- A rear leg sling for dogs may be a necessary part of caring for your pet sometime in the future. Read the full written instructions here: topdogtips.com/how-to-make-and...
Whether your aging senior needs a little help standing up after a nap or your young dog has had surgery requiring you to help him up stairs, knowing how to make this easy rear leg sling will come in really handy.
"Open the bag and cut out the two small side panels. This creates a 'U' shaped sling with long handles. The best thing about making a rear leg sling for dogs this way is that the handles are long enough to accommodate even the tallest pet owner. No more bending to help your dog up!"

This video is a video I never wished I have to to see but here I am 😢
Me too I got up this morning an my lab is unable to walk seems like her rear right hip is injured I'm not sure
Me too! My 10 Year old rottweiller is paralized in her back legs from yesterday. I cant believe it 😔
My younger dog and his pup friend slammed into my 15 year old and she fell. It got a little better but then she saw a dog today she didn't like and fell again 🤦🏽♀️ we're going to take her to the emergency vet tomorrow
Yep
Me too
I tried this DIY for my little boy, who has severe arthritis in both hind legs, and sadly it didn't work well. He's almost 16 years old and has reached the stage he needs 24/7 care, so I have to put him down, and it's killing me to think about doing so.
Many joyful years we've shared together and end it while he has dignity left.
God Bless All Animals and those who love them. XO
I'm so sorry. You and your family are in my thoughts
God bless you're hurting heart. I'm going through the same thing with my 15 1/2-yr-old Lab. She was born in my kitchen. We've been through so much together. I'm missing her terribly already and feel so bad for what she's going through. Carrying her in a sling so she can go outside for a while. On her feet, she just spins in circles. She's still beautiful, and I don't want her to suffer.
Thank you! Dealing with this now and thankfully I had a bag I was able to use. Worked like a charm and I was able to take him out for a few minutes. Thank you!
am i the only one losing it over here at the cat getting into the bag?
Our dog is about to go through her second cruciate surgery while I’m still healing from my ankle surgery. So thank you SO MUCH for posting this genius idea. Truly this is going to save us this time around because I can’t afford to buy one. Thank you so much!
Such a smart idea, I just made one for my 24 yr old rat terrier, Anna. So far so good.
This is very helpful! My dog just had TPLO surgery. I wasn’t sure where to place the sling on his abdomen so this is helpful. My vet said to just put it under him in the event he falls or needs help getting up 1 small step but to let him put weight on the alternate leg. So I plan to try this! Oh and this is the best video 😆 I laughed when the cat & dog started to play in the bag! 😂 And then when the dogs started rough housing! 😂
Thank you because I’m,doing a science engineering project and I was so stuck thank you!
Samantha! I can’t thank you went! I live in Cabo San Lucas and my 92 lb lab is all of a sudden having trouble getting up. Amazon doesn’t deliver her. I’m going to try this. She’s got stitches on her belly so I’ll slide it back. God bless you Samantha🩵🙌🏻
You never know when you'll need this!
What a good idea! My 15 year old border collie and I thank you!
Wow, I was just about to order a sling from Amazon, but thought I'd check youtube for reviews and came across your video, so I followed your instructions and WAHLA...made the perfect sling for my dog who has congestive heart failure (difficult for her to jump into the car, onto chairs, up on my bed...now it will be easy peazie ! Thanx so much ! :)
Made one straight away, is so easy and super effective. Thanks for sharing this!
Wow. Just wow. Plus, these bags are so easy to cut given that they're basically paper. The solution was right in front of me. Thanks so much.
My 17 yr old passed away last summer. Thankfully we never had to use this. My 14 yr old however is why I’m here. Breaking my heart.
Hope he gets better 🌸
Never thought of doing this. Thank you so much !
You can use an old long towel to slip underneath their bodies to help lift the dog's rear end or to help them to walk. Just grip both ends of the towel and lift the dog---forming a sling.. If the towel gets wet then pop in the wash.
Thank you for this video, I absolutely needed to see this, cause I needed a sling and now I can make one.
This is such a great idea and will be put to use immediately for a GSD who I love and who is having difficulty walking and standing. Thank you for posting this.
hows your dog ?
Thank you so much, my dog woke up not being able to move his back legs easily, and we needed to get him to the vet. Your such an amazing person who has helped so many people.
We thought the same thing with our black lab. Vet put him on Arthritis medicine and Gabapentin. This along with Dasuquin made him back to his old self in about a week. I though the worst at first also with how he was acting
Thank you, this really worked surprisingly well!
Thank you, our bordercollie, soon 15 years old, has trouble with stairs and this will help so much!
This is great! Thank you. Also, I love all the animals!
Well I found this a few hours late. I just spent $60 for one online.
I'll give it a try while I'm waiting for the other one to come in.
Your pets look like a very happy bunch❤
Return it!
This was so helpful to me now. Thank you 🙏
Thank you so much for this amazing tip! 🙏❤ You're awesome 🎉
Great idea! Will definitely try this. Thx&see ya😁
Thank you so much! Bless you
Great idea thanks so much 👍 my baby needs knee surgery, so this will help tremendously 🐾🐾🤗
Thank you for this video
THANK YOU!!!! Much Appreciated
Thank you for this 😊👍
Congratulations for your video ans for your love to dogs and cats.
Thank you for saving me $20++!! Amazon has a ton of these, so similar with so many mixed reviews. Why not make your own!!?!!😎💖🙏
Great tip thank you very much!
Thank you! My 10 Year old rottweiller is paralized from yesterday so I Will try it!
Great video. Thank you. It’s unfortunate I had to find out how to make and use this though. 😢
Now this was informative. So simple yet so effective. Thanks for the tips :)
Great idea for a sling! 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you!!
Thank you
I will definitely try this. My almost 9 year old german shepherd has a very difficult time using his back legs. He drags them, and sometimes will sit and drag his whole bottom. It is very sad for me to watch, and I really want to help him.
What a clever idea!!-Would you use this on a smaller dog, like a Boson Terrier? Thanks!!
Thank you for sharing this.
i tried to lift my dog with a pair of pants up the stairs but he won't go anywhere when i lift his butt up. is this a learning curve for the dog?
My poor dog jumped up on the stairs and her back legs didnt make it dislocating her hip. We had her at the vet in 8 minutes flat. Now she is in a sling and this helped out so much. Thank you. My question is.. is it okay to hold her by her hip where you had it or should i support more of her tummy area? Thank u
My 10 year old black lab has rear leg weakness. Bought a Sling on amazon that worked great until the Gabapentin and arthritis meds kicked in. Also Dasuquin has worked wonders. Dog would not move and now he is back to his normal self
My Lab is having knee surgery today. This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks so much, practical and inexpensive. 👍🏼
Thank you so much for this video! My dog needs this when he poops, he cant hold a squat and his legs give out. I bought one of those support harness which was confusing and blocked his penis and we ended up with a mess. his works perfectly!! Thanks a million!
Thank you - just answered what was in my head for my dog!
Ditto
I need to know to fashion one for a male dog, for when he pees.
Sweet. My Goldadors name is Sadie.
This is awsome, thank you. My dog has torn ligaments in both back legs..
Have you tried any medicine yet or heard of anything that works? Mine just started having issues too and not sure what else to do? I'm giving him joint vitamins from Amazon.
So great thanks my dogie needs this😢
Nice, thanks. My dog hurt her foot, she's older, has hard time getting up stairs
Like many of you I don't want to be here. But I have to. Watching this video while wiping tear off my face. My boy is old and I fear I won't get as much time with him as I would like.
Can I use this for my dog for her front leg? She hurt her front paw and can't walk on it.
Has anyone used the back leg dog wheelchair? I just bought one from Amazon for $35. I hope it works.
My female dog is having knee surgery. The vet recommended a sling for potty. This is a great idea. My next step is to find a video of a female dog actually using a sling to go potty.
What can I do for our male GSD puppy? He injured his left hind leg yesterday and he won’t go pee or poop. Tried a towel but it interferes with his penis. Any suggestions? This option is only good for female dogs.
Lol the cat decided to sleep in the bag
I LOVE BOXERS !
I do not agree : the tissu will shrink and be like a rope and will hurt the belly of your dog. The back will not still straight and its a bad position for the dog.
Getting my scissors and cutting my bags thank you🦮🐾
Suppar
But what if my dog needs to pee, he does that out of nowhere, so he will pee on the bag…
My dog is 20 years old I she had a walk in wheelchairs why borrowed from my friend several years back and then she did great with it. She was able to strengthen your legs again and and she didn’t need any more. I gave it back to them, and I lost touch with a man, but now my dog had a stroke again, and She’s alive and I’m kidding. She’s doing well but she didn’t. She’s so depressed because she can’t walk anymore and I need it and I need to strengthen her legs again by walking her but I got to make a swing for a Chihuahua that weighs a Chihuahua that weighs 8 pounds and she needs help both all four legs and him. Please help me any ideas I can’t afford to buy her walking wheelchair. I want to get her when I love you so much but I am on disability and I’m just able to not have the money. I wish I could please help me.
Doesn't work for make dogs
There Seems to be this idea that ALL dogs are female no matter which site I check out!!! Not only that, but rear leg immobility, won't work on this also. I KNOW I don't have the only dog with this condition but noone addresses this issue. Picking up the stomach like that won't help! That's not where the issue lies!
So what do you recommend?
too much talking, just show how to make the sling
Thank you
