• Superior Safety & Ergonomic Design: The lifter supports the cow’s entire body evenly from chest to rear, helping reduce stress on any single area—especially important when animals are injured or weak. A built-in cut-out allows the udder to hang freely, which prevents discomfort during lifting and avoids unnecessary pressure on sensitive areas. This thoughtful design makes the lifter suitable for longer recovery sessions, reducing the risk of complications.
  
  
• Built Tough for Large Breeds: This XL version is built specifically for large animals such as beef cattle, Holsteins, and even draft horses. It's roughly five inches wider and longer than the standard model, giving more surface support for bigger frames. With a lifting capacity of up to 2,200 lbs, it provides peace of mind when handling your heaviest livestock, ensuring they are lifted safely without straining the gear or the animal.
  
  
• Ease of Use & Portability: This lifter is light enough to carry where needed and includes a storage bag for convenience. It’s designed for easy use—just roll the cow onto the sling, tighten the straps, and attach the hooks to your loader or lift. One person can manage the process, making it practical for small teams or quick solo response in emergencies.
  
  
• Multi-Purpose Recovery Tool: The Coburn XL Cow Lifter isn’t just for emergencies—it’s ideal for post-birth weakness, temporary paralysis, or any condition that requires lifting for treatment or repositioning. It helps protect the animal from further injury by lifting them evenly and securely. Having this tool on hand improves recovery outcomes and reduces strain on both the animal and the handler.

Benefits of the Westguard Hip Lift 

• Helps Cows Stand Up Safely: The lift holds the cow firmly around the hips and lifts her gently. This gives her the support she needs to get back on her feet slowly and safely. It helps avoid more harm to her legs and gives her a better chance to recover.
  
  
• Minimal Dipped Padding for Basic Protection: The hip rings include a small amount of dipped padding to give some protection while lifting. It helps reduce pressure on the hip bones but is kept minimal to keep the lift simple and effective.
  
  
• Fits Different Cow Sizes: The lift can be adjusted to fit both small and large cows. It opens wide and can hold up to 1,800 lbs, so you can use it for many different animals in your herd without needing separate tools.

• Easy to Use and Take Care Of: The handles are protected so dirt and water don’t get inside. You don’t need to oil it often or do much to keep it working. Just grab it when needed, and it’s ready to go—saving you time and effort when every minute counts.
