As most of you know, my bichons have both had some medical issues and I am always on the lookout for new and effective medical inventions for our furry friends.
I ran across an article about the WiggleLess Dog Back Brace. The more I read about it, the more intrigued I became!! There are literally pages and pages of testimonials of dogs that have been helped by this wonderful invention.
The testimonies intrigued me so much that I picked up the phone and contacted the company. I spoke directly with Lisa Luckenbach, who is the inventor and owner of WiggleLess.
As a yoga teacher, Lisa knows how important a healthy spine is to longevity and quality of life for her pups. It occurred to Lisa that if a back wrap could help humans, one could potentially help her two dogs as well.
Lisa drew up a pattern and had it sewn up. It wasn’t long before her most recently injured dog, was reaping the rewards of wearing her new back brace. Not only did the brace provide back pain relief to June with her IVDD (intervertebral disc disease) related injury, but it helped prevent her from re-injuring her back.
WiggleLess™ is designed to support and prevent back injury in small and medium size dogs.
The WiggleLess™ patented, vet recommended wrap restricts sudden twists to the spine
that may lead to back pain or trauma and provides firm, comfortable support helping to
reduce stress.
Wiggleless® Dog Back Brace Features:
- Durable, Lightweight, Breathable Construction
- Built-in Boning For Firm Support
- Metal “O” Ring For Leash Attachment
- Adjustable, Easy To Use
- Each Size Has Its Own Pattern And Specifications
- Double Mesh For Stability And Durability
- Refined Cuts Under Front Legs And Around Torso For Unisex Fit
- Size Medium And Large Come In Regular And Long Sizes (slightly tapered fit on LONG sizes)
- Additional Boning On Medium And Large Sizes
During my conversation with Lisa, we discussed other uses for the WiggleLess...as I had been thinking that I might be able to use it for LadyBug. Not only does she have spine issues, she also has a tremendous fear of thunder & lightning and fireworks. I find that putting the WiggleLess Brace on, it makes her feel more secure and therefore...not as nervous!!
I am thrilled with the changes I see in both Chloe and LadyBug and I believe if you know of a dog who suffers from spine issues or any type of anxiety problem, the WiggleLess could be the answer for you as well. The quality and workmanship of the WiggleLess Back Brace is unparalleled.
Take my advice and give WiggleLess a try...it could mean a huge difference in the quality of life for your dog!

Oh, this sounds interesting. My Uncle Bailey is a Bichon and he hurt his back YEARS ago. He had to have emergency surgery back then and he had to re-learn how to walk right again. He now suffers from arthritis in that area and grandma is always looking for something to help him. I will have to let her know about this product! thank you so much for sharing about it.

Awesome review, Jeanne!
And being someone who practices yoga, I agree with Lisa 100%, a healthy spine is so important!
So glad to hear that Chloe and Lady Bug had such a positive response to this product!
And I must say, they both look adorable wearing it!
X to you and the girlz!
Bet it doesn't stop those cute little tails from wiggling all over the place!
How great it is that you were able to fins something for you pups. Bentley is terrified of thunderstorms and fireworks too. I have been thinking about finding some sort of wrap. Thanks for a great review!
Oh gosh, I wish I had known about these braces for Pip! Great review!
Please let us know how the girls do over a period of time with these braces. we are interested because Oso has back issues that this might help, in addition to laser therapy and massage. Do not want to put him on more meds or overdo use of pain killers.

Glad to see other bichons helped by this wonderful product. In 2012 my bichon Chipper found his WiggleLless to be a lifesaver to chronic back pain and debilitating vertebrae issues. He still uses it today whenever he tells me his back is bothering him. His story and photo are featured on the WiggleLess Testimonials page.
Hi Debra, I am so glad to hear that the WiggleLess Back Brace has helped Chipper. I, too, still use it for both of my girls when I see they are having difficulty. Thanks for chiming in! It is always helpful to hear how the WiggleLess has worked for other dogs!
What size is Chipper's brace? Jebbe's back hurts off and on...I've seen an x-ray and it's just a mess. He is a rescue and a wonderful guy...think he got hit when running the streets. Hoping the brace will help him...he's just too active sometimes and has serious pain the next day. I re himalize i have to measure, but this will give me an idea of size.
