Pet animal mobility aid

A pet animal mobility aid for pet animals having a torso including a longitudinal length, an upper back, and a lower abdomen and having four legs, including two laterally opposite forelegs and two laterally opposite hind legs, the mobility aid comprising:

• a relatively flexible central strap extending longitudinally between a forward end and a rearward end for placement along the upper back of the torso, the central strap including laterally opposite sides;
• a forward strap assembly at the forward end of the central strap for affixing the forward end of the central strap to the torso adjacent the forelegs;
• a rearward strap assembly for affixing the rearward end of the central strap to the torso along a hind portion of the upper back, adjacent the hind legs, the rearward strap assembly including
• a relatively flexible first rearward strap extending from the central strap in a first lateral direction away from one of the opposite sides, transverse to the central straps and attached to the central strap adjacent the rearward end of the central strap for establishing a first rearward loop at said one of the opposite sides of the central strap such that the first rearward strap is adapted to be looped between one of the hind legs and the abdomen;
• a relatively flexible second rearward strap extending from the central strap in a second lateral direction away from the other of the opposite sides, transverse to the central strap, and attached to the central strap adjacent the rearward end of the central strap, the second lateral direction being opposite to the first lateral direction for establishing a second rearward loop at said other of the opposite sides of the central strap such that the second rearward strap is adapted to be looped between the other of the hind legs and the abdomen;
• and
• a handle member extending longitudinally along and coupled with at least a rearward portion of the central strap, the rearward portion being located adjacent the rearward end of the central strap, for placement along the hind portion of the upper back to enable grasping of the mobility aid along the handle member, adjacent the hind legs of the pet animal, to assist mobility of the pet animal.
