    ^THAT guys right 4 legs means at you'll need at least 4 bracelets per leg. I think the statement about the bear MIGHT have been exaggerated but if it holds any truth 12 should get the job done IM sure the more you can get on him the better if you keep them even i tyed this but my dog keep eating them before i could get them all on so only his center was balanced this messed up him pretty bad so we had to get him drunk to puke them back up mom said i shouldnt want my dog ballanced because its a sin but the grand dad said dogs liked to be balanced but i think he was talking about somethign else cause the little blue pills he was taking just made benny happy btw benny is my 133t dog hell pwn you cause hes like a lv 30 half orc mage and always wins when we put him in the trash can with the neighbors dogs daddy just laughs when i put his boxing gloves on but he knows its all in good fun i gotz to go now krazy lady

    You are benefiting from the placebo effect. You think that wearing a "special" bracelet will do something for your balance, and lo-and-behold your balance improves. The bracelets really do nothing.

    If you want them to work for your dog, you have to somehow convince your dog that these bracelets are going to improve his balance. Then, when he believes they will work, his balance will improve.

    Of course, you can't explain concepts like this to a dog, so putting these bracelets on him will accomplish nothing. The only reason they seem to work on you is because you want to believe they work on you.

    Is it safe? Sure. Is it foolish and a waste of money? You bet.

    Won't do any good.

    You can kid yourself it's great but you can't fool a dog.

    The dog would probably be irritated ith something round it's leg.

    Yes, you can.

    But you shouldn't.

    Dogs have 4 legs, and that's enough for balance.
