Unfortunately pictures aren't loading right now, and our tech team is working on it. The Help 'Em Up harness is my favorite in its comfort for the dog and its usefulness for the human. https://helpemup.com A GingerLead is helpful for temporary use.

Yes you are correct a harness will help you assist her as needed. I recommend a Help me Up harness. These are well made and although costly are worth every penny. I like that you are keeping her up and walking to maintain her muscles. I prefer several short walks and often just around your yard or close by so if she's too tired to keep going you are close to home. If she's not on arthritis pain medication adding some may improve her mobility and comfort. As for the cognitive dysfunction I use Neutricks a supplement that I find effective. If Elie is overweight losing a few pounds will help also. In addition to walks she may be more interested in life if you work on teaching tricks for treats, doing obedience like heeling, sitting and downs and playing with toys or balls to keep her engaged. Having a senior dog is a blessing so make the most of your time together. Thanks for using Boop by Petco to help you care for Elie.

My personal preference, completed unrelated to Boop by Petco or Petco, would be Cosequin ( http://www.cosequin.com/dogs/ ) or Dasuquin ( http://www.dasuquin.com/en/products/#dog ). Both are made by Nutromax Labs.

The lifting aid will help both the front and rear legs. Not all dogs will take to a wheel chair and it’s difficult to get them in it. If he’s strong on the front legs then the wheelchair will work. If he’s weak in the front legs he won’t be able to stand. I would start with the harness and then if he’s gets to walking normally in the front legs then consider adding a wheelchair. Dogs can only be put in the wheelchair for about five to ten minutes at a time, several times a day, since it’s very tiring when they are out of shape. Also you need to be strong to get his rear legs lifted in and out of it. Work with the standing and walking with assistance in the harness. If he improves slowly then hopefully he won’t need the wheelchair. Also if you are able to purchase a real Help em Up harness, by Blue Dog designs, they are easier to use that what you’ve shown in the photograph. Thanks and good luck with Toby.

I am not familiar with Dr. Jeff's products. So sorry. I'm not really sure what you are looking for in a supplement? An immune system booster? Just a vitamin? Probiotics? Skin/Coat health? Joint health? I would recommend this one for Immune health: https://worldtails.securevetsource.com/itemView/view/198944_HomeDelivery.pml?productId=133838 Pet Tabs are the tried and true multivitamin for dogs. It has been around for a long time. Excellent company and product with no previous issues. Cost effective. Very palatable so dogs like it. I use it with my own dogs. https://worldtails.securevetsource.com/itemView/view/198944_HomeDelivery.pml?productId=100461 I hope I answered your question. If you would like to post again with more specifics as to what you are looking for we may be able to help you better.
