[nagdu] harnesses

[Susan Jones]

Marsha,
Get yourself a harness from Paw Power Creations.
You'll never look back!
The handle is attached with those tough plastic clips that you find on baby
equipment and camping equipment.
No chance the handle would detach while working.

Subject: [nagdu] harnesses

Hi Listers,

 

I know we have discussed this subject a lot on here, so forgive me for
bringing it up again. So I called SE yesterday to see if they would even
think of developing a harness for a grad, who needs a removable handle. And
they said they have tried, but can't make one that the handle does not
deattach while working the dog. So here is my dilemma. With me in cars, and
on the go just much more in general. I am in desperate need of a harness
that has a removable handle. I have seen the new GDB harness, with the quick
release handles. Does anyone have one? And have you noticed if the handle
deattaches while working the dog? And is it possible for me, a guide dog
user to get my hands on a GDB harness? My first pup was from GDB, but when I
retired her, they took back the harness. But that was not an harness with
the quick release handle either. Didn't know if anyone else has a dog from
one school, but uses a harness from a different school. Do the schools frown
upon this? Exchanging of harness and dogs? If this doesn't work, I am
seriously thinking of purchasing a PawPowers harness. 

 

Thanks for letting me ask questions,

Marsha
