FULL BODY HARNESS

Traditionally pet owners have used a towel under the abdomen as a sling. This has its disadvantages. Firstly it causes excessive strain on the back, especially the lumbosacral area, and secondly it compresses the abdominal organs - often so much so as to cause the pet to urinate. If your pet is suffering from a back condition this method of support is not recommended.

If your pet is suffering from a back condition this method of support is not recommended.

Full body harnesses offering support through the pelvis and including the body offer a far more comfortable and less painful way of assisting your pet. They can be used as an aid to get your pet in and out of the car, up easily from a lying down position, support going over a slippery fl oor, or up and down the stairs. Handles on the front and back allow the owner to give a helping hand when needed. Harnesses may be used 24 hours a day and are extra padded for ultimate comfort.

Arthritic joints are unstable joints and can often be associated with lax ligaments. When weight bearing, the joint may be put under extreme pressure causing the pet to endure more pain. A brace to support the joint will help minimise pain, increase stability and assist in making ones pet more mobile. These supports can also be used in times of increased load to prevent injury, and for example, to support overloaded joints in an amputee.

HOW TO MOULD CARPAL AND TARSAL THERMOMOULD SUPPORTS

PAGE 7

THERMOMOULD INSTRUCTIONS

Submerse the thermomould support in a bowl of boiling water. Wait until it becomes soft and pliable. Take it out of the water and dry excess water with a towel.

Once the support is cool enough to the touch and you are sure it will not burn the dog, mould the support to the leg. Reattach the straps until the fi t is perfect and snug. Set the angle of the joint and hold the support until it cools and hardens. The support will set as it cools.

Tip: Make sure the point of the hock is positioned in the middle of the support. If you are not happy with the fi t of the support - heat and remould.

Once cool and hard, check to see if the support has been moulded symmetrically and that there are no hard bumps or lumps that may cause irritation.

This support is remouldable at any stage.

Please make sure the owner can fi t the support correctly. Get them to check for areas of rubbing, hair loss and erythrema.

STICKY PAWZ

SIZINGHOW TO MEASURE YOUR DOG’S PAW

• For the best fi t, measure from the bottom of the big heel pad to the tip of the longest toe nail. If the paw is in-between two sizes, select the larger size. • Pawz Dog Boots should fi t securely around the leg and comfortably around the paw.

FEATURES• Available in 7 sizes.• Sold in sets of four.• Biodegradable, re-usable, light weight, non-skid rubber socks.• Provides traction for dogs with weak limbs (e.g. arthritis, neurological weakness) or for those pets walking on slippery fl oors e.g. tiles, wood, laminate. • Thin enough for your dog to feel the ground, providing a sense of security. • Ideal for dogs with neurological weakness.

Slippery fl oors such as tiles and wooden fl oors can make it diffi cult for pets to move around the house with ease especially when they have weak limbs. Booties with rubber soles can help increase traction and allow them the confi dence to walk on these slippery surfaces. This helps prevents other injuries such as joint sprains and splaying (doing the splits). It also helps build muscle as they are able to use their legs more effectively. I recommend using rubber socks in neurologically weak pets as the booties can be too heavy and cumbersome and may contribute to hind limb dragging.

OTHER BENEFITS• Post surgical infection.• Sand irritation.• Allergies.• Pad rashes. • Reduce exposure to pesticides, fi reants, mud/clay, lawn chemicals ect.• Ideal for dogs with neurological weakness.
