Description
The Buddies Dog Hind Leg Support Sling is a padded rehabilitation belt that takes the weight off your dog's back legs so you can help them stand, walk, climb stairs, and go to the toilet without straining either of you. Second-generation anti-slip design keeps the sling exactly where you place it on wet grass, tile floors, and clinic mats.
Why owners choose it
- Targeted hind-leg lift: a padded sling supports the rear specifically, ideal for dogs with strong front ends but weak back legs.
- Anti-slip inner panel: 2nd-gen non-slip lining stays put on the fur, so it doesn't ride up or twist during walks.
- Four sizes (S–XL): fits everything from miniature dachshunds through to large retrievers and shepherds.
- Reinforced polyester weave: machine-washable and built to hold its shape through months of daily rehabilitation.
- Long padded handle: comfortable grip lets tall owners walk upright rather than crouching.
Who it's for
Senior dogs, post-cruciate and TPLO surgery recovery, dogs with hip dysplasia or arthritis, IVDD and degenerative myelopathy (DM) support, and any dog whose back legs are weaker than their front.

Customer Reviews
So happy with this purchase. Its exactly what we needed for our senior boy and its made a real difference. Delivery was fast and the product is really well made.
Took about 10 days to arrive. Well made, exactly as described, dog loves it. 5 stars all round.
Do yourself a favour and just buy it. My cocker spaniel is 11 and has had a tough year with her back legs. Since we started using this she has been so much happier in herself. Genuinely emotional writing this. Thank you Buddies.
Arrived within the timeframe they said. Very well made, sturdy, and my dog took to it straight away no fuss at all.
The quality is a big step up from the last one we tried from Amazon. Wish we had found Buddies sooner honestly. Little Ted is a very happy boy.
Highly recommended. Buddies have been fantastic from ordering to delivery.
Arrived within the window they gave, tracking was spot on the whole way. Really pleased.
delivery was a bit slow but the product itself is great
The old boy has been so much perkier since we started using this. Best thing weve bought for him in a long time.
Third order this year. Never had an issue. Great company.
Went above and beyond honestly. Small note in the box which was a lovely touch. Product itself is fab.
Perfect.
