You may not need this very often; in fact, you probably forgot how to get started! Ehmer slings seem simple but looping a figure eight in the correct direction can be a challenge. Lee Herold, DVM, DACVECC, will walk you through placing an Ehmer sling on a dog.Sidebar Bookmark Button

Very useful! What are your thoughts on the technique of continuing the wrap around the abdomen? We had a 10# poodle which required an Ehmer sling this past week and, after continued slipping of the Ehmer sling, we added the abdominal wrap portion recommended in one of our new bandaging textbooks.

Also, big kudos to Addy for modeling the sling!

This video was very helpful in making a little more sense of this sling that I've seen used a few times before. Thanks!

Thanks a million for the video. New graduate trying to do this blindly would have been bad. Hopefully the closed reduction + Ehmer sling will prevent this dog from having surgery.
