If that's not an issue I know they like to be near us. You do have to be careful with the slings when you bend or lean as the weight shift can cause the to fall out. I always keep a bracing hand on Buster when he is in his one.
Oh you are right I didn't think about that. What about something like this? Of course I would still hold him not let him hang from strap, but this way he can be around the house with me he really has separation issues. Also, I have one more question. Right now he is on tramadol and rimadyl while I schedule his surgery. Its getting harder and harder to make him eat. I have cooked everything I have chicken, rice, steak, hot dogs everything he usually loves but he wont eat any of it. He isnt drinking much water either. I called his vet and they didn't seem to worried but how am I supposed to give him rimadyl when he wont eat?
