[nagdu] cleaning the harness

Mon Apr 19 15:11:58 UTC 2010

Hi Alex,
The staining occured on light yellow Labs on their shoulders - the same 
place where the rivets attached the harness handle rings to the body of the 
harness.  If the staining is around the dog's chest area, back and stomach, 
then it could be the leather.
