How can I support her nipples when we walk

Ilvsantana · Jan 9, 2024

She was very mistreated and over bred before I got her . She has long sagging nipples and it makes it uncomfortable for her to use the doggy door, and it just seems like more discomfort to walk and play... not painful i dont think. Is there any safe way to support them so she can run and play freely?

Poor baby! What about putting a shirt or something on her to help keep them in place. I assume she’s at a point where they won’t tuck back up? My bulldog had a litter in 2022 and she had some seriously sagging nipples for quite awhile. But with some exercise and milk drying up, they eventually didn’t hang so low anymore.

Would a thunder-shirt help?

They are not going to tuck back up. 2 weeks before I adopted her they spayed her, and they shouldve done it then but,...
She was rescued from a nightmare breeding situation where they kept her crated 22 hours of the day for 4 years and she has had too many litters of pups. It wont hurt her to tuck them under a shirt?

I probably wouldn’t leave a shirt on all the time but maybe if she’s outside running around, just to keep them controlled sometimes.
