How to Attach a Belly Belt

Some animals will need additional support under their belly, but is not needed for every pet. You can determine if the dog needs additional support if their spine bows downward. It is also helpful for overweight dogs or dogs with spinal or disc issues. One end of the belly belt has a tri-glide (rectangular with bar in the middle) attached and the other side has Velcro® strapping. Both sides have a rope with a push button adjuster.

  1. Take the side with the tri-glide and put the extender through the end of the loop.
  2. Take the rope and put inside the harness clip on the extender (B). Then, attach the front harness to the harness clip in order to secure the rope. This will keep the belly belt from sliding backwards. Now, adjust the belly belt so it is in the middle of the dog’s belly.
  3. Secure the other side over the extender and Velcro to bottom of belly belt. The purpose of the belly belt is to provide support for your dog’s mid-section.

If additional mid-body support is needed, you can upgrade to the Walkin' Belly Support.
