Saved my dog’s life! When my 12 year old dog was no longer able to get up and down my stairs in my house, I was worried about the next step.

How it works
Four things that make the difference.
The difference between helping him and hauling him.
Wide padded panel
The quilted panel spreads his weight across his hindquarters instead of cutting in like a towel. Teddy-fleece lined so it doesn't rub on thin senior coats.
On in seconds
Slide it under, clip the buckles, go. No stepping through leg holes, no lifting him to get it on.
Adjustable fit
Twin webbing straps adjust through metal buckles, so it stays put as his condition changes.
One handle, upright
Both straps meet in one padded handle above his back, so you stand tall and close to him instead of bent over at the waist.

Getting the fit right
Getting his size right.
Measure around his belly at the narrowest point, just in front of his back legs. Snug, not tight — two fingers should slide under. That measurement decides the size, not his weight.
| Size | Girth | Roughly | Panel width | Panel length |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Small | 44 – 49 cm | 6 – 12 kg | 12 cm | 38 cm |
| Medium | 50 – 57 cm | 12 – 20 kg | 16 cm | 53 cm |
| Large | 58 – 69 cm | 20 – 32 kg | 20 cm | 74 cm |
| X-Large | 70 – 82 cm | 32 – 41 kg | 24 cm | 81 cm |
Why the weight column says "roughly". Two dogs at the same weight are often built completely differently — a vizsla is lean and deep in the chest, a staffy the same weight is a different shape entirely. Go by the tape measure and use the weight only to check you're in the right neighbourhood.
Between sizes? Size up. The straps take up the slack, so a slightly larger panel can be brought in — one that's too small can't be made bigger.
Over 82cm around? I don't currently have one that'll fit him properly, and I'd rather tell you that than sell you something that won't work.
Not sure? Send me his measurement and his breed and I'll tell you which size to order. One person runs this shop, and that person answers.

This harness is 5 stars! It is an invaluable aid in assisting my 35KG German Shepherd to walk with his back legs almost having complete lost sensation.

I no longer fear of my dog backing out of his harness. This is extremely well made.

It’s been a game changer. I only use it to help her into the car… it’s given me real peace of mind.

Thank you His Turn Harness for giving my dog and myself a little extra boost when we needed it most.

My girl loves it so much she whines and does her version of a happy dance when she sees it.

If you've been using a towel
There's a better way to get him up.
The problem isn't you. A towel puts all his weight through a narrow strip of fabric and all your weight through your lower back. Neither of you was built for it.
A rolled bath towel
What most people start with, and it works — until it doesn't.
- Digs in
- Slips sideways
- Two hands, bent over

Before you buy
Questions people ask before they buy.
How do I know which size to order?
Measure around his belly at the narrowest point, just in front of his back legs, and match it to the chart above. That measurement decides it, not his weight — two dogs the same weight are often built completely differently. Between sizes, go up. Still unsure? Send me the measurement and his breed and I'll tell you which one.
What if the size is wrong when it arrives?
Email me and I'll sort it out. I'd rather fix it than have you stuck with something that doesn't fit him.
My dog can't stand up at all. Will this work?
No — and I'd rather tell you now than take your money. This supports a dog who can still take some of his own weight. If he can't stand at all, you need a full-body sling, and your vet is the right person to ask about that.
What if he can't take much weight on his back legs?
The panel takes the last part of the lift off his back end while his front legs do the walking, so he's still doing most of the work himself. If he's under a vet's care at the moment, ask them how much support he should be taking and when — they know his situation and I don't.
How do I wash it?
Machine washable. Air dry.
How long does delivery take?
Most orders arrive within 6 to 12 days. You'll get tracking as soon as it ships, and if it's taking longer than it should, email me and I'll chase it.
Where are your products made?
The business is Australian — one person, me, in Sydney. The products themselves are manufactured overseas, like nearly all pet gear including most of what's on the shelf at your local pet shop. I'd rather tell you that here than have you find out from a tracking page.
