[nagdu] program harnesses vs pawpower creations harnesses

[Margo and Arrow]

I wonder if Pawpower Creations makes an offset handle harness.  I need to
use an offset handle with Arrow.

I need to look again at the website.

A lot of the reason I got what is now a PawPower Creations harness can be
summed up in two words: removable handle. 

With Chet, I used a long handle, and the handle hung off his back end by
about a half inch or a bit more. Consequently, the handle would get stuck
under dashboards and all manner of things. Eventually, the corners of the
grip got eally ugly and ragged and split at the seams. I fully expect that,
in time, new dog will inherit the Paw Power harness, though of course not
right away. I'm giving some thought to having mine retrofitted with the
American style "ears"; mine is the sports harness, which I like a lot. The
only thing is since the handle moves completely freely, it is possible to
overwalk your dog if you're not careful to avoid doing so. This was
something I had not thought about when ordering, and in reality, it's only a
very small thing and I may not even bother about it.
