Therapeutic Dog Blanket

Your Dog’s Own Body Warmth Makes This Blanket Therapeutic.

Designed with all dogs in mind; young, old, hard-working athletes or the family pet. Every dog can benefit from the natural heat therapy this blanket provides. With its polyester exterior, the blanket is both water resistant and breathable. Inside, we’ve lined the blanket with our state-of-the-art fabric, which contains ceramic powder.

It will reflect your dog’s natural body warmth and creates a soothing infrared thermal heat. This gentle heat therapy increases blood circulation and may help reduce inflammation, eliminating many of your dog’s aches and pains so he remains comfortable and active. You’ll find this blanket ideal for both prevention and injury recovery.

Introduce our Dog Coat gradually to your dog. We recommend letting your dog wear it for a maximum of four (4) hours per day for the first 2 – 3 days. Thereafter, let your dog wear the blanket overnight. Physical response to our Dog Blanket varies. Not for use on pregnant dogs.

Laces at the front of the blanket allow for adjustability. Attached wrap-around belly strap keeps blanket in place with zipper openings for a leash and dog’s tail. Blanket has reflectors on each side for enhanced visibility. The zippered tail hole can be used, but is not necessary if the overall jacket fits well.

SIZING: Measure your dog's back length (see measuring image). With a cloth measuring tape (in inches), start from the base of the neck to the base of tail. Please do not measure past the tail or the coat will be too long. For assistance, please contact us at 831-233-1540.

Testimonial:

Injury

In August 2007 my Border Collie Luna aged 5 years old (Lunarlite My Fire) damaged her shoulder whilst competing in an agility competition. Luna jumped a jump and caught the wing, as the next obstacle required a pull through and the wing landed on her shoulder. Luna continued to work and finish the round but once we left the ring it became apparent that she had injured herself.

Treatment

I did the usual, total rest for a 2-week period and she didn't improve, I was worried that she could have a broken bone so Luna was x-rayed and everything looked normal. Luna was then put on anti-inflammatory pain relief. She wasn't lame anymore but the problem returned with exercise. We tried several types of pain relief. In November I decided to take her off the anti-inflammatory pain relief, as the situation wasn't improving I tried other natural remedies and increased her exercise gradually with lead walks. This helped but there was still slight lameness and she couldn't go running off lead with the other dogs.

Back on Track

After 3 days of building Luna up gradually with the Back on Track dog rug she was ready to sleep in it overnight. The results were amazing after only one month of wear Luna's slight lameness had gone she was now enjoying off lead walks and running with the other dogs - something I never thought she would do again. Luna's agility training has resumed I am building her up gradually, at the moment she is only jumping small height but I am hopeful of competing with her again in the future. I was so impressed with Luna's recovery I decided to try Back on Track myself as after a weekend agility show I sometimes suffer from knee pain. The joint feels twisted after wearing football boots whilst running the dogs so I thought I would give the Back on Track horse rug a go and slept with it wrapped around my knees - It was amazing the pain had gone after only one nights wear.

After actually experiencing the benefits for myself I now understand why Luna is happy to wear this product and why she has improved so much, so quickly.

The Back on Track Dog Blanket has given Luna her life back.

These products are brilliant and the results that myself and my dog have experienced have been amazing.
