-paralyzed dog at the moment) and it kind of hindered his ability to walk naturally. This harness is breeze to put on, and because there's not a lot of material wrapped around his body he can walk more naturally. I noticed this difference the first time I used it with Boomer -- it was the longest walk we were able to take since the surgery. Thanks!" [More]

"Hip dysplasia was something I thought for sure was going to provent my dog from walking as he got older. Thanks to your dog leash short walks are something we do every day. Before this was not even possibile." [More]
Karen - Lompoc

"Just wanted to let you know how pleased we are with our leash. We are able to take our dog, whom we may soon lose to cancer, on walks, which wouldn't be possible without the support we can give him with the leash. We are so pleased to be able to help him enjoy what may be his last days. We used the leash on a visit to our dog's surgeon. The vet was impressed with the leash's design and asked us to bring her ordering information so that she could pass it on to her other clients. She thought the leash was a great idea, and said that she much prefers supporting the dog at the hind legs rather than under the belly (the way we used to support our dog with a rolled-up towel). Thanks so much!" [More]
Amanda Sumner - USA

"Two major hip surgeries have slowed Dixie down. It was sad to see her condition deteriorate likeit did. I bought your dog leash and hoped for the best. The leash has been great and my pet loves it. It really gives her a new "leash on life."" [More]
Monica - Bakerfield

"We are sending some photos as promised of our beloved Shepard Cody. We just returned from a few days on Cape Cod and took some recent photos of Cody wearing your "Bottom's Up Leash." We are so grateful to you for coming to our rescue - we find the vets here have not been helpful - they say there's nothing that could be done with his illness. Cody is a 13 years old and has so much personality and spunk. We are so sorry that you lost your dog - but it must be gratifying to help others. Your positive attitude is wonderful and has given us so much hope. We're getting used to the Bottom's Up Leash now and find it works best for us to hold it close to the body where we have more control. So, once again, thank you from the bottom's of our hearts."
