We recommend an introduction time of 2-4 hours/day for the first 3-5 days to get the body used to the effects, but the length of introduction can vary between individuals. Use your judgment to determine when ready for longer use. For the best results, after the introduction time, use the products for longer periods of time daily – such as overnight. Every 3-4 weeks we recommend not using the products for 3-6 days. The period of discontinued use is for you to assess/reassess the progress of your horse or dog and even yourself. Products may be worn for a period of 1-24 hours a day after the introductory period. For use with dogs and horses, we recommend removing our products for 3-4 hours a day to give the animal a break from the effects.

Price range: $49.00 through $89.00
Stay ahead of the chill with our stylish and functional Dog Rug
Can the products be used in hot temperatures?
Yes. We do recommend using the products in the cooler parts of the day and for shorter periods of time during the warmer summer months, however, this is your personal preference. Use your best judgement when using our products on your animals on a hot day. Using them for smaller amounts of time throughout the day is better than not using them at all.
After I have discontinued using my Back on Track product and then decide later that I would like to begin using it again, do I need to start over with the introductory period?
Depending on how long it has not been used, it may be necessary to start the introductory period again. Use common sense and see how your body feels and reacts.
How long do Back on Track products remain effective?
The effectiveness of BOT products will not change over time since you cannot wash out the Welltex® fibers infused in the threads. If you have been using our products for a long period of time and feel you don’t see the same results as you did at the beginning, simply take a break for a week and try again. While using our products over time you may get used to the Welltex® effect and start to think you are no longer being helped.
Why use Back on Track products when there are no injuries?
The improved blood circulation from the use of BOT products will help to maintain the over-all well-being of the body tissues, even in health. It may also help prevent injuries in the future by improving over-all resilience of the body.
If using Back on Track products causes increased circulation and swelling occurs, will it go away?
Take a break from wearing the product until the swelling goes down, then begin using it again. Wear it for only a few hours to minimize the chance of swelling again until the body gets used to the increased blood circulation from wearing the product.
What is the difference between Back on Track products and magnet technology?
The Welltex material utilizes the body’s own energy and reflects that energy back into the tissues as far-infrared wavelengths which penetrate deeper than just warmth to affect the tissues and the blood vessels, whereas products with magnet technology utilize the magnetic field.
How do I wash Back on Track products?
Machine wash in warm water and a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softener or bleach. Hang to dry.
Will Back on Track products shrink?
No, providing you follow the washing instructions that come with each product. Products are not to be put into a clothes dryer and bleach should not be used in the washing process.
Can liniments be used with Back on Track products?
Caution is advised when using Welltex® products simultaneously with liniment, since some liniments may amplify the Welltex® effect. Use the product only as directed and consult a doctor if symptoms persist. Do not use products that will generate heat. Use your own common sense to see how you or your animal reacts.
How much support do the Back on Track brace products provide?
Back on Track brace products provide limited support. They are designed as therapeutic products that increase blood circulation and in turn may help reduce inflammation in muscles and joints. Our self fastening Knee Brace and Back Braces provide more support than our other therapeutic brace products, but they should not be used to replace physician prescribed support braces.
Will I experience the Welltex® effect if my Back on Track product is worn over other clothing?
BOT products need to be next to the skin or hair of animals for the product to give the best effect. However, the Back Brace can be worn over a thin shirt and the Mattress Overlay should be used under regular sheets.
Can I use Welltex® products while pregnant?
No. Do not use during pregnancy.

My dog has mesh coats for summer/indoor use and the multi season for winter—and now he has this one for sort of mid season, lol. It’s the perfect weight for cold, rainy days and keeps his hips nice and warm.
Ali –
There is nothing wrong with this rug, however, I prefer the multi-season better. I find it fits my dogs better than this rug and I like the material better.
Marni Brown (verified owner) –
This blanket is wonderful! My dog is cozy and happy

Stephanie Schurr (verified owner) –
Fit was way bigger than the measurements suggested, resulting in a coat that was so big that it was sloppy, even when straps were tightened all the way. Unfortunately cannot return because it was bought on sale. It would be nice if a straight exchange for size was allowable, especially if the purchaser was willing to pay for shipping. My dog cannot wear the coat on a walk because it comes off with that much movement. Other than the size, however, great product and really fast delivery.

This is a high quality dog coat that fits my Miniature Schnauzer perfectly -it even has the opening for his tail to fit through which is important for dogs with upright tails.

Good point about the upright tails April.
Thanks for mentioning this 🙂

BOT dog blanket is truly tough durable material. The jackets have endured -20 weather, barbed wire, and anything else you can find on the farm as well as the dogs rough housing. No rips or holes kept my dogs warm happy and running full speed ahead!
You may experience shipping issues but the customer service of BOT are unreal and will help get your package to you ASAP.
Overall very happy ONCE I got my product.

My old boy loves his coat. I’ve noticed a difference in how he’s getting around so much that I put it on him in the house for short periods as well!

awww soo cute.
He might like one of our pet mats or the dog blanket to lay on as well…..
Cynthia (verified owner) –
Ordered one for our 13 year old, he has a few hip issues and that is why we went with the product. It covers well, functions great, and is true to size. The material is highly waterproof, light weight, and well made. Within a week of wearing the dog has made improvements. He is more active, his hips are not as stressed, and we are all happy. Shipping was fast and efficient, too.
Back On Track –
YAE!! That is soo nice to hear thank you Cynthia 🙂

Very happy with this jacket. Have a lab that hates getting wet but as soon as he sees his jacket he is happy to go out in the rain/ snow. I also like the reflectors on the sides for night time walking. And the fact there is a zipper for the tail to poke through. Overall love this dog coat and look forward to using it through the winter.
Catherine Lines Antoniuk (verified owner) –
My dog likes it but fits extremely long despite measuring for it.
Back On Track –
hi Catherine
We do have the Video on the Website with a demonstration of how to measure for our dog coats.
Sometimes we have found customers confuse the inches/centimeter aspect which creates such an issue.
We are not saying this is what happened but it may be a contributing factor 🙂

I bought a 37 for my mini schnauzer who is 14″ long and has a natural tail. He’s 17.5″ chest girth, I have to tighten it all the way and it might be a touch long but I tried an older 34 on him and it was too short, and he is still growing. I am happy with my purchase. I tired it on my girl, 13″ long and 18″ chest girth, docked tail and it works but I would probably size down for her as she is fully grown and there is lots of room in the chest. I use both snug pulls all the way/
Back On Track –
Well done on this one.
Hope he loves it.

Keeps my wee dog cozy between agility runs!

Happy Holidays to you both 🙂
Cheramie (verified owner) –
I bought the 37 so my 14″ long mini schnauzer has space for his natural tail. Ita good that there’s options to synch it up as he’s a pup and it’s needed. I tried this on my 13″ mini schnauzer and I would size down to the 34″ for her. They have 17.5″ chest girth and are 14/15lbs.

Well-made and designed coat. The underbelly part helps to keep down some of the grit splashed up during walks on wet days. They are easy to put on and my dogs don’t fuss when I put them on.
Back On Track –
True that about the underbelly part.
Keep your dog AND you happy 🙂
Mary D. (verified owner) –
I love the coat- I wanted to buy the mesh one as well, in the same size, but it was sold out which was disappointing
Back On Track –
happy you are loving the new Dog Rug 🙂
JOANNE (verified owner) –
This is a great coat. It is easy to get on and off the dog, and offers far more protection than other coats. I even put it on my dogs, with sore hips and backs, to wear when they are resting inside the house to give them some therapeutic relief. Highly recommend.

This is soo important for our customers to remember our products offer the ‘pain management’ aspect that is what sets our products apart.
Thank you for sharing about the physical benefits your dog is experiencing 🙂

It says $59 on review but I paid $76! However it’s a great coat and whenever I stick my hand inside the coat she always feels warm. Even in the -25 temps we are having this week.

Hi Claire,
The cost varies in accordance with the size of the Dog Coat, we just wanted to clarify this price variance for you and other customers.
Thank you for the mention so we could address this, all feedback is always appreciated.
