Description
The Buddies Dog Support Sling is sized properly for smaller dogs — from 3kg upwards — which most support slings are not. It gives you a steady hand under the body for stairs, walks and the awkward moments in between, without swamping a little dog in webbing built for a labrador.
Why owners choose Buddies
- Sized by weight, not guesswork: five sizes covering 3.2kg to 21kg, so the fit is actually right.
- Steadies without lifting: takes just enough weight for stairs and kerbs while your dog still walks themselves.
- Adjustable and washable: polyester construction that survives daily use.
- Three colours: orange, navy and yellow — the brighter options help visibility on dark mornings.
Who it's for
Small and medium dogs recovering from surgery, seniors losing confidence on stairs, and dachshunds and other long-backed breeds who need support without pressure through the spine.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know before you buy. Still unsure? Our UK team is happy to help.
Contact us →Is it suitable for a dachshund?
Yes, and it is one of the most common uses. Support under the body rather than pressure through the spine is exactly what long-backed breeds need.
Which size for my dog?
Sizes run XS 3.2-5kg, S 5.5-8kg, M 8.5-12kg, L 12.5-16.5kg, XL 17-21kg. Go by weight first, then message us if your dog is between sizes.
Can I use it on stairs?
Yes, that is the most common use. Take stairs slowly and let your dog lead rather than lifting them.
How do I wash it?
Hand wash in cool water and air dry.
