“I have a very large (65 lb.), 15 year old Springer Spaniel, Cody. He has hip dysplaysia and arthritis of the spine, hips and knees. I ordered Bottom's Up for him about 3 months ago and it is wonderful! I had been helping him up and down the steps leading to my backyard with a towel under his belly. Bottom's Up has made it easier for both Cody and me. I honestly do not know if Cody would still be with me if I did not have Bottom's Up. Thank you for such a terrific and easy to use product!”

"I received the leash on Saturday (thanks for the super fast shipping) it is awesome. We moved into a new house with stairs last Monday and my poor border collie Elijah could not get in and out without struggling with the old "towel-under-the-belly." Your leash makes it SO much easier for both of us! I now am not afraid of losing my grip on those towel ends and Elijah is much more supported under his rear where he needs it. Thank you so much, from me AND Elijah!"

"Wish I had a digital camera to show you a "before and after" photo of Cynthia. This dog leash has been a true lifesaver. The slippery ice and snow was a nightmare for Cynthia and me, but now I have a great way to support her hind legs as she does her business. The hip dysplasia and arthritis have been horrible, but this harness has given her a much better life. Congrats on your dog leash product and on running a wonderful business for senior animals."

"I just wanted to say "Thank You" for the Bottoms Up Leash. After our Weimaraner's Achilles reconstruction they recommended using a towel to help support her. She weighs 80 pounds and it was impossible. Your product has saved my back and made her much more comfortable when going outside to use the bathroom."

"I just want to say the leash finally arrived on Wednesday last week in England. I want to thank you for your quick response in sending the leash, it is really marvelous and I am able to take my dog for a walk again, which he really enjoys, I just can't let him go ye. He is so alert up front. It would be easier if he was in pain or not all there, but he is and I feel it would be such a shame to have him put to sleep. He is my very best friend and I love him to bits. So thank you once again for all your help."

"Before I purchased your leash I did not foresee Larry taking any long walks anytime soon, or short ones for that matter. Life has certainly changed for the two of us since I bought your leash a few months ago. I started Larry off on a small physical therapy schedule that I made up myself. We started walking around the backyard and within a few weeks I was able to get him to walk around the block we are now up to about a half-mile. This harness has been wonderful for him and for me too
I lost seven pounds!"

"Two major hip surgeries have slowed Dixie down. It was sad to see her condition deteriorate like it did. I bought your leash and hoped for the best. The leash has been great and my pet loves it. It really gives her a new leash on life."

"I can't tell you what a difference the leash makes. I was finally able to get Cody in and out of the house by myself... without him urinating on me or himself. You guys have a really excellent product. My vet is using a canvas wood carrier that's been modified a bit. It isn't nearly as effective as the leash. There is such a great demand out there and I'm surprised at how many people are unaware the leash exists. Anyway, thanks for all of your help. Cody is going for acupuncture tomorrow for his ruptured disc. He has regained feeling in his legs, but just can't support himself. We're hoping for the best. You guys are lifesavers."

"From the minute I received my leash, my 12-year old Wheaton Terrier, Max, has been running. My dog has Degenerative Mylopothy. His back legs have slowly become paralyzed. I am 5'1", my dog weighs 47lbs, and I could not get him around. I tried every product on the market. Despite spending triple the amount that I spent on your leash, my dog hated all of them and urinated on them each time. Your leash has saved my arms and back and given Max, a new leash on life! He is only limited by how fast I can go! It gives him freedom to be a dog! I am not constantly, washing the leash and he gets in and out of it in seconds. I truly, do not know what I would do, without it. I am so thankful I found this leash, and I am always recommending it, to people who see us walking. All my vets have been amazed by this leash. I cannot say enough about it. Thank you!"

"Watson must be smiling in doggie heaven knowing what he has done on Earth for all of these animals."

"After taking my 11-year old dog, Cody, to the vet and finding out he had arthritis in both of his hind legs and needed exercise on a daily basis, I searched for the Bottoms-up leash. Living in a small town I knew I had to order one off my computer. Naturally, I wanted it yesterday, but knew that was not possible. Watson's being in California and me being in Arizona, I knew I would get it faster. The leash was delivered in record time and is perfect. My dog is walking everyday, doing great and slowly building muscle in his legs. Watson's was very kind and courteous to me on the phone. If I need to order any other Senior Dog products, Watson's is the first place I will look. I'm a small woman weighing around 118 lbs. My dog weighs 76 lbs. and I cannot carry him so the leash has been perfect. I can help him get the exercise he needs. Thank you, thank you. I have already highly recommended the Bottoms-up leash to others in my position with larger dogs. P.S. Cody also thanks you"

"George was adopted one year ago. He was 9 years old, blind, deaf and had a previous spinal injury that limited his ability to use his hind legs. George has been to the opthamologist and now sees quite well. Our wonderful vet has cleared his ears and he now can hear his Mommy tell him how much he is loved. We worked on walking him as much as he could and he regained some of the strength in his hind legs. He began attending the Pug Meetups in Houston and he loves them. Recently, George began having mild seizures and is again unable to walk with much control. He has been unable to join his 3 brothers on their walks with Dad and this makes him sad. I ran across the Bottom's Up site one day and I decided to give this new leash a try. The evening it came we tried it immediately. George seemed to understand and headed striaght for the front door. He walked down the block and back with Dad. He was tired, but very proud of himself. He has grown to trust the leash and will try to run, we have trouble keeping up with him some days. George has even started "hiking" him leg on walks to show the others that him is the BIG man again. Thanks so much for what you are doing. It does make a HUGE difference to those of us who need you. George is going back to the Pug Meetup in November."
Thanks so much,
James and Cindy R.
