CareLift Full-body Lifting Harness aids Dogs with Mobility Issues
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 чер 2024
- This is a review for a lifting aid for senior dogs, disabled dogs, or injured dogs with mobility issues. It can help you lift and carry your dog up and down stairs and help you get your dog in and out of vehicles.
We review the Petsafe CareLift Full-body Harness. Jaeger, our 95 lbs Chesapeake Bay Retriever has arthritis in his front legs and cannot get in and out of our car or RV by himself.
We show how to put on the harness and how to use it.
This is a great product and we are so excited to have found it. Without the harness, our senior dog would not be able to go on camping trips with us!
Here is the link to purchase the product on Amazon:

It is available in three sizes, depending on your dog's body weight.

Thank you so much for making such a thorough and careful video that demonstrates everything from fitting to showing the harness in use. It’s the best video I’ve found! I’m watching 5 years after you made these so not sure you’ll still have your beautiful dogs but you’ve given them such lovely lives and supported them so lovingly into their golden years.
thank you for your kind words. Jaeger is no longer with us. We miss him every day!
@@mcsdog ah I’m so very sorry for your loss of your beloved Jaegar. We all dread that day coming. He’s still helping others on here and always in your hearts 🐾💕
I have the carelift lifting harness for my dog Lucy. She started stumbling on the steps. The harness allows me to help her up the steps to the bedroom at night. My son built a ramp down to the yard so she can safely go down to potty. This harness is such a Godsend!!!! So well built and functional!
thank you for your comment!
That big dog really liked the help to get into the car.
Yes he needed it - we miss him a lot
Thanks a bunch
we are happy if this was helpful to you
Jaeger loves his mobility harness!
he surely did, we miss him so much
Awww..sweet Jaeger! Glad he likes it!
yes, he was a very special dog
Amazing thing! Just return from the walk with my 13 y.o. Great Swiss Mountain dog! She is happy and not in panic when falling on the snow as before CareLift!
Awesome!
Thank you so much for this video!!! My dog Paco is 14 and has arthritis. He is now getting where is falls over on floors and goes to the right when we go up and down stairs. You have brought joy to my life. I can't wait to buy this for him and hope it helps. I was talking to the dr. and at 86 pounds I wasn't sure I could lift him in and out of the car.
So glad it was helpful!
Hi. Thank you so much for sharing this lifting harness review, it was very helpful. I've a Labrador, Maggie, she just turned 11 years old and few weeks ago she just started to have really bad bone and joint problems, reducing her mobility a lot. This kind of harness will improve a lot her mobility, so she can still enjoy going for a small walk. All the best for you and Jaeger, from Portugal :)
Glad it was helpful! Hope you and Maggie enjoy your walks _ check out Fresh Factor from Springtime Inc, they really improved Jaeger's mobility!
@@mcsdog She was already taking Kimi Move (similar to Fresh Factor ) since last year, when joint problems started to appear. Unfortunately Maggie x-rays gave us not so good news and now only pills will give her some comfort, but the most impressive thing is that day by day, her mobility is degrading really fast, cant even stand on her own anymore. Trying everything we can to give her the best quality of life possible..
Great video!
thank you!
Jaeger us awesome.
Our dog is now in need of one of these and i was not sure how this would work.
Thank you for the video. Totally helped.
thank you
thank you for sharing both how to use it and how it has been helpful to your dog!
thank you
Thank you for the video. Never feel safe buying stuff from Amazon but I'll definitely try this one
thank you for your comment - glad the video helped you
I have used this and it is fantastic! Works better for dogs and for people!
thank you
Great video I just ordered one and the video answered my question glad to know I got one people recommend
So glad this was helpful for you! Thank you for watching and taking the time to leave a comment
I think the right size cargo net could be pretty useful. Where their legs could go right through it. But it would support their body
interesting suggestion
Thank you so much for this explanation. The harness was a bit of a tangle, but your demonstration was great!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanku for posting, I’ve just bought one of these for my gsd who now has weak back legs, he’s not too keen so we only left it on for ten minutes and will build up the time, I’ve a feeling it will save my back a great deal
thank you for your comment!
Good boyeee Jaeger! Thank you so much for sharing this informative video. I was debating between this one on Jaeger and another brand. You guys helped me out choosing the right one. Can't wait to use this on my 10-year old who just ruptured her CCL. It's been a rough 24 hours, but I'm sure PetSafe Carelift full body harness will help out big time. Thank you again! Bless UP!
thank you for watching!
Thank you for this review. My Lab/beagle just had bilateral TPLO surgery for her back knees. She needs to have support while walking during her 6 to 12-week recovery. This looks like a great option during her recovery.
So glad it was helpful - wishing her a speedy recovery
Thank you, I'm dealing with my GSD Hip D. and your video was very helpful and informative to help me decide which harness is the best for her. Thank you again.
Nice to see your comment. Hope you find the right harness for your dog!
such a great product to help with large dogs to get in and out of cars or RVs
it is- our 95 pound dog is easily lifted with this decive
The harnesses seemed loose and moved around a bit. I was hoping this would be the solution for us but I can’t see how that is comfortable for the dog.
I liked it loose. We never had any issues with it. But the harness is also adjustable, so you could certainly make a snugger fit for your dog if desired
Thank you for the video - my old girl, Islay, just turned 15 and will need help getting in/out of our RV. May I ask which ramp you use?
it's the Pet Gear Full Length Tri-Fold Pet Ramp :)
15 yrs, that is a great age for a dog. You must take very good care of her.
If I just use the rear harness, it seems to fall backwards and off of my dog. I have a Corgi with little legs. Will this work for him?
Also, he can't walk at all on his back legs. Will this help by my lifting his back legs and him then walking on the front legs only?
Thank you.
I was able to use just the rear with Jaeger, when I made sure he wore the belly strap and that everything was fitted tight enough. But I never left just the hind on for long periods of time.
I would use both together with a dog that cannot use his hinds at all to give more support
I noticed in the first ramp scene the back straps of the harness looked very loose and drooping around his "knees" - are the straps hard to adjust for a more secure fit? Thank you. I am thinking of purchasing this harness for my 9-year-old Doberman who has CVI (Wobblers). Do you keep the harness on Jaeger all the time, or remove it at night? Also, my dog is female, so could she just keep the belly strap on all the time? Or would that interfere with her bathroom breaks? Thanks again!
Gina, they are super easy to adjust. We just liked them loose rather than tight, so we can just let the harness slip off when the dog is in the car.
@@mcsdog thank you. I am waiting for my harness to arrive.
Hi. Would this work in getting a dog down a flight of stairs? Is this tool more meant for assisting the dog or can I actually lift the dog a bit off the ground as in going down stairs? THANK YOU.
That should work very well with that. I used it to get my Chesapeake up the ramp into the RV. It has two very solid handles one for the front one for the back. Good luck
This is supposed to come with a shoulder strap. It attaches to the front & rear harness pieces, you squat, place it on your shoulder, then lift the dog with your legs/glutes instead of your arms/shoulders.
It is designed so that you can lift the dog. We used the handles mostly, but there is a shoulder strap that attaches to the front and back harness so that you can use your body to carry the dog. Jaeger is 95 pounds and it was easy to carry him w this setup
Can this harness be used for a 140 pound dog that needs to be rehabilitated from a broken femur ?
I would recommend you check the companies website for exact measurements. It is adjustable, in many places and they may even make a size larger.
@@mcsdog thank you.
Very confusing how to attach rear leg, even with video directions . Is there a step by step directions. Video of exactly how to attach leg portions. The buckles are confusing. Please help is there a better video?
thank you for your comment. Took us a bit to get it right as well.
good video, but you don't show how to adjust straps.
Noted! thank you for the feedback
So you have to lean over and grab the handles? I don't think that will work for me and my guy. Going down stairs, having to move with him that way doesn't look like it would be easy at all. Jaeger looks like he could benefit from a bit of weight loss; it would make movement SO much easier on him. Poor boy.
thank you for the comment
Is there an issue getting poo on the butt straps when he goes? 😂 that looks suspiciously in the way
we never had an issue with this.
@@mcsdog thanks! I ended up ordering a different style lifting harness for my 90lb malamute (one that offers more support and lifting on the stomach area than the hips and chest separately) and if that style doesn’t work for him, I’m going to order this one :) it’s his first time needing/using something like this so I suspect there will be some trial and error. Great video, I’m definitely getting this one if the one I bought doesn’t work out :)
Jaeger loves his mobility harness!
yes
