Keeping your Senior, Injured, or Weak Dog Safe in the Home
| VITAL TIPS |
|---|
| What are your choices for dragging paws or dogs that knuckle? |
| There are many conditions that result in weakness/knuckling/dragging including DM (degenerative myelopathy), sciatic nerve injury, and disc disease. If you have a pet that's dragging and you want a device to help them get around, the most important thing to remember is that the device should be lightweight (they are already having trouble moving and can't handle anything heavy) and that it is "assistive" (it either helps them directly OR it helps you to help them). |
| A harness is "assistive" - it helps you help them get around. A harness is a must-have because these pets need help getting up, standing, and/or walking. So scrap the collar and opt for a comfortable, lightweight, padded harness. Next . . . what can be done to reduce knuckling? Yes, I'm getting to that :-) |
| To figure out the best device for your pet, you have to determine their current ability as well as their prognosis. Does your pet have an injury and is improving or is this a progressive condition? For pets that are improving, you may be able to get away with a device that is less "assistive". For pets with a progressive condition, like DM, then you are looking for a device that's more "assistive" and can possibly be modified to increase assistance when the pet needs more help. Below is a quick description of different devices and their recommended uses: |
| The No-Knuckling Sock reduces knuckling of the toes. It is meant for short-term use (a few minutes at a time). Dogs should be strong enough to flex the knee and bring the hip/leg forward. This device is ultralight, leaves the toes free, and and is made for either to front or hind paw. |
| The Toe-Up Sling reduces knuckling of the toes. It is similar to No-Knuckling Sock and allows the paw to remain uncovered. Both devices require that dogs be strong enough to flex the knee and bring the hip/leg forward. |
| The Hindlimb Dorsi-Flex Assist reduces knuckling of the toes and helps to flex the ankle. It offers paw protection via the boot, and can be worn for up to a few hours at a time. Again, this device requires that dogs be strong enough to flex the knee and bring the hip/leg forward. This is a prescription item that needs to be ordered by a veterinary professional and can be made for the front or back paw. |
| The Biko Resistance Bands are used for dogs that have whole hind leg weakness. It helps to bring both hind legs forward during walking. It does not cover the paw; the ankle cuffs are attached to a harness using the elastic resistance bands. |
| There are variations and modifications to the above devices - contact your veterinary rehab professional for more information. |

CANINE MOBILITY ANTI-KNUCKLING DEVICE
When all else has failed, we help your dog walk again
The Canine Mobility Anti-Knuckling Device (AKD) is comprised of an elastic shock cord that connects at one end to a dog harness (not included) and to a material paw strap at the other end (see inset diagrams). The paw strap is configured to include a toe loop that fits around the dog’s two middle toes, and a metatarsal loop that fits around the dog’s leg at the lower end of the metatarsus (above the paw). This configuration assists with both the forward movement of the dog’s hind leg and the upward movement of the dog’s toes, effectively preventing or reducing the frequency of hind leg knuckling.

| To prolong the life of your socks or for limited outdoor use, cover bottoms with duct tape or liquid rubber. Tape and rubber are inexpensive and can be replaced/layered as needed. |
| We found that applying the outer safety strap just above the paw then folding the top cuff over the strap helps to hold the sock in place better. Also, you can use a piece of VetWrap or an additional Velcro strap to hold the socks in place. |

HALO HARNESS WITH SIDE SWEEP
Allows Leash Connection to Sweep from Side to Side for Better Control
Humane with quick side-to-side control
Vital Tips for Rehab Practitioners: We included this harness because its sturdy "halo" handle is a great place to anchor outriggers (e.g., resistance bands). It provides a firm anchor (static) and gives you a broad area on where to apply the anchor (vs. the D-ring of a chest harness that only allows anchoring in the middle of the spine, in general). For example, many pets with weakness behind also tend to "scissor" (adduct) - with the ability to affix the resistance bands more laterally, you can discourage adduction and allow a more natural swing phase during ambulation.
COODEO DOG LIFT HARNESS: full body, lightweight, and comfortable support for your pet
Description: The Coodeo Dog Lift Harness is a lightweight, full-body harness that provides great support for pets with injuries or mobility problems.
Uses: This is a great harness if you have a senior dog or one with arthritis, weakness, or neurological condition. This harness is ideal for dogs with limb amputations since it opens and clips on both sides and also has dual trunk attachments so that it stays in place.
Features: It has 3 different support systems:
- Long Handle - for shorter pets or those that need only mild-moderate support
- Short Handle - for taller pets or those that need more support and assistance
- Leash Attachment - to give your pet more freedom to roam (leash not included)
The Coodeo fastens completely around your dog so there is no need for the dog to step into the harness. Made of strong, breathable, soft materials that are comfortable for the dog and allows the harness to be worn all day.
Harnesses are also recommended for big-bodied/short-legged dogs like dachshunds or bassets, and for dogs with amputations. Compare this and other harnesses to find the best one for your pet. https://www.rover.com/blog/review-best-dog-harnesses-every-kind-dog/

| We've tested this Coodeo harness and are big fans. We love that it's ultralight yet strong, with a wide panel that runs under the chest and trunk for better support. In pets with mobility issues and weakness, you don't want to apply a heavy harness and the Coodeo is super lightweight, soft, and pliable so it conforms well and is comfortable enough to be worn all day. We like that you can apply and fasten the harness without having the pet step into it. Dogs with pain or mobility problems often have trouble lifting their leg to insert into a harness - Coodeo has multiple clips that let you apply the harness around your dog.You can't beat this design and construction for the value. It's very affordable. |
| Here's our dog (below) with his Coodeo Dog Lift Harness. He weighs 47 lbs and he has cerebellar abiotrophy, a degenerative condition that makes it difficult for him to walk or control his body movements. This harness enables us to walk him while we support most of his weight. We did have the harness altered a bit for his wide chest (Thera-Paw, Inc. did the alterations). The belly straps are adjustable so they fit him perfectly. |

What do we like about this sling? Pretty much everything. It's so easy to apply and remove. It's durable with heavy-duty handles so it's great for pets that need your help getting up and down and around. We love the front chest strap - the purpose of this strap is to prevent the sling from slipping backward. This is important if you have a wide-chested dog (with skinnier hind end) and also for male dogs (for obvious reasons - ouch :-). And of course, the price of around $25 makes it a great bargain! |
