Walkabout Rear Lift Dog Harness

A steady handhold for short toilet trips.

Repeated toilet trips are easier to organise when you have a fitted handhold around the hindquarters. Walkabout provides rear support while your dog takes permitted steps. Measure the abdomen and upper thigh, then check that the handles let you stay comfortably close. If both ends need help, compare a full-body harness.

A HELPING HAND FOR THE BACK LEGS

Help the back legs through the next toilet break.

When your dog needs help getting up and reaching their toilet spot, a fitted rear harness gives you handles to support the hindquarters while they take permitted steps. Walkabout’s neoprene body and padded leg openings sit around the rear legs, leaving toileting clearance when correctly fitted. It is a practical way to make a short, repeated part of the day more manageable for both of you.

FIT, USE & SAFETY

Check your reach as well as your dog’s fit

Once both measurements match the chart, check your handle reach: you need to stay close without lifting the rear simply to reach your grip. At the first fitting, have the support demonstrated and check that the leg openings and toileting areas stay clear.

AUBENORD VERDICT

Steady rear support for the short trips you make every day.

The fitted leg openings keep the support around the hindquarters during short trips. This is the option to compare when the front legs can manage and the rear needs your help.
